Since we arrived in Brazil we mostly wrote in Romanian and this happened especially for our parents, that are reading our site and don’t know English. Now we added two flags in the top right corner of each post, so that everybody can enjoy our adventures We’ll start translating some of the earlier posts, so come back in the next few weeks to check them out!

Therefore if you see an article that is in Romanian, click on the British flag in the top right corner and you’ll see the English version.

Kisses to all of you!
Pedro, Eugenia & Nadia

After the christening ceremony at the church, she celebrated with many many dear friends of ours.Thank you all for being with us
The whole day was full of strong feelings that are hard to explain in words. The only thing I can tell is that we were VERY VERY VERY HAPPY together.

Then the hard task came – selecting pictures We’d like to thank (again) to all 3 photographers, they did a fabulous job! It was really hard to select the pictures from this post, once due to some technical difficulties (that we hope will soon be fixed) but also due to a large number of great pictures

The applauses goes to (in the order of their names and pictures) Vali Carţiş, Tudor Juravlea and Nic Vîlceanu.

I wish that all mammies could experience a magic pregnancy. We’ll keep you posted of what happens Time is ticking away…

Month no.9 – The most AWESOME, MAGIC and EXTREMELY HAPPY month.

Month no. 8 – Shopping and nesting moods

Indeed, this was the period when I went crazy and bought most of the the little things Nadia will use in the first months. It was great to buy things which made her little bed absolutely beautiful, to arrange her things in the dressing room and to nest our new home to be all right when Nadia comes. This month we also attended Ramona’s Lamaze class in order to learn more about babies. We totally recommend this training, because it gives you a full image of what pregnancy means and what you should do with the little one when is born.

Month no. 7 – Curious about Nadia’s evolution

Both me and Pedro were very curious to go to the doctor and see our little one. We could not wait to see her pretty and funny face, to hear her heartbeats and to find out how much weight she gain in the last weeks. The evolution was good in general with some little issues which were solved by Mrs. doctor. During this month we decided about her name, Nadia Teodora Dobrescu

For these 3 months my belly started to grow and I was “forced” to go shopping for some clothes. Pedro was not very happy about it, but finally he accepted the situation. Of course, for Nadia’s and her mammy sake I also have to thank to all the mammies who offered me some of their clothes. I liked them a lot and thanks again I guess that this month we asked Dragomirestii to be Nadia’s God parents and they accepted our proposal. Yupppiiiii

Because my belly was still a “six pack” I was thinking about Nadia more like an idea. There were no visible evidences that I am pregnant, so I can not say very much about this period, just that I was getting used with this idea. Meantime, the pregnancy sickness was a bit disturbing, so I was looking for some “treatments”. And the winner in my case was the fresh orange juice.

Another, or the first Most AWESOME, MAGIC and EXTREMELY HAPPY month . We were totally happy about this and started to spread the good news to everybody. Of course, the happiness was on the edge also for our families and friends. So, we were high on the sky!!!

I managed to process some pictures of three Dobrestii and I want to share them with you

Hugs and kisses,
Eugenia

Din  motive tehnice, nu am mai scris de ceva vreme pe blog. Dar situatia asta a fost rezolvata de baietii de la Dream Production, carora le multumesc din suflet. Asa ca acum am intrat si noi in randul lumii bune de pe blogu.lu.

Asa ca de la ultima interventie, ne-am ocupat cu urmatoarele:

- din doua in doua saptamani o vedem pe Nadia la ecografii. Momentan cantareste in jur de 2 kilograme si ETA s-a mutat pe 15 mai 2010 Este deja o frumusica de fetita, cel putin din punctul nostru de vedere si al doamnei dr. Bohiltea

- ne-am upgradat locuinta; adica de la garsoniera ne-am mutat la apartament de 2 camere. Tot cu chirie, tot cam in cartier, la etajul 7 fata de 4, cu mai mult soare si din pacate cu mai multa galagie

- ne planificam programul pentru perioada cand va veni si Nadia printre noi

- ne planificam Concediul 2010, care va fi facut prin Spania si probabil Portugalia impreuna cu Nadia si prietenii nostri Dragomirestii (Dana, Ioana si Bob)

- ne pregatim de party-ul lui Pedro pentru cea de-a 20-a aniversare din viata lui

- ne gandim deja la lista de cadouri pentru botezul Nadiei

- nu ne mai spetim asa de mult cu lucrul si ne bucuram mai mult de timpul petrecut impreuna!

