Nursing bras... to be improved!

Reading Jenny's bloggie (ya should see the pics of her boy! Adorable!) the other day reminded me how happy I've felt when I stopped breast-feeding Loup a couple of months ago!
Oh mind you, I LOVED it and miss it, but I was so HAPPY to get rid of these bloody nursing bras! I made an overdose of them. Oh they're practical, and there's a market, you get some choice, but tsssss they're really ugly! No way you can feel sexy with dem (what, a young mama can't feel sexy? and why not!)... and having to wear them night and day, not fun, really!

Show me where's the revolution, I have bras to burn here :P

Here are a few exemple (ok, the ugliest kind! But the *cuttest* are not very different from these! lol)



but okies, in the Anti-Glamour field, there is worse, MUCH worse....
The pictures speak for themselves, doesn't they?



and

When the mirror does not speak...

... my bloggie makes the job!
Here's the lil questionary Mel' has sent me.

Who am I?
not a Blond with heavy boobs!

How old people tell I am?
I really have no idea (what would you say????). I'd give myself about 25 (lol)

Who knows me really well?
definatly my other-half, and those who know me let's say "pretty" well... Penny, Marine and Esox I think :-)

The most important *thing* in my life?
my lil family

I always wear
my 4 rings, my piercing and 8 ear-rings (yusss, I'm a heavy girl)

I always do
listen with much pleasure to my friends' lil secrets :P (lol)
try to make people comfortable (to reach point #1 of course ;-)

I am the happiest
when I've finished a painting, when it's Friday evening, when I laugh with friends, when Lola asks for a cuddle, when Loup gives me a *snail kiss*, when Martin and I are together! Yesss!

On Monday morning, I am...
bloody tired!

My eyes are
certainly devilish (or are they just fragile? -shruggs-): they get red quickly

The object I prefer
my boots, my puter, a full champ' glass, my massage creams, our dining-table when there's 10 candles on it

Martin, Jack, your turn! And no excuse... (s)

The yummy specialities *circle*

I guess you've heard about the web concept that consists in sending a book to an unknown person and receive one the same way.

In one of the forums in which I actively participate, the idea is this time to send a lil package with some food specialities of the region where you come from.

I have the adress of the person who will receive it, I only know she's a mama.
My package is almost ready, with mainly sugary stuff in it (fighting against meself to not open any of the goodies I've prepared!)... I'll tell more about it when the woman will have it (just in case she visits my bloggie ;-)

And I can't wait either for MY package! I'm ready to try anything yummy!
LOL

We should do something like that someday with our circle of blog'users/visitors. Don't you find the concept is a groovy idea?!

Big boy

Yup, we've welcome another big boy at home!

We had ordered the high-tech canon 350D 4 months ago, looking for the cheapest prices for every part of it. We got pretty quickly the (HUGE) lenses, but only got the camera a couple of days ago.
Well, we got it for 50% of the usual price which deserved some patience from us!

I've seen there were books published about how to use this camera... which scares me a bit! lol
I think I'll let Martin tame the beast, then I'll ask him about the basics about it (s)
By the way, Martin thinks about changing his blog into a photo blog. Kewl idea!

A lil victory and a lovely pic

Finally, Lola has asked to stop wearing nappies during night!
YESSSS!
And it's her final word (phewwww!)

Ok, it's a bit late but we wanted her to take the decision, since forcing her had not been a very good idea...

Well done, my independent shrimpette!

Who's got a hangover after St Patrick's day?

Not the Irish, not the Scots, nor the Frawnch :P

My two favourite moments of the day..

..are when I share laughs and cuddles with my devils, and when these devils finally jump into bed ;-)



The week has been fantastic with Martin's parents around! I had real free time and that felt wunnerfully strange :-)
So I can tell I'm relaxed now, though (same ol' song I warn you) really tired. Naturally because Loup keeps asking for milk at 2.00 or 4.00 am, but mainly because Lola's been coughing so much that sometimes I did not manage to sleep more than 4 hours.
I want a night of peaceful sleep!
And I'm glad to take the pill again, I don't want such short nights for my next 3 lifes at least! lol

The sun, a wunnerful pretext

Because yesss Paris is being very sunny since a couple of days!
It feels oh jeeezzzz so guuuuuuuud
I had forgotten its sweet warmth on the skin
(happy sigh)

Well, that being said, hehe... this bloggie is no more than an excuse, a pretext to add this photo of a Spring-ish Marilyn! I love it!

