Recent pictures

One day, kind of out of the blue, Sylvie moved from abstract art to more recognizable pictures.  I think the one on the left is me, and the one on the right is Henri.  The resemblance is striking, as you can see.


Next, a post-bath/half dressed shot of Henri and Sylvie.   Henri's working on his "I'm too sexy" pose.


A visit with the cousins.  Tayeb, massaging his head.


And then, Tayeb giving Henri a little back massage, as well.  Ooh, a little to the left, please.


Little Mommy Sylvie, cradling Iman in her lap.


Getting cozy on the couch.


Sylvie, Mimi and little baby Adam.


On another weekend, we were visited by Pop, Amy and the family! They stayed close by us, and we had a chance to see them Friday night for dinner and on Saturday when we visited our new condo and went out for lunch. 





That same day, Pepere came to visit us, briefly overlapping with my family.  He stayed overnight just before he and Mimi left to go back to North Carolina.  Here is Sylvie, deep in thought, as she and Pepere worked through question after question in her new flip book.


Then, to wrap up the weekend, we had yet another little birthday celebration for Pepere on Sunday.





And finally, a shot of Mommy and Daddy, taken by Sylvie.  (The matching orange fleece was unplanned.)

Henri Afoot

Henri has just started to experiment with standing on his own, pushing back from couches in a gleeful standing moment. This of course leads quickly to bigger things and we've begun to see Henri take his first few steps! I'm sure this time next month, he'll be off to the races.
