SERIOUSLY HANDSOME

December 30, 2011
Adrien is getting bigger and these two last months have been so overwhelming, surreal and extremely exiting!!  Here there are some pics of November and December...

BETWEEN BUMBLES AND BUBBLES

December 27, 2011
We took the children and cousins for a day after Christmas in the winter playground of Palexpo. André couldn't be happier... life is good lately!  Warm and comfy is the key to have fun in winter.
Adrien finished exhausted... too much for a little baby. Back home, I had to recompose him with a hot bath and salts... finishing with and an oil massage  ;)

SO THIS IS CHRISTMAS

December 26, 2011
So this is the first Christmas for Adrien!! And as Celine Dion says, the young and the old had fun... actually a lot of fun! Relatives came to Switzerland for the holidays and all the cousins gathered together for the first time, so we're welcoming a entirely month full of excitement and happiness.
We had Christmas dinner in my in-laws' place. Santa Claus came personally and brought loads of gifts, but for my children, cousins were the best presents under the tree  :)
A very merry Christmas and a Happy New Year 2012!!

WINTER WONDERLAND

December 10, 2011
Winter season is here! And this year, I promised myself to not complain about the weather (sigh).
Schilliger is my favorite garden center. You can find there nice inspiration for plants and flower settings. For the new holiday season launching, they had activities and entertainment for children, cookies and even a delicious warm wine with fruits. They shared the receipt furthermore  ;)

SINGIN' IN THE RAIN

November 25, 2011
After the Rain, a spa in Geneva is launching a Children's Spa! Could you believe it? We'll have to wait a little bit because it's for children aged 7 to 17. They have massages for kids, manicures, chocolate baths and treatments specially developed and designed for children. The name of the treatments are truly appropriate, such as: The Little Prince (a light back and leg massage with almond oil), Thousand and One Nights (a sparking bath with beverage and a candy chest included), Snow White (a pearl and silk facial), Charly and the Chocolate Factory (a chocolate bath accompanied by a chocolate fondue with marshmallows), etc.
They say they want to teach kids to be aware and treat better their own bodies. I like the idea that the products they use are adapted to children as well. Along with the spa treatments, the children receive candy cotton, strawberry milk, everything sounds delicious and fun!!
In the meantime, we're going to a birthday party with a Batman theme. It's the first birthday party for Adrien!! 

SEE YOU LATER ALLIGATOR

November 16, 2011


We took the children for a visit to the Vivarium of Geneva where they found alligators, serpents, frogs, and all kind of amphibians. Maybe it's not the best place for girls, but boys love it!! Oh boys!
The best part? I found out it's possible to make a birthday party there for children over 6 years old. I can't way that my boys grow up enough to throw a Swamp Birthday Party  ;)

PALEOADVENTURES

November 3, 2011

What would be better for a dino-crazed kid that a dinosaur dig? Balexert, the biggest shopping mall in Geneva organized a Dinosaur Exposition with fossils and dino-dig for children. It was fun and educational!