Emballage

Flowers look so much beder when coming from the lil posh shop than from the supamarket...
Wine taste so wunnerful in this beauDiful crystal glass, much beder than in the big water glass!
Oh and coffee feels unique in this lil cup with a terrific design, much more than in this brown plastic glass
Now books with hard, refined cover keep much more my attention than those with a kitsh paperback cover...
And yes, I feel more glamour when wearing expensive undies than wearing the supamarket's ones

oh and you will agree on this one...

A woman is more beaudiful in a sexy lil dress than in ugly sports clothes!**

Soooooo?
I admit, I confess, I reckon, and I accept that
I AM superficial!
eeeeeeck
And I bet I'm not the only one (S)



...I'd happily conclude introducing you a gossip-ish website (I've got the link via Michelle! Yayyyyyyyy!), and don't tell me you've not scrolled down to get more gossips once there!

---

** this does not work for men, a gardener is sexy dressed as a gardener, a plumber as a plumber, a fireman as a fireman! LOL

mais i' sont où ?...

mais i' sont où ? ...tralalalala la

Sowwwy, a lil pleasure... rugger today... oh brilliant!
...and these trained thighs all around...
No rilly..
(faint)

My Nirvana

...is for me: free time

And I'll reach a Nirvana next week, yup.

Martin's parents join us for 7 days, and this is f-a-n-t-a-s-t-i-c.
....because of course I'm over happy to see them, but also because the kids will love it too!

okok, here are my plans
-this rendez-vous in the beauDy center with my mama
-a cinema with Lola
-a birthday at some Lola's friend (well, that does not sound supa cool BUT when you only have ONE kid with you, it's already Heaven)
-3 restaurants (Sowwy ya Mr Diet), one with Martin, one with Lola and Martin at Martin's work, and one with Michelle, my guuud American friend.
-lots of time to paint

I can't wait for the restaurants part. I never have the opportunity to go there without the kids!
One with Martin is like Heaven!
One with a goilfriend is also wunnerful, I think it's been a few years (NO KIDDIN) since I have been to a restaurant with a goilfriend like that. SCARY!

De battre mon coeur s'est arrêté

(The Beat that My Heart Skipped)

The 8 Cesars French movie got excellent critics all around. I did not find the topic exciting at all, but so many good critics in the papers and well... 8 cesars...! I thought we'd get a wonderful surprise.

French cinema can be so boring sometimes. We could not watch it till the end (time's too precious!).
The only cesar that should have been justified was for the main actor. But he did not get it, lol.

We'll spend beder moments with the Oscars' movies this year, no doubt ;-)

Say "ouistiti" !

My *grunge lil princess* (watta style, huh!) has just had her first school photo yesterday!
Yeahhhh



So we all spent the evening playing at the "school photo". The shrimpette painted our faces with make-up and we had to pause for 30 minutes for Lola the photographer.
We had no right to poke our tongue out, to laugh, talk or make noise.

LIFE IS NOT FUN AT SCHOOL!

***

PS: Pauline, Arnaud, z'avez vu comme la puce adore la robe? Si elle pouvait la porter 24h/24, sûr qu'elle le ferait. Incredible! What a good choice!

International Women's Day

I feel concerned though my life as a woman is perfect.
Thank you, you men and women who fought for our rights, you've made of our life here a priviledged (?) one. No, a normal one! Which is even more important.

I hope somehow I'll manage to help the same way other women to have a normal life too.

When Paris is NOT cheap

After 4 months, I've just finished spending time and money at my dentist-the-butcher. I've spent there more than 2000 euros...!
700 euros for a crown!

Then I've realized everyday life was really expensive around.
For Lola and Loup's doc, I spend 55 euros each time...
Worse, for my bits (gyno), I spend 65 euros for a rendez-vous!

