A New Year

Just a few more pictures to share as we turn the corner into 2008... First, Heuris and his first American stocking experience:

We didn't have any socks big enough to fit all the loot in, so instead Santa used our shoes. Evidently Santa shops at Trader Joe's as we both received a hefty amount of TJ's chocolate. Smart Santa.

Next, a photo taken at the end of December in front of our mango tree, after I hit 30 weeks:








Hard to believe we've got less than 8 weeks left to go until our scheduled date-of-arrival. Everyone here says the belly still looks chiquita (small), but it certainly doesn't feel that way. It feels like a small truck with feet in my middle.

Weather remains about 85 degrees every day, but at night there is sometimes a breeze and if we keep the window open, we don't have to sleep with the fan directly on us. Such is the "cool" of Dominican winter.

Hey dear,

It was so great to see you last month. Your baby is going to be born with the worst mango cravings this side of Thailand. I love the photos and am so pleased that you have a blog site up now.

Big hugs to you, Heuris and el/la chi chi.
