November 13: I made it to Paris - the train was late but I was asleep so it did not bother me too much. I can't wait to see my mamie and pay though.
November 14: I spent my 1st day in Paris walking in the 8th and meeting friends for lunch. I especially liked the parc Monceau where my mom played as a kid.
With my mom on the train on my way to Fontainebleau -
we met lots of kids and had a nice walk in the forest.

I had my first piano lesson on Tuesday with our friend Jay.
Who knew playing Ives was so hard? Maybe I should stick to my Mozart K305.

It's been a great week in Paris - the wine, the food, the company, everything. Tomorrow I am heading back home to Switzerland to recuperate before my next trip.

My first solid food - yum yum. Give me some more of that rice cereal.
I had to wait almost five months for this.

[Do you want "more" Noah? Of course I do - why even ask??? Since I was born, the clowns did three hand gestures which I later learned were milk, more and up... (November 28)]
[Ah - finally more food (November 28)]
November 30: After a rocky night two days ago, I had my best night ever last night. I went to bed at 9pm, and slept through until 6:15am! Wow!
I like playing with Penelope the cow - moooo (Photo November 29 - tweet December 1)

December 1: Two good nights in a row. Can we make it three? The French say "jamais deux sans trois" - hope they are right!
December 2: I ate two hours ago and still have not spit up. My first spit-up free meal! and I had another good night last night. That's 3 in a row.
December 3: Guess where I went this morning? To the creche (day care) for adaptation! New toys to play with, and new babies to stare at (and drool on).
Heidy-ho, here-we-go... learning to walk.
How do you like my funky new contraption?
