Play

As she sees better and smiles more often, it is a lot more fun to be with Claire now. Before she was just a meatloaf who only cares about food, attacking the nipple like a starving fish in early spring jumping to take the bail. Now she is more attracted by and more aware of the world around her. She stares at the people around her, computer screen, paintings on the wall, or even the bottom of chairs with great intensity. It is very satisfying to see her more at ease in her new environment. The small animal struggling to adapt to a new world is thriving.

Here is a video of her playing with her musical mobile.

Le Bain

Claire aime apparement se baigner. Nous allons lancer l'operation "Claire a la piscine" probablement la semaine prochaine avec pour objectif (ambitieux) de la voir nager 50 metres pour ses trois mois.

after bathing

Claire got a lot of acne (or some sort of rash) on her face and around her neck. We dare not put her to sleep in the car seat any more, she sweats a lot more sleeping there. Her face feels like sand paper now. Any experienced mums here who can give me some tips on what to do with it?

On dort / 睡覺啦

We prepared a beautiful crib for Claire, but she ends up sleeping everywhere except in her own bed. Recently her favorite bed, other than people's arms, is the car seat. I put her to sleep in the car seat even during the night these two days. Before she mainly slept in our bed during the night and during the day, she sleeps on the changing pad on the sofa sometimes.

Friday after five - Claire's first outdoor concert

The famous Michael, who was supposed to drive me to hospital when Antoine was in France. At the end, we did make him drive to the hospital, not me, but my mum. the morning when Claire was born.


As usual, she slept through every outdoor activity we brought her to, no matter if it is grocery shopping, walks, visits of any kind.
