Julien's play group

I finally have the time on Wednesdays to go to a play group in the neighborhood. And his favorite toy is...

This is for little babies, but he got to play with it when Hugo was sleeping

Going outside while the weather was still nice

Exactly as the title says, we tried to get out as much as possible while the weather was still nice.  It's now October, and some places not too far already got snow last week! It might be a loooong winter.....

This is our house when we stay in...

Another day out

Before I post these pictures, I need to explain my daily barriers to becoming "swiss".  I learned this week, after multiple attempts at translations, that children here are required to cover their notebooks from school.  All the notebooks are provided by the school, and the its the parent's job to cover these flimsy notebooks (I have no idea how many, but apparently its a lot).  I'm assuming its to cover them like we would cover hardback books from school. So I bought paper from the store, ready to cover these notebooks, and the next day, there is an article in the newspaper, that the state of Vaud, no longer requires children to cover these notebooks.  So now I have nice skull and crossbones paper to wrap birthday presents!

Anyway, being the end of August in Switzerland, its not warm enough to go to the pool, so we all went to the park.

End of summer

School starts in 1 week !!! Luckily the weather has been good enough to get to the pool at least twice a week.  Vincent can swim by himself, he actually jumped into the diving pool today for the first time.

Hopefully next year I can get some more pictures, the last pool went went to had some really cool slides for Vincent.

He started going down head first after he watched the big kids....
