Can you find the ball under the glass?

She was really good at this game!

toutes simples à la française??????!!)

Amané was proud this morning
to push Pierrot the clown
in the streets....!





In the afternoon, it was too hot
to go outside, so we made
a gymnasium inside....
Waalking on the cushions,
Make the balance on a big ball,
Slalom....

What is she thinking about?

July 1st 2011

Outside it's tooo too hot!!!

And mosquitos are soooo hungry.....!!

the pool had water everywhere!

June 29th 2011

Stormy rainy day!!!!

I prepared the chair,
a plate, the apron,
I put something in the plate...
So of course she tried to eat it!

But soon she expressed herself!




The white becoming colourfull!



So good feeling on the hand!




And I had a good idea today
for the flour atelier...
In the swimming pool,
Play free!!!




And this is how Amané is asking
for something when she's upset....
Here it's for reading a book...
mouin mouin mouin......
