At the end of next month, the little one is expected to arrive. Baby’s layette is now prepared and the hospital classes are almost over. During one of them, while watching videos of few labour experiences, I even started crying. We have now a few weeks to relax and to… Read more »
I send my wishes from the charming town of Pacific Grove, located right by the Pacific Ocean and about two hours from San Francisco. There isn’t as much Easter ambiance as in the Bavarian style city Leavenworth (check out my post from last year), but we like it here a… Read more »
