Bed Rest...Errr.

I guess I should have posted this a few weeks ago but I forgot. Many of you already know that I got put on bedrest nearly 3 weeks ago (at 26 weeks gestation). I will most likely be on it until the end of the pregnancy.

Everyone thinks its so awful but I have been enjoying sleeping in, reading a ton of books & magazines, watching tv, and online shopping :) Somedays I do get bored though.

I am doing well and feel good. Our little girlies are doing good too. Now that I am on bedrest the contractions have stopped. Only when I go to the doctors they start up again because its a big production for me now to get ready and go somewhere.


Our moms are helping with bringing us food since Akhil is challenged in the kitchen!

Baby Puja

Two weeks ago Akhil's mom held a small baby puja for us at the temple to bless our baby girls. It was a nice and beautiful prayer service for our little princesses.

My mom took a bunch of pictures for me on her camera so it has taken me a while to get the digital pics from her.

Here are a few of the pictures she took of the ceremony.


I like all these pictures because I don't look enormous!







As if he ever feeds me! Only at pujas!




And if you are really interested in how huge I am right now...here you go!

Introducing.....Mr & Mrs Ramineni!

Shreem and Praful got married this weekend here in Cleveland. We had a great time and the bride and groom looked beautiful!

I didn't get as many pictures as I wished to but here are some pictures that I took while they were getting ready!

Star Sightings!

So this weekend Akhil's sister Shreem got married downtown. It happened to fall on the same weekend of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction cermony. I was really excited to see some famous singers! There was such a buzz about who was staying at our hotel so I was pumped for my star sightings!


The stars we saw this weekend at our hotel were Metallica, Tony Parker, Run DMC, Cameron Diaz, Red Hot Chili Pepper's Flea, Aerosmith's Joe Perry, and Sam Moore.


This was the only good chance I got to get a picture with someone which is with James Hetfield from Metallica!




I could have gotten a picture with Flea because we rode the elevator with him but I was too starstruck since we both just checked in and were on our ways to our rooms. I did also see him right before the wedding began but I couldn't break away to get a picture! :(

Pictures from the wedding to come!

Pregnancy - 25 Weeks

Lately I have been going to to my doctor every other week and I will be getting an ultrasound done every month from now on. Our baby girls are growing well and thankfully are very healthy! And I have been feeling great so far too!

Here are some pictures of our little muffins! :)

Baby A is the bigger baby who is scrunched up at the bottom. She really has no room and is curled up in a ball. She lets her sister take up all the space in my uterus! But since she is pretty chill I don't think she cares.
Here you will see her side profile of her face on the right side and the round ball is her abdomen.


Baby B is the little wild monkey living inside me! She takes up all the space and is SOOO active. She was kicking me so hard the other day for an hour straight I was soo bruised and sore! :)

Here is you can see her face a bit - her eye sockets and nose.

The girls really hate the ultrasounds. (I think all babies don't like them) I think the sonographic waves are too loud for them and they curl up and hide whenever we start the ultrasound. So thats why we didn't get very good pictures of them. My poor girls.