Thank gawd, complementary insurance exists!

Even bread is expensive now, almost 1 euro for a baguette!

SIGH

A contre-courant

I've watched something on tv the other day where they said that people gave less and less importance to dining-rooms. And companies selling furniture had started to adapt themselves to the situation.
(lol, yeah I know, I'm about to jump into a very exciting topic ;-)

People tend to have their meals on their sofa in a few minutes only. Preferably in front of tv.
Sometimes by choice, sometimes because of lack of space... As it's been the case for us..

We've desperatly tried to find a way to get a real table for meals. Our flat is really small and every corner occupied with a fireplace or a door. That was impossible to put a table without blocking the way.

Till we found that the ONLY answer to our lil probbie was a 80cm diameter round table! A Bigger one wouldn't fit, a smaller one wouldn't be ok for more than 2 people.

But average tables are bigger than that!

We've been looking for it since months now. And finally we found it! A garden table!

You can't, no, you can't imagine the pleasure it's been today to have a normal meal on a table.
Terrific
Much more decadent than a meal on a sofa.

Simple pleasures are definatly the best ones ;-)

2nd step towards... Womanhood!

Well, I'm still dealing with the first step (loosing the kilos I took while breastfeeding my lil wolf), second step is taking care of my bits!
(dancing around)

I've decided to take my mom to a beauDy institute in a couple of weeks! It will be a very first time for both of us :-)
She's been very stressed lately, and I've been so tired, soooo... it's the *right* moment.
I've ordered a full massage and manucure and make-up -with advice- (the tips, etc) for both of us!

Wooohooooooooooooooooo!!!

Can you believe (please take a chair, I would hate that you hurt your delicate bum), how long it takes for a manucure?
... 1.30 hour!
(faint)
Enough time to get bored to death!
...but I'll survive, yusss yussss ;-)

And the winners are...

...well I am not sure, my quest is not over... but so far my heart's beating fast for (sowwwy I'm not being original at all) Mozart, and some pieces of Tchaikovski and Prokofiev.
For Mozart, what can I say; he's an Everest. I still can't believe my ears...!

And so far, I can tell my heart's not beating much for Schubert and Chopin.

Strange how music can be *felt* so differently by people!

To be continued!

My dodudAmour

4 months and a week for 8,3 kilos
Well that doesn't tell much to anyone who doesn't have a baby of about that age, but that's a pretty heavy weight!
Thanx Gawd he also gets taller! lol



You could think he's geatting ready to face a hard winter, but nenene! Spring's in a month! Ouch! ;-)

Deliberatly unsynchronized

That's about I'd described my lil devils at the moment.
When one sleeps, the other never does
When one wanna play, the other one wants all your attention
When it's time to give a bath to one, it's time to eat for the other
When we decide to go out for a frozen walk, the other one only ask for your arms and warmth
When I have no choice but to pay attention to one only for a few minutes, the other one won't have any more patience and will start doing all what a devil can possibly do (amazing how much imagination they get in that *field*!)

Oh but I'm a baaaaaad mouff!
They CAN get synchronized!!!... when it comes to scream and cry
...or when it's 4.00am, one is hungry and the other decides she has slept enough!

How many more kids did I want again?

hehe

I'm not too tired, despite what my zombie face can tell. But really I start to find it hard to get 20 minutes in a row for meself. Almost impossible (like, it took me 3 days to write 10 words in here!).

Now, when I give the last bottle of milk to Loup in the evening, it feels so so SOOOOO *guuuud* to know a few minutes later I'll enjoy a glass of wine and start to relax... a pleasure close to a lil orgasm, no kiddin!

Delightful & Magical

From 2 different but very serious sources (waving at Toï), the last Depeche Mode's concerts (that just happened this week) were fantastic!

