Bonjour Bébé

Our little boy will arrive in September 2026

  • Every good and perfect gift is from above.

We are so lucky to have people who love us spread all around the world, but it does make a baby shower hard to organize, so we’ve made this little space to share our journey with all of you.

Our little boy is due on 28 September, and we’ll use this page to share pregnancy updates, ask for your favorite baby name, announce his arrival, and keep all the important details in one place.

Thank you for being part of this exciting chapter with us!
