Me and My Family

Hey. I'm Lilly. Or as my best friend calls me, Lillyanka. I got married on April 29th, and I started school on May 16th. Oh, and I'm pregnant. As you can see, this last fact was a leeetle bit out of our plans (my husband's and mine).

I have, however, come to terms with the idea of having a baby, and so I decided to write about it in my blog, C'est la vie. I want to document my journey through motherhood so that my kid can see the root of her traumas for herself. Because yeah, it's a girl!!! And I'm really happy about that part, just because I always pictured myself as having a baby girl first.

So anyhoo, this is my life. And you're more than welcome to take a peek or two into my world. Just remember to always leave a comment on my blog, pretty please, because comments make me happy.

Tag, I'm it!

Well, I was tagged by Tinker79 and Lindterbean, so I suppose I should go along with the game. Which, under other circumstances I'd be thrilled to do, because it's a great game (Kudos to Tracey for coming up with it!), only I'm not very sure how to do it, 'cause my baby isn't here just yet. Not until December. So for now, all her favorite things are my favorite things. (Isn't it wonderful? Right now we're at the stage where she likes everything I like because hey, she's in my womb so she basically has no choice. Tune back in 15 years from now for the "You just don't get me, I hate you!" stage. That's gonna be nice).

So what I'm going to do is tell you a bit about myself, and when Camila is born I'll tell you about her. Does that make any sense?

 What's your favorite children's book?I'd have to go with a book called Cuentos de Mi Tía Panchita (Stories by my aunt Panchita).  It's such an amazing book, because it reflects the way our grandparents or greatgrandparents would tell a story. Plus, some characters are really mischievous and the stories always teach you something great.  The only thing is it's a book only Costa Ricans would understand. And perhaps not even my generation, but the previous ones; which is why I want my daughter to read it: so that she'll know where she came from, and maybe feel identified with her great-grandparents.

 What's your favorite thing to eat? Pasta. And potatoes. Anything with potatoes, I loooove. (Yoda, I am).

 What's your favorite game? We're very competitive in my family. My mom, dad, siblings and me are always competing for who knows "more". So we all have our heads filled with useless facts and factoids which come very useful when playing trivia. Which I love to play. (I'm a bit of a show-off). :o)

So now, I tag Proud-Mommy, FireFighterDaddy, Sillyboho and MarlenaMonteiro. Have fun!
