I just celebrated Rishi’s 3rd birthday this past weekend and it basically gave me all the feels. I can’t believe how quickly time has flown by, because it honestly feels like I just got pregnant with him. Babies don’t keep y’all, and I think it’s only going to get harder and harder as time goes on.

Nonetheless, last year I had asked Aria a series of questions just to see what her answers would be, and I figured it might be fun to do it to both of them this year and record their answers to see how they will change again next year! If you’ve never tried this, I highly recommend it! It’s also hilarious to see what their answers might be!

RISHI

My sweet, vehicle (airplanes, trains, car, trucks, etc) loving boy who is one of the naughtiest in the land, but loves oh so hard. He’s my cuddly one and I soak it in all day, every day because I know one day it won’t be like this.  He’s the jokester of the house. Always looking to lighten the mood in every which way, and just be funny! His hugs are the absolute tightest, and I’m pretty sure he tells me he loves me about 10 times a day.  Dancing and music are his JAM, so dance parties are a pretty regular activity around here!

ARIA

Now onto my sweet angel. You can read her last year’s questionnaire here… 

Oh my Aria. My strong willed, smart, caring baby girl. She’s my responsible, rule follower, who is just as stubborn as me. And from what everyone else tells me, apparently she looks more and more like me every day.  Can’t believe she’s 4 and a half. Feels like I just had those moments in the hospital as I held her close right after she was born, and here we are as she heads in Pre-K in just a few short months. Watching her morph into her own little personality has been my absolute favorite thing. Obsessed with coloring, painting, and art, “working out” to Zumba Kids, reading, and doing activity worksheets. Give here these things, and she’s the most content. She’s slowly become my little helper around the house and it’s the sweetest thing ever as she helps to fold laundry or empty the dishwasher! My little rainbow baby girl. 

WHAT IS YOUR NAME? 

Aria Sengupta

HOW OLD ARE YOU?

Uhhhh…4.

WHEN IS YOUR BIRTHDAY?

In…November. November 6th.

Purple, and pink, and blue, and yellow.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE FOOD?

Macaroni.

Gia (A little girl in her class.)

You Don’t Know You’re Beautiful. (By One Direction)

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE MOVIE?

The Lion King.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE ANIMAL?

Unicorn. Rainbow Unicorn. (She just can’t quit her unicorn obsession.)

WHAT ARE YOU SCARED OF?

Skeletons. (This happened because of this certain show we saw in Mexico on our vacation a couple of weeks ago where they had an event dedicated to Dia De Los Muertos, and one of the skeletons got really close to her and she was not a fan to say the least. And since then, she’s legit terrified. )

WHAT MAKES YOU SO HAPPY?

Presents. For my birthday. (Bahahahahaha. My little girl is oh so honest. )

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE PLACE TO GO?

Catch air (A bouncy house type place that she adores). 

WHAT’S YOUR FAVORITE TOY?

Mimi (her unicorn stuffed animal that was given to her from one of her close friends, Braelynn)

WHAT DO YOU WANT TO BE WHEN YOU GROW UP?

Take care of babies. (She’s been on this kick for a while…always talks about her current pediatrician and how she wants to be just like her.)

WHAT DOES LOVE MEAN?

Giving you hugs. (My kids like to make sure I always fall into a puddle of mush.)

They are the bestest of friends and it makes me so happy to know I produced two little humans on this planet who love each other so much! Every morning, Rishi crawls out of his bed and goes straight to Aria’s room, and just lays down next to her. She just holds him and they tell each other stories before they both get up, and head to go play together until I finally come upstairs. I hope their bond is always this strong, and that they share secrets with each other.
