Updates


It's been awhile since I've posted anything. As you can tell by the picture above, it has been very cold in Grenoble since we've been back. In fact it's been so cold that Gabriella actually asks for her hat and gloves as we are leaving the house. Lol, and that's saying a lot if she's wants a hat! Gabriella is doing well, she's growing up too fast. She's been so sick lately, so she's had a rough few weeks. But hopefully she'll start feeling better soon. She has become such a kid since we've gotten back to Grenoble. She talks in sentences now and even likes to pick out her own clothes in the mornings. Here are a few of her favorite things right now:

  • Cooking, she has to help with every meal
  • Playing with her friends
  • Picking out her clothes and hair bows in the mornings
  • Going for walks with out her stroller
  • Kittens
  • Dogs
  • Going shopping and trying on jewelry or shoes


Trevor is back to the grind with school again. It was a slow start after Christmas break, but this program never lets us down and he is back to being crazy busy. He is enjoying it and trying to keep up with us and school. We just planned a trip to Prague and we leave this Friday. Which will be really fun except that it's supposed to be really cold! I guess we didn't plan that very well.

I'm doing well too, my laptop crashed a few weeks ago. So we invested in a new one, in the picture above Gabriella is trying to sneak her fingers on the keyboard since we've told her she can't push buttons on this one. Lol, she's such a toddler.

Little Traveler

Gabriella has become quite the little traveler lately. Since we traveled home, she can't stop pulling her Dora suitcase everywhere she goes.

 Not only does she need her suitcase, you can't leave the house without her backpack and purse! I think I'm in big trouble as this little girl grows up.
 We took a quick day trip to Lyon over the weekend. It was such a nice day and so nice to have a mini getaway. Despite the fact that Gabriella didn't sleep all day, she was really good.



 We went to a puppet show while we were there.






As you can tell, Gabriella loved the puppet show and the trip!! We are enjoying being back although we are missing our friends and family like crazy. The weather has been great here the sun has acutally been shining every day this week. So we've been enjoying the parks again. Gabriella is talking like crazy now in French and English. Her favorite word right now is yeah, she says it all the time. Lol and of course she still says bon bon any chance she can!
