August in a nutshell

We became a family of four.

We went visit my in-laws up on the mountains.

We had our little hospitalised with a ear infection.

We spent our first week since we moved to Rome on our own in our new home with our new family... and we survived!

We are ready to start a new season in our life, we welcome you September and happy first month my sweet little guy.

It's week 31 and we are now a family of four!

Olivia: Adjusting to her new role of big sister. It's quite hard having to learn to share our attention with her brother, but she'll get there, eventually.

Valentino: He eats, he sleeps, he cries like a champion. And we are loving every minute of it!

Meet Valentino, aka "George"

He's finally here. He was born on August 1st, at 8.49pm, after an extremely quick but very intense and extremely painful, labour. 

We are all madly in love with this very peaceful little guy. xxx

30/52 + 41/40

So, we reached week 30 of 52, and by this time we were supposed to be a family of four...I guess we'll have to wait a few more days!!!

Olivia: enjoying some mother-daughter painting session. I'm hoping I will be able to keep this us time once her brother will arrive and everything else will be disrupted!

Baby boy: I seriously wouldn't have thought to pass the due date by a week! And since there is no fruit or veg to compare this baby to anymore, it will be just my giant belly this time. One way or another, by this time next week he will be here, joining his big sister in her weekly photo shoots.
