The long trip home

We are finally back in Perth after a 24 hour journey which started three days earlier in Sanary-Sur-Mer. I was dreading the long trip home by myself with Madenn but it wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. Let’s be sure of one thing though: If I can,...

And the third day of Christmas....

When something starts to go wrong, it usually doesn't come as an isolate incident. Yesterday, we finally managed to get a company to come with a specialized hydro-truck to muck out the waste stuck in our utilities pipes. They arrived in the afternoon...

A new Year in the Merde*

Mum and Dad had the excellent idea to plan a raclette for lunch. For those of you who are not familiar with this traditional French meal (also shared with Switzerland), Raclette is essentially melted cheese, served over boiled potatoes and other ingredients...

Where do you find these cool items?

Many friends have asked me where I find some of the cool baby items I bought for Madenn. The most popular one is her stroller sunshade from protectabub. It seems that it is not really well known yet as a complementary cover for strollers. I haven't been...

Christmas French Style

Santa Claus didn’t come to our house last night. Since my sister Anne and brother in law were still in Japan, my parents decided to push back the festivities for a few days to give them time to hop on a plane and join the rest of the family to celebrate....

In Sanary

We finally arrived to our final destination, in Sanary-Sur-Mer, after another arrowing trip by train (first time for Madenn on the TGV) from Paris to the South of France. We were so organized for this last leg of our trip to see my parents and their new...

One week among the beasts

Good things always come to an end. Our visit to South Africa was very pleasant though somehow chaotic. We were visiting our friends, Mathieu and Virginie (one of Madenn’s fairies), who welcomed a second child less than two months ago. They gave Madenga...

The sweety is a tough cookie!

Madenn is turning 11 months in a week or so. She now has eight teeth which she shows readily when she smiles, which is very often. She is still an intense baby who rarely laughs out loud but she loves to smile. To everyone and no one in particular. To...
