Atif got his first................and only......motorcycle yesterday. His little eyes were so big and he was so excited when he saw it. Sooooooooo cute!!!









These are just some random pictures over the last few weeks. Now that I have finally posted I am gonna try to be better about putting updated pictures up sooner.













































































































Last Sunday we had a picnic at the park by our house with some friends. There kids are precious and Ali and Shazia have been friends of ours for a long time. The kids love to fish. Ok so they didnt catch anything.............next time maybe!



















































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































Ok so it has been forever since I updated my blog. Since we came home from our trip I have been so so busy with everything and Atif really doesnt let me on the computer so much. But we had the most wonderful trip. We were gone alomost 2 months and I tell ya I could have stayed longer. Dubai is the most fantastic place and the best part was meeting my Sister in law and her beautiful family. The kids who Aysha calls her brothers were adorable and we miss them terribly. I know we will see them again soon but everyday we remember the times that we spent with them. We laugh at all the fun and great things we did. My sister in law (Usma) is an amazing cook and her husband ( Ahad) had Aysha eating more fruits and vegetables. I dont know his trick yet but we are trying to do what he did and it isnt working. So we tell Aysha if you dont eat all your fruits and vegetables and drink your milk we are gonna call Big Baba (that is what aysha calls him) and msot of the time she does it. I can't even begin to put all 400 plus pictures on here but I will put some of the highlights. We spent some time in Pakistan visiting family also and that was so so special. This trip was the first time for us to see Amir's brothers kids and Amir's mom and Dad got to see Atif for the first time. I have a very special place in my heart for my family in Pakistan. I pray everyday that the time comes quickly for us to all see each other again soon. When you have grandparents that far away from their grandkids you realize how much they miss. I can send pictures but it just isnt the same. So anyway I know that we will all see each other soon. Amirs Mom is doing much better, health wise, so that is wonderful news. I know Aysha misses her and talks about her Dadi and Dada and many cousins everyday!!
