A storm of posts! Sorry.
I just want to celebrate Xavier’s new efforts in pedaling… on 2 wheels! Congrats to my ‘Zazoo’!

Xavier no.95: in pictures

I already said that Xavier took up baseball, but I didn’t have pictures. We have corrected this situation!

You can’t see on the pictures, but the back of his t-shirt states “Xavier 95″. Hehe!

Xavier numéro 95

Xavier had his first baseball session tonight! He really liked it — although we’ll have to explain the location of the 2nd and 3rd bases a little better! No matter, he was quite happy to run, hit the ball and (try to) catch it.

At registration, I was asked which number he’d like to wear. If it works out, he’ll be 95: the same as his hero, Lightning McQueen himself, haha!

No pictures today… another time, maybe!

Orly’s bedroom gets amazing light in the afternoon.

“That’s the last one, mommy, ok?”
What! But I love taking pictures of you…! Do you know why I like having pictures of you?

“Because you love me very much…”
That’s RIGHT!!

Aaahhh… there you go!

On fait le plein

On arrive de la Beauce avec notre commande annuelle de sirop. Paraît que ça va être une année sucrée :

Petite chanson inventée du matin

Émilie — Wed, 14 Apr 2010 17:13:36 +0000

[Sur l'air de "Lundi matin, le roi, la reine et leur p'tit prince..."]

UN p’tit Xavier,
s’en allait su’l ch’min à pied,
et il rencontra,
un p’tit bonhomme assis là.
Le p’tit bonhomme lui dit :
“J’m'appelle Xavier moi aussi!
Viens avec moi;
on va aller, par là!…”

DEUX p’tits Xaviers
s’en allaient su’l ch’min à pied,
et ils recontrèrent
un p’tit bonhomme assis là.
Le p’tit bonhomme leur dit :
“J’m'appelle Xavier moi aussi!
Venez avec moi;
on va aller, par là!…”

TROIS p’tits Xaviers
(et ça continue…)

On a une autre version avec Orléane, qui marche dans les bananes.

PS. Sorry, English friends: this is a silly invented song, no translation for it.
