Lulu

lulu daughter

We are home after a wonderful journey that gave us the best Christmas present ever. Lulu was born on Christmas day at 12:28 am. She is our bundle of joy. We are learning about her; she is learning about us, and we love her dearly. It is really how many parents describe: irreplaceable.

Needless to say that life has been busy since then. And not much cooking has yet been happening.
On my end, I am already loving feeding her, and I sense that she loves that too.

  336. Bravo ma petite Béa, Congralations! Toutes mes félicitations pour cette merveilleuse Poupée. Je suis contente pour toi et ton doudou. Yes, nous apprenons beaucoup de nos enfants, cela a été mon expérience. J’espère qu’elle aura toutes tes qualités. Je ne connais pas tes parents uniquement à traveers toi; mais je suis convaincue que papa et maman sont fous de joie. Je voudrais te dire et ceci depuis longtemps qu’une grande tendresse se dégage de ton blog. Je ne peux m’empêcher d’être émue mon coeur fond. Peut être parce que nous partageons ce que nous apporte le YOGA.

  358. We are home now from a 3 month trip to Australia and NZ, and I have re-subscribed to your blog. I did look at it while I was away but not on a regular basis. Do publish some more photos of your lovely Lulu, she must have changed a great deal since the early photos. I think I will try your Comte cheese tartlets, they look really good.
