Swings

We took a trip to the playground at Hurlingham Park today with Hilary, Clara, and Elodie where Lulu and Clara had fun together on the swings.  Afterwards we walked along Wandsworth Bridge Road.  Now we're back at the casa getting prepared for our friend Lizzie's arrival tomorrow morning!!

A taste of the Mediterranean

The cuisine of the Med leaves nothing to be desired.  Even Lulu agrees ...

Here are a couple dishes we enjoyed while in Marseille.

What we're wearing

Check out what Lulu is wearing today.  No, she's not playing dress up, just trying to stay warm.  And yes, it's July 19th.

Summer vacation

We're back!  After spending two exciting and relaxing weeks in Marseille, the fun times had to come to an end as we returned to London yesterday afternoon.  Lulu spent most of her time outside playing and enjoying the hot, sunny weather. 

Lulu finally had her first dip in the pool.



She attended Solenne and Maxime's wedding (we'll post photos from the wedding later) ... and even got to wear the same dress as her big cousin Clara.


Ate popsicles ...


Relaxed in the hammock. 


And got to spend quality time with Mamine and Papinou.




Thanks for a wonderful vacation Mamine and Papinou!

Solenne + Maxime

Solenne and Maxime are tying the knot todqy.  Romain, Lulu, and I think they make a pretty great couple and could not be happier for them!  Here's to a long, happy, and beautiful life together.

Stars and stripes

Happy fourth of July!  Although we won't be able to celebrate in a traditional way, Lulu and I will be having just as much fun this Independence day on our first flight to Marseille -- alone.  We cannot wait to see Mamine, Papinou, and soon to be wed Aunt Solenne.

Can you believe that tomorrow Lulu will be 10 months old ... where has the time gone?!

An apple a day

Back in March when Auntie Em came to visit us she introduced Lulu to Granny Smith apples.  Since then, she can't get enough.  If she could, she would eat them for every meal, along with Cheerios and yogurt.


Only 2 more days until we head to Marseille to get ready for Solenne's big day!!
