It moves !!!

You have to see it to believe it...



and it smiles too!

Video Blog

I'm trying a new way to share Elodie's videos. Instead of simply uploading to her website, I'll try to include them directly in this blog:

So for my first attempt, here are Elodie and Alix playing on the grass in Neulette last month:





If you want to know how I did that, you can visit Nicolas' blog. Thanks dude !

More progress !

Elodie's has reached several milestones lately: In Italy, she started to sit by herself and to put her pacifier back in her mouth. While still in France, she started to get on her hands and knees. And since we moved back to California, she picks and eat the cheerios that we place in front of her, and now she sleeps through the night (more than 11 hours straight yesterday !).

Etienne has also accomplished wonders during this past month. He is now fully potty trained (day and night) and his English skills are improving by the day !

Congratulations to both of them !!!

our new house

Yesterday we signed the lease for our new house in San Jose!
Unfortunately we won't be able to move in until our container arrives at the end of August, so here are some pictures that will give you a little preview...

Etienne and Elodie are already in love with the beautiful garden !
we can't wait to live there !!!
