One day, the ladybug will enter my garden
... and if water and sun join together, then these will be the flowers the ladybug will discover (anticipated proud smile 
)
)Boy-ish bits
With much care, the doc helped Loup yesterday to push backward the skin on his sensitive bit :)
Next month he'll do it again. A bit further.
Loup did not scream, cry or anything... no, the only reaciton from Loup was to pee on the doc's suit! lol
It was the 6th months' visit. Loup is now 9.5kg for 70cm
All the tests went ok, he can now start with meat and more veggies.
The only (lil) problem is that he still does not sleep well at night.
So we try something with the doc for 3 weeks then we'll see.
Oh and poor lil wolf, he has also caught an otitis.
penis stuff + otitis + injection ... that was a heavy day for my supa hero!
Loup, just after the doc's appointment
hyper traumatisé le bougre :P

Boys don't cry
...and girls do not gossip maybe?
(shrugging)
I hate when I hear someone telling that to a kid!
***
I take Loup to the doc tomorrow morning...for an injection and (trembling in my boots) for a decalottage. I haven't found any translation in English.
It has nothing, almost nothing to do with circumcision.
Except that it's done to avoid infections
The act itself consists in helping the foreskin to go backwards. Helpful against infections, no doubt, and to avoid pain during the first intimate relationship later.
Nature can make the work itself, but the doc can help the nature that does not prove to be always very efficient in this matter.
In France, the *decalottage* is not the fashion at the moment. People scream about unecessary torture (it seems it's a bit painful for the baby), other know that infections a couple of years later can be really really more painful.
I find it really kewl that we have the courage to do it for Loup actually.
I trust my doc, and Martin and I know we want that for Loup... yet, I won't be happy happy on my way to the doc!
An hour before going there, we have a lil cream to put on the skin that will act as local anaesthesia... and it's been 2 days Martin and I try this cream on our own skin to check it works... ermm, so far no chance!
Wish me, no, wish Loup -and me- luck for tomorrow :)

New Server and mammoth beast
On the day I change of server, I know which text I'll use for my dearest visitors 
"It's alive!
If you can read this it means you're looking at the site on our new server. And that means you're a winner. Anybody who can't see this message is a stupid butt face. And since they can't see this message, let's also add that they have a small penis. But not you. You're awesome. And your penis is a MAMMOTH BEAST."
lol
found on the brilliant Superficial.com :P

As for the works, just for memory, there was no window in this room, it was just a room covered with ugly green plaster... The view is fantastic from here, and in front of that window there will be the guests' bedroom! ;-)
This time we've worked on the corner, stairs and walls upstairs.

What a feeling....!
Who will give the right meaning to the dream I've had during a nap yesterday?
Okies, here is how it went:
Martin put our names to follow some physical training (but fun: taekwondo mixed with aerobics, lol) in a ...police station.
On the day we come, the training has changed into a dance contest (Flashdance type, hehe), still based on taekwondo + aerobics.
I was so stressed I could have peed in my pants (thank gawd for me bed, I did not! lol).
I don't know who won, and too bad the brain cannot take digit pics, it would have been fookin fun to show you!

Yuss, dat's me!
We're just back, we've worked hard on the house (renovated 2 *old stones* walls, prepared another one for next time), we've worked hard in the garden (planting trees and flowers! yessssss!!!! wunnnnerful!), played with snails, ate lots of chocolate, drunk lots of very decadent *planteurs* (oh yummmmm)... and we'll be back there in 2 weeks for 3 days.
I hope my flowers are doing ok, I worry for them, will they have enough water and sun? Awwww, they're so small and fragile!
Okies, I hope you're all doing fineroo, I'll be back in a lil while with holidays' *postcards* to share with ewws
Mwaaaaaaaaa

Which chocolate...
...will you really enjoy for Easter?
I like white and pink, and I don't care if there's less cacao in these chocolates than blond roots on my head! ;-)
The week's gonna be short. On Friday we leave for a week in Bretagne. Real hard work to come in the hobbit house...(lil sigh)
But many pleasures too. There has to be some kind of balance, huh ;-)
And what are your plans for Easter?

Loup has just started a couple of days ago to eat *real* food!
Yessss!!!
And even if he still worships his milk, he loves it, of course!... More than words, images will tell you everything ;-)
And if that could help him to sleep beDer... yesterday he woke up about every hour!

A Candles' blog without a quizz
...would be like a pint full of limonade! There would be something really wrong in there :P
Okies, let's play now!
Your perfect outfit
...lol why did they ask about the favourite colour, I wonder!
Put jeans instead of that bloody mini skirt (but really, it's the kind of stuff you CAN'T wear when you have lil kids!), and that's fine!
Love the t-shirt naturally :P

The specialities *circle* (part 2)
I've got my parcel! I've got my parcel! (jumping around)
(just to remind you, I took part in of one of some internet *circles*: the aim here was to send to another mama specialities from where you live)
*My* mama comes from the French Poitou region, and she sent goodies for Lola and Loup + sweet culinary specialities for us! Yummmmmm! Not good for my lil post-birth diet, but just purrfect for my delicate stomach :P !
As the photos below can show it, we enjoyed the "broyé", a huge biscuit that you must break only with the hands before sharing it (amen ;-)
As for the parcel I made for another mama, it was hard to find stuff from Paris really! And I had not much time so finally... I chose 13 sorts of honey (lil pots) and sweets from Northen Africa (very Parisian, lol)

A mood in paper and glue
Originally I made that for Romuald's Mot-Zaïc (but I'm not sure you got it, Romuald, my email kept being returned to me!)
It was fun to do, just followed what the French word *humeur* (=mood) inspired me.
And if you want to participe to Romuald's mosaique of words, you really should! ... it makes your imagination work and yeah, the idea of creating a mosaique of words is simply brilliant :)
edit: done, my *humeur* is now part of Romuald's Mot-Zaïc! (dancing around the totem!)

I feel so tired that I've turned a bit euphoric. Could be worse...
So I'm not far, fookin tired but absobloodilutely ok :P
