I cannot believe how quickly it has gone.
He went from my little leach to my kick, kick, kicking baby in no time flat! Well, he is still my little leach. But, he is leaching less and Mama is sleeping more, thankfully!
Boy Blue is always smiling. He is the happiest baby I have [...]

Christmas in Strasbourg
Sweet Bear and Petite Clown loved the “marche de Noel” last year. Strasbourg was full of lights and small Christmas trees. The Christmas Market of Strasbourg is the oldest in France and the Christmas tree is said to have originated here in Alsace. There are records of Christmas trees being sold at the Christmas market [...]

Kids do the funniest things. We all hear it. But, only parents understand what those five words really mean.

Sweet Bear is not smelling so sweet at the moment. Mama Bear just found her sticking her finger down the back of her diaper and smearing you know what all over the television! She told me she had went poo poo and I had just told [...]
Bi-ling children are so much fun!
Multi-cultural is even better.Last night my husband was on the computer waiting for his yucky seafood pizza to get done. I will not eat seafood on pizza. I just can’t. It is like my husbands aversion to peanut butter sandwiches which I still love to eat. I was so excited when my brother sent me [...]

You grew quickly and at six months old you would cry if I held you. You wanted to be free [...]
My Little Clown
We went on one of our family road trips today and this is how Petite Clown got herself all twisted up in the backseat! She somehow got her right arm up past her carseats strap and through the neck of her sweater and then she got her other arm out of its sleeve and left [...]

Dog Doo for Dumbies
This is the sign in front of Sweet Bears school. Translation: “Pensez A Nos Enfants” is in english “Think of our children”. “Merci”, written at the bottom is a word that even very uncultured Americans most likely know. It means “thank you”.
I think it is funny that a sign must actually be posted to tell [...]
Boy Blue
This is Boy Blue as a newborn.
He is now almost four months old. Time has flown like I now understand it does with little ones. When I had my first baby a wise mother told me to take mental pictures of each special moment because before you know it they are not babies any longer [...]
