We can officially say that Spring has arrived, not only according to the date on the calendar, but also based on the shoes and wellies that adorn our feet, and the soggy grass poking its way out of the melting snow. So now it's time to bring you up to speed on a few things that have transpired in our little world. Things that we cannot capture with a cute photo and caption, but that make up such important parts of our lives.  Let's start with Alice. Our little-big girl never ceases to amaze us with her kindness, considerate nature and spectacular linguistic skills! When asked if she wants her muffin cut, she first says yes, then reflects and say "Actually, I will bite it" When Lucy picks her up from daycare and is upset after a tough day with Est elle she says "I'm just a little bit worried about you, Mummy" Unfortunately, being two also means getting sick - as I write this she is at the clinic with Guy, getting checked for an ear infection. There has a...

We have introduced a new friend to Estelle as part of our new sleep training program (not necessarily sleeping through the night, as many new parents hope for - we'll start with sleep for more than 2 hours at a time and not going down screaming) This little bunny was given to Estelle by Aunty Katherine when she was born, but our sleep expert book suggests choosing a lovey for your little one, to help them "self-soothe" when trying to fall asleep. It's a rather puffy (Janette!) little bunny, and quite adorable... our question to you is - what should we call him? (or is it a her?) (Merci pour le livre , Pascale, on commence cette fin de semaine , et on vous donnera des nouvelles ...)

So if anyone wants to chip in and send the family on an all-expense paid trip to Maui - we're ready!

No we are not going on another cruise this year, but we have just booked a week-long holiday in beautiful Ocean Park, Maine for July. We're looking forward to it already! Imagine the girls playing in the sand (some might go straight to eating it), walking on the hot boardwalk, and sipping the legendary raspberry-lime rickeys. Paradise on our very own continent!

... to make me forget the 40 minute (screaming) jig-o-thon it took to get her to sleep this evening.

And on the potty, watching "Sid the science kid" (thanks, Grandad) Estelle, poor thing, is completely blocked from watching the TV!

Guy and Estelle only moments after the little one rolled over from her tummy to her back (and we promptly put her back, hoping for a repeat) What a wonderful milestone for a Saturday morning!
