Finally a new post..

Yes, it's been a while since my last post - but here it is!!
Just got this picture taken yesterday - I am in my 33rd week and still doing fine.





I am starting to get really curious about this little guy's entrance into the world. This week we bought a "barnevogn" which is sort of a carrier (see picture) that every mom has in Denmark. We also got a lot of all the other "need to have" things. Still have a little bit of shopping left but we have most by now.

In less than four weeks I am going on maternity leave. Looking forward to having all of december to shop christmas gifts and do a lot of baking:-)

A fantastic US visit

My trip to the States was amazing - it was so good to be back!

We all had a great time at Kristy and Matt's wedding and it was very nice to spend some time with everyone.



At the end of the trip we went to do a little sightseeing (and a lot of walking) in Boston. We saw the US Constitution and afterwards Pat and Meg drove me to the airport - thanks for taking me (and finding the way) to Boston airport:-) I guess the sightseeing part wore me out a little as I found myself waking up in the airport just before my flight left.

It's a boy

On Wednesday this week Jesper and I went to the second scanning. The little one seems to be fine which is very nice to know. At first, they would not tell us whether it is a boy or girl, but at the end the nurse was certain of what she saw and said that it was a little boy:-)

Knowing this, I am able to go to Kristy's wedding in Boston and do some baby clothes shopping as well.
Can't wait to see many of you - its been way too long - hopefully you'll still be able to understand me even though my English is a little rusty. I have tried to prepare and refresh my English watching a lot of American movies, recently one with Arnold Schwarzenegger, so hopefully I am ready by now...:-)

Summer update 2

Yesterday we went to a place called Bakken to eat dinner and see an annual show "Cirkusrevy" with my parents.

On the picture you can see that I am definitely gaining weight now. I am in my 17th week....

Summer update from Copenhagen

So my short vacation is over and although we did not do a whole lot it was nice to be off work for a while. We went to visit Jesper's parents in Jylland for a little week and then we just stayed at home for the last week.

We have been sailing when the wind allowed it - our boat does not like windy weather at all which can be a challenge, since it is usually kind of windy at sea:-)

This weekend I layed out with Mette and we captured the moment with a picture.

Having a baby...

So I am pregnant - just entered my second trimester as I am 14 weeks along today. I am feeling great, no nausea or anything, but of course a little tiredness in the first weeks.

The little one is due first thing in the new year, more specifically on January 3rd 2009. We don't know whether it will be a boy or girl yet, hopefully we'll find out in a months time or so. A couple of weeks ago we went to the first scanning and saw him/her and heard the heart beat - it was fantastic!

And then a "Smitty": Yes it was planned and yes, Jesper is the farther:-)

Isla Margarita March 2008

Even though it has been a while, I wanted to share a couple of pictures from our trip to the Caribbean island Isla Margarita. We went for a two week vacation around Easter and of course we had a fantastic trip. We did not do a whole lot of sightseeing and mostly we enjoyed the sun and the nice beach right outside our resort.

A cute little fisher town with a very beautiful sunset.
