Christmas Day

Lovely Christmas Day here in France.

Hazel wore a lovely new frock and fur collar cardigan and an ugly pair of too small blue slippers (some arguments are just not worth having...).

She was well pleased with her loot.

This is her best 'way-hey-hey, new wheels!' face.

Even the socks were awesome.

Santa was 

And as it's Christmas, she had some bubbly (lemonade).

Hazel decorates the tree

Hazel had a fun time decorating the tree with her Mamie.

So much so that it has been undecorated, and redecorated several times since... 

Dress ups

The Nut got a cat mask and tail in her advent calendar today.  

As you can see, this went down pretty well - she was still wearing it at bed time!

What does Father Christmas say?

Figured out this gig....

No tears this year.  Are you kidding?  This is the dude that brings the presents.  

HELL YEAH I WANNA SIT ON HIS KNEE!!!

Strike a pose

Apparently this is what I look like when taking photographs.... 

Like a Tiger

Everyone needs a tiger hat and orange sunnies...

Baby Gym

On Saturday morning, Hazel goes to Bébé Gym, and she loves it!

Weekend with our besties!

Lovely long weekend with Mia and family.

We showed them the sites of our town (the park and the river), and introduced them to some of the local "wildlife".

What's the best bit when baking a cake?

Licking the bowl.  Err nerr.

Birthday lunch

Claire and Hazel celebrated their birthday together this weekend.

There was cake.

And family.

And cuddles.

 Funny hats.

Bubbles. 

 Balloons!

And a tricycle!!

 And a little light reading.

All round top weekend.
