Rainy weekend

For our second full weekend here Romain, Lulu and I experienced our first typical rainy London weekend all together and we tried to make the most of it!  If nothing else, we were able to count on Lulu's smile first thing in the morning to cheer up the day, but getting her to go to sleep was another story (that's been more like a London rain shower the past several evenings...). 

Included in this weekend's activities was a trip to our local Sainsbury's, a stroll down Sloane Street to Peter Jones (with a quick peek in the window of Graff Diamonds, oooh la la), a nice juicy burger at Byron Burger on King's Road, and a trip to Whole Foods on High Street Kensington.  The last two making it almost feel like we hadn't left NYC!  We also cooked up a stock of food for Lulu in her Beaba Babycook (thanks, mom!).  For any new parents interested in making their own baby food, I highly recommend the Beaba.  You can steam, blend and reheat/defrost all in the same machine and it's very easy clean-up.  Leave it to the French to come up with a great product! 

We weren't able to get any good photos around town because of the rain, but here are a few from our time indoors.