There are not many bands I wanna see again and again on stage, but DM is definatly one of dem.
And we've missed dem again! Booooo oooooooooo

New saying of the day

Should be easier to use than the previous one ;-)

As confused as a hungry baby in a topless bar!
lol

And to illustrate these words, my kind of topless that I dedicate to Alix and Etolane of course!
(psshhhit... the questionary is ALMOST done :-)

For better or for worse

First painting of a new series I've started with the bride and his strange lil groom as main characters.
The idea is that they're not made for each other apparently. I wanna explore in my cartoonish way some wedding's scenes :)

Futur baratineur

Loup is now 4 months old! Yeahhhh (sorry but with a new-born child, each day, each week, each month is important!)

(dancing around, while carrying my big boy **~~*^* *)

He changes a lot from a month to another... he's very awake now, asking to play all day long (sleeping ONLY 20 minutes in the morning and 20 again in the afternoon!).
He also laughs a lot when I carry him while running after Lola, I think he's already really fond of his big sister (happy sigh**~~*^* *)

It's getting more difficult to put him to bed, he does not fall asleep just like that anymore (sigh). And he still wakes up at 4.00am for a big bottle of milk! (I've stopped breastfeeding, very naturally, he just got used to milk bottles).
I'll get more details next week at the doc (size, weight, etc).

Et voilà mon petit baratineur (en tous cas je trouve qu'il en a la bouille :P):

Forum-er

Oh it feels bloody kewl to have time to relax on Blogger!
I've been so busy!
-busy with the devils
-busy with a (just finished) painting
-busy multitasking with everyday life
... and busy spending great time in forums...yup yup! 2 major forums including the absobloodilety fantastic Gals Talk of course (you haven't joined us yet? Hurry up, we're just waiting for you, and youuu yes, and youuuuuu over there hiding behind the door!)
hehe

... and busy too watching ice skating (lol, yeah I know what you all think about ice skating!), got a Bolero overdose by the way!

See, I just could not find a min to sit down and relax on here.. till now!
Phewwwwwwww :-)

Saying of the day

(to be used in some kind of posh conversation)

As tight as a Camels arse in a sand-storm

lol, I luve it!

Riders on the storm: new generation

The holidays are over but I know two lil ones who won't forget them so easily!
You could not imagine a better place to learn how to ride horses. An old farm, surrounded by green fields and very close to the river :-)

Lola and her cousin Eva have got addicted to the place and its inhabitants ;-)
And since their grand-ma has offered them as many "horses holidays" as they want, I think we'll hear about poneys and horses for the next 10 years! lol

But that's kewl, great sport with many qualities behind it (nods, nods)

Back to 1969

Lola and I have been waiting the whole week for today...

...Only 10 hours to prepare everything for Martin's birthday tonight... (I could not do anything before because Lola just can't keep any secret! On Monday she started with "Oh Papa, I have a secret about your birthday, but you MUST NOT repeat it ok?"

lol

Our first lil present will be to accept for ONE evening only to listen to ACDC and Mötorhead.. if that is not a proof of Love, huh... ;-)


ya sexy thing

(laffin, sowwwy)

Gals Talk

Sowwy guys, this is a goily bloggie, soooo... why not having a Bud and watch tv, hm?
(hehe, tsss, you know me, I'd happily share the Bud)

Ok, let's make it simple:

2 friends of mine, ol' and new friends, have just made one of their dreams come true: they've created a very schpeshul website dedicated to women. A place of freedom where we girls can share everything we've in mind.

I'm talking about Miz Penny and Mean Maude; and their baby is Gals Talk!

Hiro, Michelle (yes you, David's mama! hehe), Ariel, Jenny and all of ewwws French speaking gal friends,I'm sure you'll luve it!

...
..Because you get so easily addicted
Because we're 13 members so far, and we've to make it 14! (and I don't walk under ladders either)
Because with 13 members so far, there is some real intimacy there
Because we know the creators of the site, and dat's kewl
Because it's very easy to use
Because beyond sharing ideas, questions, advice with other women... it would not be that bad if women from different countries would join the Aussie gang. We can all bring to each other a lot!

And, no, I don't get paid for free advertisement :P

Waiting to see you there ... with a Bud or two ;-)

La boucle est bouclée

In less than 4 months, 4 wunnerful ladies (including meself, lol), who're also great blog writers (my ego's suddenly boosted), have given birth to adorable babies.

