Trip to Rochacha the amazing!

This week, we went to ROC to visit friends.

Amélie was very helpful in the planes, and also loved our bus ride around town:



Amélie also enjoyed the swimming pool and the jacuzzi at the hotel, as well as sleeping in a full size bed (first time we pass on the baby crib, and it worked)!

We also went to the Zoo with Nya and PH:



When we got home, we asked her what part of the trip she liked most... Her response? 'Coming Home!'...

En vrac

Amélie met with Matt and Colleen last weekend, it was the first time they had seen her since she was 10 weeks old... Quite a difference indeed:



Matt taught her a whole choreography and the lyrics of 'Shake Your Booty', we have videos of this, but in the interest of preserving Matt's reputation as a serious cognitive scientist and Tier-1 university professor, we decided not to share with you all!!

Amélie and daddy also went to Ringling Circus with Rena and her family, they had a blast! Ringling is one of the oldest circus in the States, and they have an amazing show:







Amélie was mesmerized!

Finally, Amélie attended her first Taekwondo lesson this week, she loved it and has now become a Tiger Cub! Pictures of this will be posted soon, after through sewing magic, we get the way too big kimono to her size!
