Hanging out
At home

That's what we mostly do

And look forward to

These cold Friday winter nights
PS: You're getting better with the Selfie,  belloching!

We are now at the end of the eighth month little pebble. The book, “What to Expect When You’re Expecting” says that you are now about 18 inches long and weigh 5 pounds.  Growth, especially of the brain, is great in this period and you can now see and hear.  Most of your systems are well-developed but your lungs may still be immature.

Mommy and Mildred (your nanny) have been hard at work the past weekends preparing the flat. Voila, here’s how it looks now!

Mommy searched high and low for your first layette. She's read that you will be focusing on the colors white, black, then red in your few few weeks. Imagine how pleased Mommy was when she was able to find this exact color combination.

We're also giving you a head start on the alphabet, little pebble. That wall quilt should catch your attention in the morning :)  Your lola said that you'll probably come out from Mommy's tummy already with a Masters degree.







adieu, happy bachelorette pad

When Daddy first saw Mommy’s flat (which he called a shoebox) he said to her, “You really planned (note the past tense) your entire life just working and travelling.” Mommy had to extol the virtues of her flat which is so convenient to clean, easy to lock up when the travelling bug bites, and near but not-that-near to her workplace.

Ever since Mommy and Daddy received confirmation that you’re on the way, Mommy had been slowly packing up her books and storing her clothes and shoes to make room for you while your own nursery is still being prepared.

Mommy today officially closed a chapter in her life. Paintings, which she's picked up from her travels, had to be put down as she is afraid that they might accidentally fall on you. She’s got you closets for your stuff.  She’s made space in her shelves for your books.

Three weeks to go buddy!  Mommy and Daddy are counting the days of your arrival!

We are almost there little pebble! Last week, you were already 33 weeks! Our “Pregnancy from Preconception to Birth” book, says that you weighed about 4.5 pounds and measured approximately 17.5 inches from head to toe.

Mommy has read that the first colors that you will especially pay attention to are red, white, and black. Mommy has been doing some changes in the flat for your coming and you can be sure, you will come home to a red, black, themed place, in the meantime that Mommy and Daddy are still getting ready your own room.

Mommy and Daddy are not particularly zoo lovers so there’s no reason why they should assault you with an animal/pet/zoo-themed room. They feel that you should have a room that reflects your origins and something that will slowly evolve with you as you grow up.

Here’s a couple of ideas from the net… what do you think little one?
