Happy One Month Birthday Louisa! We went to Fulbourn, in the south of Cambridge, for Louisa’s hearing screening and everything went well, both ears seem to be ok. The next test will be when she’s 8 months old.Mum was able to finish her Open University assessment before the deadline. Phew, what a month!And to celebrate […]

We received back the French Livret de Famille from the French consulate with Louisa’s entry on it. We also got confirmation via the consulate web site that her French passport is now ready. It means that we have to go to London again to collect it with Louisa 😉

Two weeks after we sent the documents via mail to get Louisa’s British passport (the day after we went to London for the French and Brazilian documents), we received it in our mailbox. Amazingly simple and easy! Well… because of bureaucracy, Louisa got the British citizenship first. She is now able to travel anywhere!

While Papy & Mamy were at home, we had the visit of our friends Ujjwal, Jyoti & Ria who came for a nice homemade pizza 😉 Alan played a lot with Ria.

This is the area of Daddy Alan. He is now using the washable nappies that we got from the City Council and some extra sent by Kate and Wim as gifts for Louisa. We are managing them pretty well 😉

Rather than waiting 21 days, we received by mail Louisa’s Brazilian birth certificate within the same week!
