40 weeks

So, no baby, no refrigerator. At least the refrigerator will supposedly be here tomorrow, the baby has been unavailable for scheduling an appointment.

I would like to wish a Happy Chinese New Year to all. Monday was the first day of the Year of the Dragon, which is considered the luckiest year in the Chinese Zodiac. My father pointed out that it is the Water Dragon year, which if the 12-year cycle of animals is considered together with the Five Elements, only occurs once every sixty years. The significance of this, is that grandfather will share with grandchild not only Year of the Dragon, but Water Dragon Year as the year of birth.

As long as the baby arrives before February 9th of 2013.

The days seem longer, and I’m not referring to the increased daylight. We’ve been out walking quite a bit, the fresh air providing a welcome distraction. I just have to be careful that I don’t look into the windows of too many patisseries and bakeries…


Lauris vēlās novēlēt savam krusttēvam Mārim daudz laimes dzimšanas dienā. Daudz baltu dieniņu!!!

  5. I know that this will probably make me sound like a total weirdo, but I really want a dragon baby (and that looks even more strange typed out)
