Welcome!

Poupéepishi (Kalapi) gave birth to a baby boy by Caesarean section on 20 February 2008 at 3.53 a.m.

He has been named Durga Das Roy. Any suggestions for daaknaam?

He weighs 6.5 pounds. According to his proud grandmother, he has "very good facial features with black eyes, and has a lot of black hair." Chhotoamma, when you all have a little time on your hands, do remember we are all waiting for his photos.

In the meantime, welcome, little cousin. From your extended family all across the world.

  1. Cute note, Ayesha. Kaka used to call Arka, "Arka, Parka". May be Parka then! Frankly, it should be the new mother's prerogative. We'll all have our private nicknames. For Kaka, it's like a great uncle at 78, then grandpa at 80!
    Amazing how much a baby can pull everyone together. Ayesha, do you remember the brand name of the carrier I brought you and Bheblu?

    Please add our litle cousin's ticker-tape on the blog.

  3. Kindly convey my regards to "Durga-Das-babu". Wouldn't dare call him by frivolous names, let alone nicknames. Somebody christened "Durga Das" must be duly venerated!