After Loup's birth, Etolane joined the gang with her Lily-Soleil, then Alix with her minimec, and yesterday, it was Jenny's turn with Sylvain!

Welcome on our noisy but bewDiful lil planet, Sylvain!

I still find it amazing that we all got preggie almost at the same time! Of course that meant I carefully followed each pregnancy with much interest, I felt more than concerned :)

Now I hope one day we'll manage to spend some time altogether with our angels around
(happy sigh)

The day after yesterday before tomorrow

...I've started the week thinking it was Tuesday already.
And I'm almost sure it's the weekend tomorrow.
You know?

I hate it when this happens... and that makes time running really slow on daytime and on ultra speed mode on evenings.

(sigh)

Who's hiding behind the Cello ?

As I told you a few weeks ago, I'm exploring classical music at the moment ... and I'm getting pretty lost! There's simply too much of it!
So I climb my Everest from another side, trying to re-discover what's really famous first, then I'll explore what bring vibes to me!

So far, I've got bits of Wagner, Prokofiev and Tchaikovski (lol do I sound posh enough with all that, hm? ;-).
I actually found unexpected and delicious vibes with 2 Romeo and Juliet! No kidding! (one from Prokofiev and the other from Tchaikovski). The walls are vibrating with them right now. Too guuuuud! Groooovy!

I'm also expecting an order of 3 second-hand CDs, something like the "best classic music in movies"! Yup, I think it will be easier for me to get familiar with classic famous stuff this way!

[IMG]http://smileys.sur-la-toile.com/repository/Musique/0014.gif[/IMG]

I was also wondering about the faces of these so famous musicians. it's a pity photography did not exist a few century ago, cause I'm sure (I hope! lol) some portraits are far from the reality.

So let's see... here's a lil gallery, do these composers *look like* their music, hm?


click here

...my first thought: hell no, they can't be who they say they are! //oO\
And then, from my newborn knowledge in that classical field, I realized these faces really suited the music I had discovered. Most of them!
Even Ravel, lol... (no offence!)

Well now, let's talk goily, my favourite one here might be Vivaldi, despite the hair! hehe
As for my favourite kind of music... I have no idea yet :)

J'ai trois Amouuuuuurs...

...mes Loulous, my Hubby
Par eux toujours
Mon cœur est raaaaavi

Valentine moon

A full moon! ...great way to start a week that will celebrate my other-half's birthday!

Our weekend was great but too much on a speeeeed mode. And Lola is still on holiday for the whole week in Paris; i won't have a minute (lil sigh)

I deeply miss/need time to work, if you only knew... but well, you just can't do everything! I know (who) what my priorities are and that's the main point! :-)))


Alice & Tom

A Breton-ish first time

Yup, first time Loup will breathe the fresh air from Bretagne tonight!
Martin's bagpipe is ready, and I can't wait to spend ermmm one day (only) there. We'll be back on Sunday (for rugger, stoopid rugger's fans ;-)

Will Lola have change in a week? I wonder! Probably!
I'm ready for hours of cuddles right now! (happy sigh)

Dinan, 5 minutes from the Hobbit house

the photo was found here

Pshhhit: have a great weekend!

knock knock

(talking to Jenny's miniboy here)

"psssshiiiit, I don't want to disturb you, I know it's comfortable, quiet and peaceful inside, but... time to join us!

**~~*^* ***^^~~*^** *

Tea-time thoughts

wanna some biscuits?
Another cupocatweewee?

Balance
I believe it must feel wunnerful walking with boots with pompoms on their side. You know? these northen winter boots. I must experience that some day.

Relieved
Thinking Yoko Ono and John Lennon were really in love, I find John a bit more friendly. So his music sounds suddenly even beDer.

Disappointed
The Rolling Stones agreed to have their (so so shoking) songs cut and sensored during the supabowl? Fook, no balls here! Probably lost them a long long time ago.

Discovery
Tofu IS yummmy! Not just a vegetarian weird stuff!

