Well, I’ve stopped counting on how many times I’ve set up a blog and deleted it. I always assume that no one reads it, and am still convinced of it. This is more for me, to keep track of my thoughts, and perhaps to my family.

But – before I continue, let me present you my newly-born nephew, Martin Felipe. Isn’t he cute!?

Martin

My sister and her husband honored me with asking me if I wanted to be his godfather, which I accepted of course. :) I miss this little toddler a lot, and hope to see him soon again.

Now, for some other good news. My fiancé, Marte, is pregnant. :) We went to our first ultrasound the other day, and it seems we’re having a little baby boy! We’ve pondered a while over what name to give him, and finally liked the name Michael Sebastian quite a bit. So our baby’s full name will be Michael Sebastian Barrera.

Here’s an ultrasound-image we’ve captured.

Michael Sebastian

So many thoughts and words come to mind upon seeing this picture, not to mention feelings. This is our baby boy, Marte. Ours.
