What to take to the hospital

For those of you who know Kaniz, you know that she really likes making lists. With all the preparation for our +1, I think I may have gotten on the Excel bandwagon as well. We made a (rather large) list of things to pack in our hospital bag and I thought I'd share that with you (feel free to copy/paste into your own spreadsheet :)

A tennis ball???
Isn't that a dangerous item in the hands of a labouring woman?

Ok, so I feel like I'm cheating a little bit here by posting six months worth of pictures at once, but this is the only way I have a remote chance of catching up. As you can see from the pictures, the Rizvi family definitely had a busy few months.. between birthdays, engagement parties, anniversaries, and family outings, we kept a full social calendar. Also, as you can tell from the picture above, Samarah and Syra are really starting to play well together. Ok, maybe 'well' isn't the right word, but they do have their moments. Syra definitely has a more forceful personality, which effectively neutralizes the size advantage Samarah has. I'm sure the fighting will only escalate as they get older. Stay tuned. In the meantime, enjoy the pictures from Jan-June, 2011!

Well, another year, another Rizvi baby. Now that we are about to welcome baby #3, it's time to retire this blog and start a new one. For continuing updates on our family, please visit kanizandabbasplus3.com . I feel as if I should promise that I will update the new site more often, but I'd hate to break yet another blog-related promise! :) Anyway, see you on the new site!

So, we bought our crib! We had our hearts set on the BabyMod Parklane from Walmart.com (only) in the States, which is very modern looking, the right price for us and got good reviews on Apartment Therapy. (The other option I had listed previously was the StorkCraft Ariel , also from Walmart - a little more traditional looking but we had decided against it.) I still think both of these options are great though, especially if you live in the US. Anyhow, on the spur of the moment, we decided to stop at Nestings , a very cute store on Yonge to check out their showroom. We walk in and I see "Winter Sale 20% off" on practically everything! We spotted the AP Lollipop Crib in Weathered Black, off in the corner and we both really liked it. It seemed to combine both the modern look and the traditional ...
