December 2011:
Let's decorate! Auntie B came to celebrate her birthday (same day as Gontran!) Ambroise got to read books all day long!
We spent a day in the city, looking at the Christmas store window displays For Dad's birthday he got an IPAD! Ambroise loves it just as much as he does.
The wood was delivered - lots of fires in the fireplace this winter!
Christmas!
Theo got a bedroom make-over:
Here it is, your moment of Zen:
Ambroise's progress report: - Ambroise loves playing with Madeline on her PC. They wrote a letter with four sentences:
- Ambroise helps his Mommy with the laundry: he notably looks at the clothes turning in the tumbler and opens the door to see closer... But he helps sorting out - he can recognize the owner of any clothes. - Ambroise loves to make a fire with papa. He makes wads of paper, passes the "amumettes" allumettes= matches)... "Watch out, papa! Hot!" - He can differentiate a hexagon from an heptagon from an octagon... - Ambroise has a passion for volcanos, and they appear everywhere, in his food, in his drawing requests. M&T are inventing volcano songs. A few titbits: - Ambroise took a Christmas ornament from the tree, threw it on the floor. It broke. He immediately started crying... He thought it would bounce back like any other ball! - The little conversation with his Mommy which followed:
- To his Dad: "I love you. Lazy Bum." - Ambroise accidentally gave a black eye to his mom. - Mommy: "You are a-do-ra-ble". Ambroise: "No! Dora is on the TV!" - Ambroise, out of nowhere: "Reindeers have antlers". Where the heck did he learn that? - The smallest Russian stacking doll has a "baby mother" inside. |
