In front of Le Notre were we got the Christmas cakes.
Mummy and I were staring at the Christmas tree & stars.
We then went to lots of shops to get : turkey, fruits, vegetables, wine … and cheese.

This is me, just after the Fromager baptised me with Roquefort cheese 😉

I was so tired this morning, I just fell asleep on my changing table while Mummy was getting ready.

OK – please do not comment over my socks 😉

Big big shopping day. Mummy, Daddy & me went to the supermarket (yes Mummy came too – WAOW) for all the stuff we need as Granny, Auntie Emma & Uncle Rob are spending Christmas with us.

When we arrived home after putting everything in the right place so it would be simple to find, we all went to bed early because all this shopping, carrying and arranging is just exhausting !

This is a really cool new game I’ve found kicking the camera & Mummy.

I just love to be encouraged !

… I do not like when it’s noisy so I put my hands on my ears to be less disturbed.

And if that does not work then I need the following :

a/ My mummy and dummie (in any order)
b/ My cover
c/ Twinkle twinkle little star

Mummy bought a new toy for me, the Wii bottle holder.
And I’m really becoming good at holding the bottle.
Please note for future reference that I’m only 11 weeks old !
Aren’t I the best ? 😉

I can even do it with NO HANDS 😉

I love going to L’An Vert du décor. It’s Daddy & my special place. It’s the only place where I’m sort of allowed to watch television.
So today we took Pépé & Mummy with us 😉
That’s how nice Daddy & I are !

Pépé Richard came to visit today.
We went for lunch at Bastille and guess who we was there  ….

FATHER CHRISTMAS !  Yes it’s true – I don’t know precisely what he was doing there, but we did see him !
(Well actually Pépé, Daddy and Mummy spoke to him while I was sleeping).

Since I left the maternity, each time we have gone out Mummy and/or Daddy prepare a bottle of milk called “Le biberon” and Mummy has always in her bag another sealed bottle from the stack Julie gave us called “Le biberon de secours” (In case of emergency bottle).

Mummy seems to be very found of the “just in case” concept.

Until today we had only used once “Le biberon” and that was in the British Embassy; and NEVER the famous “Biberon de secours”.
But today is a special day, as I had my “Biberon” at Granny’s, and coming home from Ikea I was starving.
So Mummy gave me the “Biberon de secours” in Granny’s car.
And I was happy !

Mummy told me that IKEA  stuff was crappy, but can be useful sometimes – especially to get kitchen stuff and Christmas decorations.

Well I don’t care what Mummy says about Ikea cuz I loved it.
I just couldn’t stop looking at everything … all the lights and color.

As soon as I arrived Mummy rushed to her neighbours’ to show me off 😉

Granny could you please send Mummy the video you made so Mummy can post it on the blog?
Thanks 😉

I think Mummy & I might have given Granny the best surprise ever.
Granny was very annoyed at Mummy, cuz she never goes to St Germain to see her at her “lovely home” blablabla.
Well when we arrived at first Granny thought Mummy was alone. Granny did not have a happy face.
But as soon as she saw me … everything changed.

Granny showed me all around her house, and what she called MY ROOM. (formerly called Auntie Emma’s room).
And I think I’m going to love coming here.
Lots of room to play, the St Germain castle just in front of Granny’s house, a lift (!!!!! that’s so cool), and most important my GRANNY !

Today we are suprising Granny, and going to see her in St Germai – that’s outside Paris.
Mummy and I took a cab.
I was looking through the car window at all the new things I had never seen. Forest, Motorway …

Special private joke for Granny
Mummy told me not to be scared, that we were going back to  the civilisation (aka. Paris) tonight.

My Christmas stocking is finally finished.  HURRAY !!
Please note for future reference that at 11 weeks old I’m a big longer than the stocking.

When Mummy arrived home, I really was glad to see her.
I’m sure Mummy missed me too.

Mummy went out all afternoon without me.

And Daddy is Jamesitting.

And guess what ? Daddy took 5 pictures … HURRAY !

Mummy has been cutting out letters all day.
When is it going to be finished?

Daddy was operated today. Mummy told me all about Daddy’s teeth operation, and that I must stay quiet to let Daddy sleep.

Poor Daddy !

Daddy has a really weird conception of Christmas caroling.

I’ve just realised that we have disco Christmas lights !
Mummy was right ! Christmas rocks !