Convinced
My lil delicate mouff really prefers light red wines to heavy ones that stick to the tongue, you know?

Concerned
I would not sleep well if I were THE Danish cartoonist!

Surprised
I do enjoy electronic music like daft punk, telepopmusik, Air of course, etc. I would have never ever expected that!

Proud
Had a message from Lola, she tried gallop with her poney! How about that, huh? 3 years old and into gallops! (good I was not there I would have run along with the poney, as usual!)

Impatient
to share some great time with Esox tomorrow evening

Rugger on my way

Despite a too heavy victory from the English yesterday (grrrmmmpphhh), The 6 nations cup has started pretty well!

I can see in my cristal ball now that I'll be stuck to my sofa at about 4.00pm today, enjoying the visual and spiritual (cough) effect of the malish efforts (happy sigh) ;-)

When Scotland plays, I've no favourite, France or Scotland might win, I support both. The best way to enjoy a match at the end :P

A full big LONG week

...without Lola!
A very first time for Lola and for us, (no kidding). She's just left with her cousin Eva and her Grand-ma for a week in Bretagne.
You'll find that stoopid but I miss her already...

The positive side is that she's going to have the time of her life there, riding poneys, going to cinema, enjoying crepes, etc.
And Loup will have his mama and papa at 100% for once ;-)

We'll join Lola to take her back to Paris next weekend. 6 months we've not been to Bretagne! Despite the cold weather, I think it will feel great to be back there again! :)

have I missed a chapter or something?

"The managing editor of a French newspaper has been fired over publication of caricatures of the Prophet Muhammad that are inflaming the Muslim world, where Pakistani protesters on Thursday chanted "Death to France!" and Gaza gunmen demanded apologies from European governments"
CNN sources



(lol that was just an excuse to play with my toys :P)
...well, I doubt any dialogue is possible when you get such extremists in front of you. I just wonder why they seem to want to impose absolutely their views to people thinkings differently. Why they don't accept difference.

Petit Loup deviendra grand

I'm just back from the 3 months' visit at the doc for Loup. 2 injections, almost no cries (I'm a proud mama), and lots of smiles to the pretty nurse from my lil wolf!
lol


click here

He's now 64cm (he took 13cm in 3 months!) and has a weight of 7,300 kg (3 months ago he was at 3,800kg)... wears 6 months' pyjamas!

A lil wolf in good shape it seems (my back painfully approves :P)

He just does not make his nights yet... Always wakes up at 2, 3 or 4.00am. And he sleeps maximum 2 hours on daytime (less than Lola!)...
(sigh)
But the rest is really ok, wunnerful even, he laughs, answers my blah-blahs, tries to grab anything, etc. Very alive!

What can I say... I'm the first fan of my babes, both makes my days anyway:)

So many books, so little time

Am I am a bit late for a new year's resolution, hm?
It's just that I didn't want to chose an impossible resolution like... "I want to learn kick boxing, lose 10 kgs, quit smoking (done, 4 years ago, phewww), cook with passion, etc etc"
Nenenene. My resolution isn't a huge one. Not an Everest :)
I simply wanna read my pile of books, 1 chapter everyday maybe? T'is all I'll officially try to do. Me lazy bum :)

When I think of Martin, who spends about 1 hour everyday reading while he's in the metro, I'm a bit jealous. Ermmm, not so much of the metro ;-)
Reading is a real *Xtra* that requires xtra time, which is hard to find when you've to take care of your babes, house and biz!



Right now I'm in the middle of an exciting trilogy, The War of Souls, by Weis and Hickman. Great Fantasy, with the beloved Tas'.

And in the past weeks, I've kept my imagination busy with...

The Soulforge
by Margaret Weis. Informative (about the twins). Pretty good.

Everything's eventual
by Stephen King. Irregular. Some great short stories though.

les dents de la mort
by Xavier Maniguet. Informative, frightening! (wavin at Oz ;-)

the charnel prince
by Greg Keyes. Wunnerful, brilliant, exciting Fantasy!

Now we wait for a new second-hand books' order... my pile's gonna get higher ;-)
