surprise.....!

wife started getting contrctions on Tuesday night. she was complaing that i should called the Dr. i did not get panic, but was little tense, still i carefully checked the contraction intervals. it was 10 mins apart. called the Dr as he told us to call him when it was around 7 mins interval. he asked us to go to the hospital. hmmm.. wife and myself left the home leaving my son and my mother alone. good that son was sleeping :) now i'm father of 2. little one was born on Oct 29, 2008 with 3.5kg. still in the hopital. mom and baby are doing fine. feeling sooooooooo happy :)

Vegetable Roti !

came home ending a busy day at work. my wife & my mother (she is with us to help my wife as my wife is expecting) are making "vegetable roti"s. wow, after a long time (my wife used to make them before she got pregnant) i'm going to have them. remembering all good Sri Lankan foods.

new name..

As you may know, we are expecting our second kid on Nov 01st, 2008. now my wife is working hard to find a *good & nice* name for the new kid.. what do you think? should we use our own or get it from an astrologist? i like our own one.. so asked her to find a name what she feels good. i believe having a name based on astrology does not make a person better, rather how the person gets educated and the env he/she grows up matters lot. have you heard the song "pin malu wale, kusal hami malu banawa" sang by Sun Flower.

weekend :(

you know what i am thinking.. we should have three (3) working days. i know you may think why this guy is saying "he needs 4 days to rest:) ". in fact, my definition is 3 days to work, 2 days to rest because of 3 day work and 2 days for personal/private works. i guess it is fair, isn't it?
