After being on the road and travelling and shopping for awhile, its nice to just stay home and relax. So upon arriving home we stopped by the oyster farm just a stone’s throw away from our house
and whipped up a scrumptous home cooked meal of oysters, escargo, baked clams, steamed lobsters, sambal veg and a few other dishes. Yup, Nyx had some too!

Porcupine man
We drove through the blackforest to get here hor!
It really wasn’t as cold as I thought it would be at the places we visited, in fact after coming back to Bordeaux I find that its colder here! Well, save for Montblanc of course. We walked a whole lot during this trip and visited Paris yet again but I thoroughly enjoyed it, especially the eating! Although it would’ve been easier not being close to 8 months pregnant at this point.
Here are some of the pictures we took at the places we visited.
Furry backyard surprise
Pictures of Nya
Check out her facial features!!!! Went for my ultrasound at the gynea’s
this morning and he took so many pictures and measurements.
I almost fell asleep during the scan, hahaha. During the ultrasound
I saw Nya opening and closing her mouth, apparently she was drinking
the amniotic fluid surrounding her. The other picture shows her
extending her legs and sticking her feet towards her nose, so cute!
Everything is fine except for
my gynea’s concern over my low blood pressure.
