We went to an A’s game on Saturday with our friends Cherlyn, Charles and Jax. We had a great time! I guess we have reached a new phase of “Baseball Eve” where we can actually stay seated with her. Of course the fact that she had her buddy Jax to hang out with probably helped, [...]

Cats

A couple of friends, whom we met on the bus to our old daycare over a year ago, regularly foster kittens. We went to visit their most recent batch. Last time she scared the crap out of their kittens. I’m sure they all had to be placed in families with no kids because of us. [...]
Under the spell

I love how kids are just comfortable with everybody. We spent last Saturday with Hoagy and Janece and Eve was drawn to Hoagy. It didn’t matter that Hoagy didn’t ask for it or that he doesn’t really know what to do with kids; she was all over him.

As you might know, Eve has developed a taste (an obsession?) for watching videos and photos of herself on the computer. After we came back from France, I had a few new videos under my sleeve, so some mornings she would watch a playlist on youtube with videos of herself. She has been under the [...]

Going shopping… Les courses… We got to spend one afternoon in Saint-Malo with our friends Gabrielle and Yannick, and their three little kiddos. Eve and Elsa, the youngest, are just a few months apart, and were very cute together, but Noé, the eldest, was also very nurturing with Eve. Unfortunately Aël got sick that day [...]

Nesting

Since we came back, one of Eve’s favorite games has been to set up a sleeping area for herself, her oversize dog and her dolls in the living room. She can easily spend 30 minutes rearranging the blankets (she helps herself to her ow blankets on the shelf in her bedroom) and pillows. Sometimes she [...]
Surrogate sisters

Does every first child wish s/he had a big sister or brother? I wanted a big sister–I was lucky enough to have a few surrogate big sisters around me, mainly my older cousin Sophie. Eve seems to be that way, too. In any case, she loved hanging out with my cousin Marguerite’s daughters, Alice, 7, [...]