- si nu in ultimul rand, ne bucuram de primavara minunata care a venit!!! Yuppiiii

Atata pentru moment.

I named this post, Dreams and Hopes, because lately, I am thinking about the new family me and Pedro will have in terms of Hopes and Dreams.

We know already we are expecting a girl and one of her first names will be Nadia

But that’s all. About how her life will be, what will we be offering her, where are we going to travel every year, how much will she cry or smile, how many hours will she sleep during the day and night and so on… we know NOTHING.

So, I am thinking only about what dreams we have for her and what are my hopes regarding our life together.

Some of our Dreams:

- to become a traveler as her parents are

- to smile all the time and be a friendly person

- both of us, to spend with her as much time as possible

- to take her in a most wonderful places and explore the things around her

- to love animals and nature in general

- to become all green from the grass around the house during the playing hours

- to eat with her entire body as often as she can. We love kids who are putting the food everywhere

- to ask Santa to bring her a bicycle

- to love music and bed time stories

Some of our Hopes:

- to agree in her way to travel around the world as soon as possible (without any “enforcement” from our side)

- to travel by caravan and see Romania, the whole Europe and maybe more

- to like to sleep, like her mum and dad do, especially in the morning

- to like to party, like her parents

- to like having guests in the house like we did since we met and moved in together

- to like sauna and swimming in the future pool also

- to get involved in all kind of activities with her colleagues and friends

- to be honest, responsible and reliable, but in the same time to be brave enough to try new things and challenges

I am sure Pedro have some other Hopes and Dreams to add here, so I am asking him, nicely , to edit this post in the near future, so we have a complete list to show Nadia when she will be a real Missy

The future Mum

Later Edit: The future father has added some points to the Hopes & Dreams. I believe we’ll keep on adding up to some point

- eu ca voi putea cumpara rochite peste rochite (care au foarte putin roz pe ele)

- Pedro ca EA va fi fata lu’ tata si il va iubi mai mult pe el

Concluzia este ca ne bucuram MUUUUUUUUUULLLTTTTTTT de tot amandoi.

Bonus: un prim salut al bebitzei.

Va pupam,
2 Dobresti + 1 Dobresc

Incerc de vreo 5 minute sa incep post-ul si mi-este greu. Si asta pentru ca imi trec prin minte o gramada de lucruri si momente de exceptie petrecute alaturi de sotul meu.
Exact acum in urma cu 2 ani noi doi viitori insuratei eram i-l asteptm in fata blocului pe Codrin pentru a ne da imprimanta lui foto . Dupa, au urmat mersul acasa la Vilceni, mersul la biserica si apoi la party place, Baneasa Parc.

In acesti doi ani s-au intamplat multe, foarte multe lucruri extraordinare. Dintre ele:
- o nunta de exceptie pe care as mai face-o an de an:)
- o luna de miere: 4 saptamani fantastice prin Spania, Franta si Italia;
- 2 revelioane de exceptie, unul alaturi de BEST-ani ca sa-i dovedim lui Alemanu ca suntem aceiasi oameni petrecareti si dupa nunta ; si altul la Vasoaia in compania minunatei familii Don;
- 2 excursii in Estonia si tarile din jur
- o saptamana de miere in Barcelona, multumita sotului meu castigator;
- multe weekend-uri petrecute cu cortul in Vama;
- alte multe weekend-uri petrecute cu familiile, prietenii si colegii;
- multe evenimente fericite ale prietenilor, cununii, botezuri si alte cumetrii;
- o super vacanta in Asia, care ne-a descis apetitul pentru calatorii de nu s-a pomenit;
- un mega, super, tare concert U2 la Milano;
- ….

Lista asta este o oglinda a vietii petrecute impreuna. Si pentru asta iti multumesc din suflet dragul meu.

La multi ani dragule!

We have been working quite hard in the past days/weeks to re-launch our site and here it is! Refreshed, a bit reorganized and after our vacation in Singapore will become 100% functional. Right now you’ll see that the pictures are not moved yet, most of the users were not imported from the old site and maybe some other small bugs.

A major difference is that we’ll start to post in Romanian too, depending on the topic/section/category etc.

As i don’t want to bore you anymore, please click on the RSS feeds link and stay in touch with our adventures in Singapore/Indonesia and not only

See ya!
