Nice and clean

Merry Christmas

Here we all are together on Christmas day. I have a feeling this won't be one of the most memorable xmas days for Papatya, but it will be for us. (Though it was actually 27 December as Uncle David didn't arrive till then.)

Someone doesn't want to be Santa!

Papatya and her Grandparents

Papatya and her mum

Look at those wee hands! The pose is genetic, there's a photo of me at about the same age with the same pose... Like mother, like daughter!

Papatya and her baba

Ahh, how sweet. Papatya and her baba. This was taken at the hospital the day after her birth.

Papatya means Daisy in English, in case you were wondering.

Hello everyone. This is a picture of Papatya Michelle Cilekar taken at 16 hours old.

She was born on 30/11/2005 at 5.30pm in Ankara, Turkey. Vital statistics at birth - weight: 3.608kgs (7 pounds 9 ounces), length: 50cms (most of it in her legs!)

She's a lovely baby (not that I'm biased...) and Musti and I are loving being parents. Luckily both of us are off work and my mum's here so we have a good team to look after Papatya at all hours.

Hope to add a few more photos soon and updates on what's happening here.
