Pictures of Priya and Annaprashana and Videos

This is Priya during her Annaprashana, (first feeding).  After the feeding they have a game in which the baby chooses an item and this is supposed to be what the go towards in life.  My Daughter choose flowers during this Annaprashana.  (This is actually her second Annaprashana, the first one was done at the temple on Wednesday and this was on Sunday following the Wednesday)

This is a family friend Bhavani, who is a family friend and one of the sweetest people on earth.  She always helped my students with their Dental issues (She is a Dentist) for free or at cost.

She has a matching saree with Priya dress and they looked like mother and daughter.



This is Siva and Bhavani with Priya.  Siva is my cousin brothers wife and they came over to Detroit from DC and surprised us for Priyas function.  Their daughter got accepted into Univ of VA and it was parents weekend, but they skipped it so they could hang out with Priya in Detroit.  Sorry Sravya.


It was my moms birthday 2 days later and we had a cake for her and as you can see the cake we had a question candle for her, since no one knows how old she is, or acts I can add.


This is a video of Priya and her uncle Sampath, who plays with her for at least 10 hours a day.



This is the actual video of Priya during her annaprashana picking out something.  She actually touches the Bhagavad Gita first, but that was right next her right hand, but in my view she actually grabbed the flowers first.



This was my mom feeding Pirya during Annaprashana.  Priya loves payasam and as much as the gang gives her she is gobbling up.



Priya finally learns to roll over.



More Priya rolling her.



This was in the evening of the day that she learned to roll over and apparently in India, they have the baby roll over Bobbatlu (Indian Sweet).  If you look closely you can see the Bobbatlu's below her.  They put wax paper over the Bobbatlu and then had her roll over.  No clue on this tradition or what meaning it has, but Priya was pooped from rolling over all day and she did cooperate in their game at all.



I know what the title say, but this was the evening of when she was rolling over all day and this was another video of Priya trying to rollover on Bobbatlu.
