A deafeaning silence

I was supposed to work today so I scheduled an extra day with our Nounou. It turns out that I don't have the papers I need yet so Mia is still at the Nounou's and I'm at home - ALONE. It's quite a shock to have an entire day of freedom. I'm not sure what to do with myself really. What's most disturbing is how quiet the house is! No little girl singing, no one asking for more juice and no one having a tantrum.

Montpellier


We spent the weekend in Montpellier visiting friends. Thomas had to go see his business partners to help with the blends for the latest vintage in production. So Mia and I came along to wander the streets of the town that was my first home in France. It's much smaller than what I remember....

Mia had a great time playing with Josephe, the 1yr old son of our friends Fanny and Greg. The two kids played so much, in fact, that they almost skipped their naps entirely and didn't go to bed on Saturday night until 10pm. It was our first time trying to get Mia to sleep in a "big bed" so needless to say she kept climbing out, unzipping her sleeper and walking into the dining room in various states of undress.

Before


I figured that this was worth a picture....

Tea time with Bear before going to have our very first (professional) haircut.
