move over nadia!

By far, this is Océanne's favorite 45 minutes of the week! Learning how to tumble... balance... take turns... and whatever else it takes to make it over to the rings (her favorite)! The gym in San Rafael has absolutely everything and is just plain f-u-n for an energetic 2 year old!

hair twins!

Having fun at Sadie's house in SF... Annie and I call them the "hair twins!"

Two peanuts in the bucket swing!

saut!

some afternoon beach cuteness!

from nova scotia to patagonia!

Manu, Céline, Margot and Charlotte rolled into Sausalito in their home away from home for a few days! They shipped their RV from France to Halifax a few months ago and are on a year long adventure throughout Canada, the U.S., Central, and South America... all the way to the tip of Chile! We are so lucky to see them along this amazing journey... Océanne is SO happy to see the girls she can't get enough of them. The last time she saw them was at their home in Saou when she was 10 months old, and I swear she remembers!

getting into character...

The Kid's Fair in Mill Valley on Sunday. The Peace Lutheran Church was so gracious with free face painting, bouncy house, petting zoo, etc! Ella, Ava, Océanne and Anna having some treats on the porch swing!

28 months...

The *big* news is that O has been out of diapers for almost 4 weeks (except at night)!! She's become quite the chatterbox, speaking English mostly but also a little French as well and she understands everything her daddy says (he has only spoken French with her from the second she arrived)... As always, she's on the move and is constantly trying to see what she can climb on, swing from, roll over, etc. Le petit singe! Of course we think she's pretty darn funny and also pretty darn cute, and I'm not sure I'll ever let a pair of scissors get near those wavy blonde locks!
