Progreso!

With Danny at work this week I have been on my own for 2 days now and I am proud to say that on today I made myself get up and get out the door into the real Spanish-speaking world. I could easily stay inside all day long - my house is clean, spacious, and comfortable and as tired as I am at 35 weeks pregnant I could easily sleep the day away. But at the same time I am a stubborn part-Latin woman who hates to feel needy – as in I need Danny to go anywhere. So, I realize that this is a bit boastful but hey I am proud of myself. What did I do when I went out? I went grocery shopping all be myself today! You see it may be boasting but it is humble circumstances. I also should mention that I actually drove home from the mall and Costco on Monday - granted Danny was in the car with me but if anyone has been to Mexico City driving here is probably 100x’s worse than driving in NYC. Yeah for me! Pray for me friends! Xoxo.

I tried to download some video footage of our apartment (and your new vacation spot) but I am struggling to get it up so instead I will just put some pictures. We are hoping that all our stuff gets here soon because as you can see the place is a bit barren. All the furniture is on loan - down to the cute little crib and bedding - which I hope is not a bad sign that our stuff will not arrive before baby J does! Fingers crossed. =)

















The damage from Costco 35 weeks!
