Surprises

This past week had been quite exciting to me.

After receiving a FEDEX package from my parents in Suriname with all sorts of gifts, I started really to get more into the spirit of “baby”.
Somehow I found my self panicking that I would not be ready.
I read more , I stayed on line looking at online stuff to find the latest news and recalls. Some how I have this picture in my mind of how its supposed to be done and how ITS NOT.Being in a totally different country with different culture sure makes it harder to connect with women here. So I rely on my mom and my memory to get me trough.Yesterday I got a great Gift from a friend. I guess the gift giving for a baby is UNIVERSAL . I know that people care and they are excited for me. So I think I’ll make it.I have 10 weeks to go, to meet this little person that has been swimming inside my body for months. When she arrives she will change the World.

Guess who's coming to Virgin Gorda?

My mom ,stephdad and my younger sister Whitney planned to be with me when I will have my baby.Robbert and I are very happy, because we think as this is my first child,its very important that my parents will be with me.My younger sister will
come also and she is delighted to see the baby . Unfortunately my Big brother Jerome won’t be able to come,because somebody MUST stay at “Home” To look after
our beautiful dogs : Angus and Sarah. He planned to come when the others return
to Suriname.My parents did the hotel reservations in a very early stage,due to the busy holiday season when they will arrive in Virgin Gorda .Virgin Gorda is one big attraction for tourists on cruise ships during the holidays. I can hardly wait to see my family

A day at the beach

Last Sunday I had a bit of a scare. While I was sitting in front of the TV I suddenly felt faint. I taught nothing of it and just ate something, but I got worse, so I went to lay down.After that I started to throw up. I decided to see the doctor which turned out to be a good idea. I had low blood pressure which was causing me to feel faint and nauseous.I was told to rest and drink extra fluids.
I had to cancel my usual day at the beach on sunday.Since I don't really workout I try to walk the beach every now and then.Living in BVI I have some beautiful beaches to take advantage of.I often go to "the Baths" to relax, but since that takes a hike to get there its off limits for the stage of my pregnancy. I also love "Savannah Bay".That's a flat bay so we went there today and took a swim. I also took a walk along the bay. The baby was very quiet.I think the water rocked her to sleep.We intend to take her there often once she's born.I'll always have the memories of taking her there in my tummy.
