We took advantage of the beautiful weather we had recently and took Hailey out for her first walk. It felt great to get some fresh air with the little one. Of course, she was out cold - the beauty of motion!

Hailey had more visitors too. Uncle Stan and aunt Donna, uncle Vishal and great aunt Meena, and great nana (great grandpa) dropped by to visit Hailey.

We had a modified Indian naming celebration for Hailey on February 22nd. Traditionally, the letter of a baby’s first name is chosen to correspond with the first letter of a scripture or verse from the Granth Sahib, our holy book. While we selected the name in a more western manner, we did conduct the other parts of the ceremony, which includes eating some specific foods and of course showering the baby with gifts. Hailey received her first piece of jewelry.

Hailey visited nana (grandpa Murli) and nani (grandma Devi) for the first time on March 6th. Since it was Hailey’s first visit, we had a special dinner and again she was showered with gifts. However, this time mommy got something too!

We would like to announce the arrival of Hailey Alexandra Strohm, born on February 17th at 6:24 a.m. at the Credit Valley Hospital in Mississauga. Hailey weighed in at 7 lb 4 oz. Our little bundle of joy has quickly stolen the hearts of everyone around her and has us all wrapped around her tiny little finger!
