Grands evenements! - Big events!

2 grands evenements se sont produit coup sur coup: Oscar fait sa premiere nuit de jeudi a vendredi! Il a dormi de minuit a 6h30 sans nous reveiller une seule fois! Regardez d'ailleurs comme il a l'air d'un ange! Et comme si ca ne suffisait pas comme exploit, il a commence a nous "parler" vendredi soir (c'est encore tres timide dans cette video mais je vous le jure, c'est vrai!).

2 big events happened in a row: Oscar slept all through the night on Thursday night! He slept from midnight till 6.30am without waking us up once! Look how he seems like an angel! And as it was not enough as a miracle, he started to "talk" to us on Friday night (ok, it is still very shy on the video but I swear, it's true!).

Une semaine chargee - A busy week

Oscar a eu une semaine tres chargee: massages lors de sa visite chez son osteopathe, visite du travail de sa Maman (ou il a meme assiste a une reunion!), rendez-vous au Consulat francais pour faire sa demande de papiers francais... mais il garde tout de meme le sourire!

Oscar had a busy week: massage by his osteopathe, guided tour of his Mum's office (where he even attended a meeting!), appointment to the French Consulate to request his French passport... but he keeps on smiling!

2 remedes pour le meme mal - 2 remedies for the same problem

Oscar a toujours beaucoup de crises de coliques: pour y faire face, nous avons trouve plusieurs remedes, dont voici les 2 exemples: se balader sur le bras de Papa et plonger dans la boisson. Vous voyez qu'Oscar est meme pret a se battre pour defendre sa choppe!

Oscar still has a lot of stomach cramps: to try to calm them down, we found a few remedies. See below 2 examples: to hang over Daddy's arm and to start to drink. See how Oscar is even ready to fight to keep his beer!

Et il sait meme dire au revoir maintenant!

And he even knows how to say goodbye now!
