22 weeks and Swedish Pancakes

Random new “symptom” or result of pregnancy hormones. Today I noticed a light brown outline above the left side of my upper lip. These little “freckles” sometimes appear after I’ve been in the sun in the summer – but now it appears as though I have a fine line of chocolate on my upper lip.

They must not be too noticeable, though, because I had to point it out to Samuel.

I just read on my weekly “BabyCenter.com” update that I may start noticing stretch marks on my belly already! Thankfully I have NOT! They say lotion won’t do anything to prevent them, but I choose to believe it will – and continue to later on the Collagen/Elastin Formula from St. Ives! I also still have an “innie” belly button, another thing they said may be flat by now. Do some women at 22 weeks really have a flat belly button by now?

Week three of DTS is now done and we’re looking forward to a free weekend – and “Swedish Pancakes” for dinner – made by our resident Swede, Christina!

We’re also looking forward to meet a new friend tonight named Jonah. He’ll be passing through Madrid on his way home from Bilbao to Sevilla. Samuel has been corresponding with him via email for the past couple of weeks. He and his wife are from California, and now live in Sevilla and we seem to have some uncanny similarities with them – including the fact that they both did DTS in Madrid and she is also pregnant with her first child! Samuel is really looking forward to meeting in person and discovering more uncanny similarities!
