Sunshine? IN Paris??? WHAT???

Summer has finally arrived and we have beautiful sunshine and hot weather! Today, Brian slept in and Michael and I went to get breakfast. After hanging around the house, we went to the park with Michael where he had a great time as usual.

For Father's Day, I gave Brian a ping pong playing set so we tested it out today! Michael LOVED it and would chase around the ping pong balls for us when they wouldn't quite make the table. Which was often because I was playing.

Anyways, one of the times that Michael went to get the ball, he ran STRAIGHT into the ping pong table (that is CONCRETE) and hit it headfirst. EEK. No blood, but it did leave a mark.

We decided it was safer to let Michael sit on the table and we played around him. That was super fun because I would hit the ball to him and he would throw it back to me. It was great!

Then, a 2.5 year old girl took an interest in Michael. She chased him all around and tried to hug him and hold his hand. He wasn't too interested though! It was amusing to say the least because she WOULD NOT leave him alone. Even when Michael got off the playground to walk around, she ran after him. Aggressive!

Then, Michael napped in his stroller and Brian and I enjoyed a quiet lunch at our favorite local cafe, L'Entracte.

In the afternoon, Michael squealed with delight as Brian and I kicked the soccer ball around the house in a very nice game of keepaway. Of course, we did let him catch it quite often so he would still play but it was so fun to spend family time.

So that was the theme of the day! FAMILY TIME! It is good because we will be apart soon and we needed this time to be together!

This week, the sitter is coming and Brian and I are going to go eat and play ping pong at the park. I am so excited.

Love,

Oh...My...GOD

I found Dr. Pepper at my local grocery store. The one I go to all the time and get delivery from. It was in the "International Food" section and was underneath all the British stuff.

It cost 1.02 euro a can (about $1.50) but I bought one anyways. I haven't opened it yet. Waiting for a special occasion where I will be eating lots of fried foods.

Love,
