JM

Salut le monde!! (3.5 months old.)

ohhh so tired...

typing with one hand holding johan in another. he is quiet for the moment just spacing and looking around.

survived day one alone yesterday. went to see johan's new doc. very nice woman and plus office near home. johan is growing up well and eating enough.

carried johan in the baby bjorn sling to the appointment and it was awesome. he was cranky at first and then quiet and asleep. ahhh...

AH came home after work and took over so i can nap a bit, but poor him he was also tired too.

parenthood serious life change, but it gets better day by day as i keep hearing.

Johan-Marley Khalis Pellaud

After nine months - AH and my little PPP joined us.

Born 15th March 2008 at 3:57am.

I was in labour for 22hours with 3 midwives, 2 doc and epidural people all around me and ended up having a C-section. A very long story...but I wouldn't go into details.

Now Johan-Marley is here and his parents are trying to get adjusted to this whole new lifestyle.

AH has been a real hero right now. He is cooking cleaning and managing things without me while I give boobie juice and nap when possible. AH also gave me a cute post preggies gift - a little fish pendant with a pearl. I love it. AH will go back to work next week. Then I will be on my own during the day. Eck!

Ok going to nap or hang with AH now while Johan-Marley 'naps'.

what I did in Malaysia most of the time...

grape harvest 2007 Valais

This year, A.H. and I finally had time to help Groni (father-in-law) to harvest his grapes.

A.H. recruited a friend Xema and work colleague Gillieum this year to assist in the annual ritual.

Photos says it all. I just watched and encourage them by giving drinks during the breaks and sang song. Attila was also happy to run around the vineyard. Finally total of grapes harvested - 700 kgs!!!
