Thèa goes on a weekend trip!

This Friday we went on a trip to Morières, a village close to Avignon to visit Caro's brother Thierry and his wife Stella and their two kids, Carla & Jules (they also have a cat and 2 small cute rats). The weather was superb (34°) so I was very happy to have air-condition in my car keeping the temperature around 20°. Thèa was very nice all the way and slept most of the time.
Its about 400km to their place so I was happy that she did not scream... well, only a little when she became hungry but that was 5 minutes before the planned stop so no problem!
When we arrived it did not take long before we were swimming in the pool that they have - wonderful!


We went to see Carla who had a performance (singing) with some other kids and then had a nice dinner before going to bed.


With her cousin Jules, it´s much more love !!!
Be careful, Théa, Jules is going to eat you.

Another car-seat picture.

The next day we all left to go to Montpellier to see some of the relatives on Caroline's mothers side. There was a family reunion and around 20 people invited. Luckily they also had a pool, frequently used by most of us. We had a great time and a big dinner with different types of sea food.

Here is an image of Caro's aunt, Martine feeding Thèa as we just have arrived...

The night we spent in a cheap hotel but sufficiently good for us as we were just sleeping there a few hours anyway. The day after we spent some more time with everyone before leaving at around 16.00. One of Caro's cousins is pregnant and will soon have her baby so we had to give away a wagon and a car seat that we had had on loan. We now have got a new wagon that we got from Caro´s brother and then we just bought a new car seat as well for the trip home. This seat will be good as it can be used until Théa is around 1,5 years old or until she is around 18Kg.

The brand/model is Isèos NEO and it looks just as the above pic!

The trip home went almost even better, we drove all the way from Montpellier to Bourg-en-bresse before Théa woke up. Then we just gave her something to drink (while driving) and she was fine again until arrival in Cessy. I guess she likes the new chair as well! ;)
The trip home took around 4 hours and the weather was excellent!

Here Thea is in a very cute new dress that we got from Caro's cousin Valèrie, thank you!

Yesterday (Monday), Caro bought a little inflatable boat that we put some water in so that Théa could have a bath in our garden, she seemed to be very happy for that! :)

Below are some of the pictures we took during her bath!

Thèa is smiling alot nowadays and she has started to charm us more and more, in fact I think that sometimes it's almost like she does it on purpose.
It is sometimes a little bit difficult in the evenings as she often screams a lot before going to bed but all in all she is such an adorable kid, happy, calm and beautiful.
