First Things First

We had Denna roaming the city from the moment she stepped off the plane. There is so much to do here and we wanted her to see as much as she could before the new baby arrived.

First we took her to the Zhelendorf subway station to get some fresh fruit and local German pastries.
We also wanted her to get some of the families we love in our ward. We threw a BBQ, of course!

We went to Ikea - just like we do nearly ever other week.
We did two days of all-or-nothing tourist attractions.

Abby showed off her magic tricks and mad skills.

We ate at the international food festival. We pounded Russian dumplings, Thai spring rolls, Turkish spinach wraps with tzatziki, Middle Eastern feta and falafel pitas, German sausages, Irish baked potatoes with herbed butter, Italian gelato, etc. Needless to say, I think I overdid the recommended pregnancy weight gain for this week.

Denna shopped at the international market.

We came home and teched-up our afternoon.

We even went and swam in the lake with some church friends later in the week. It's pretty obvious that this is my REGULAR (not maternity) swim suit from about 5o pounds ago. It was not very comfortable to wear.

More BBQing....

The dogs can barely stand the action. At the end of the day they are pooped!
