It was a fun-filled November for the boys as Papa, Grandma and Aunt Amisha visited for Thanksgiving. Also, their Uncle Sarvish was in town on a corporate training program so he stopped by for Thanksgiving as well. A full house!

Below are several pictures from this month. The boys loved riding their new bikes all over the place and Papa and Grandma had to keep up!

Fall is here and the colors are beautiful!

This past month was quite a blast for the boys. They went to Austin to take part in their uncle Oak’s wedding!

They got to meet several people including many of our relatives from India and several other friends. In the images below, you will see pictures of their cousins Ananjay, Ananya and Aiden (he is from London so we called him ‘London Aiden).

Once they got back home, the boys spent quite a bit of time riding around on their bicycles. We are especially grateful to Amtryke for providing Aiden with a special bike so he can ride with his brothers.

stone! 5 years old! The Trips had their birthday party at Best Gymnastics in Lewisville, TX. The facility was rented out entirely for there birthday party so they had full reign of the entire place! Of course, the party had a “Lightning McQueen” feel to it.

They got soooo many presents that we had to open a few each day over the course of a few days. Now, we have to work on getting the house back in order since there are toys and other junk all over the place! A few pics from this month.

Looking at his new toy

Wow!

They love it

This is probably the last month the boys will have to splash around in the pool. Even though it is warm in September, they don’t like the water unless it is very warm.

Next month, we will be at “Oak’s” wedding in Austin, TX and it will be a special treat for the boys. They are already looking forward to it. Here are some images

Having fun

Bucket head?

Is it too bright, Ethan?

Now what?

Ethan has no fat on his body

Even though it is summer, the weather has been quite mild in comparison to prior years. In fact, we were able to get some casual family pictures that turned out quite nice! (See below)

The boys also had Grandma and Papa visit and they too the Trips to Legoland. This was one of their favorite places to go although it was very, very crowded. The boys built little lego cars and raced them on the ramps.

Aiden is doing quite well in terms of health. He is consistently able to chew various foods and can even chew his allergy pill. Keep praying he keeps going!
