HELLO STRANGERS!

First of all - let me say CONGRATS to Neil and Samir! I'm super excited for the both you. Neil - I hope you aren't a stranger now that you will be in Atlanta AND at Emory. Now there are three of us Amin's at Emory - we're taking over. Samir - you're going to LOVE DC. It's a great city AND you should know that you will be super close to Kavina and Neilam :) - You know they'll show you a good time.

Everyone else - HELLLLOO. It's been a long time since we've gotten any updates from folks on what is going on. So PLEASE post so we can try to be in touch better.

My life update: Justin and I are very close to purchasing a house - we have closing scheduled for the end of April. We're super excited, and hope to one day be able to furnish the house :). I think once we move our stuff in (all of it has been in storage for about 1 1/2 year now) and get the baby's room ready, I'll feel a bit more settled. I'm a nervous wreck as of late (poor Justin), b/c I've been feeling like we're soo unprepared for the arrival of "project aminowings". We are going on a trip to Jamaica for our "babymoon" in the beginning of May and then we're heading to Detroit for my cousin Sheetal's wedding memorial day weekend. I'm VERY excited about the wedding, but also VERY excited that Niju and Reshma's new baby will also be born that SAME weekend !!!! I can't wait to meet him.

A bunch of you have been asking for photo's of me preggo - unfortunately I DOUBT that will happen any time soon :). BUT, rest assurred - I am growing pretty HUGE as the days go by; Roopal is shocked to see the transformation :). Dad is just giddy with excitement which is great. I'm only 22 weeks and have gained a lofty 16 lbs! All mostly in my midsection. It feels like I'm holding a balloon in my belly.

OK - enough about my life - tell me how you all are doing! I've heard that all the kids are growing so quickly and are all so smart!! I'd love photo's and updates whenever you get the chance.

Love,
Sonal
