Day at the park

I know I haven't written in a VERY VERY long time, I apologize.. I kept putting it off, and now here we are. The girls are now almost 22 months old, and funnier and more entertaining than ever. Learning new words every day, they love feeding their babies, and pretending to talk on the phone.

I'll start by posting some cute pictures of the girls at a park we went to a few weeks ago. They had so much fun, not at the actual playground, which was tiny, but walking around the park, playing with leaves, and running around. They love being outside, and their favorite thing to do around the house is pick clover flowers. Chaya often comes running saying "Maman!" with a flower for me.

Je sais que ca fait TRES TRES longtemps que je n'ai pas ecrit ici, excusez-moi.. Je procrastinais chaque jour, et me voila finalement. Les filles ont presque 22 mois, et elles sont plus droles et plus amusantes que jamais. Elles apprennent de nouveaux mots chaque jour, aiment nourrire leurs poupees, et font semblant de parler au telephone.

Je vais commencer par partager des photos d'une visite au parc, il y a quelques semaines. Elles ont eu beaucoup de plaisir, pas vraiment en jouant au parc tel quel, mais en se promenant partout dans le parc, en jouant avec les feuilles, et en courant tout partout. Elles adorent etre dehors, et leur activite preferee dehors c'est de cueillir des fleurs de trefle. Chaya vient souvent en courant vers moi en disait "Maman!" et elle me donne une petite fleur.

Chaya thought it the funniest thing ever to throw leaves on Anjali's head

Mardi Gras 2013

Mardi Gras is parades, beads, king cake, music and fun! This year it was fun to enjoy it with the girls, they loved getting all the beads and stuffed animals at the parades! Their daddy always gets very excited at parades, he wants to get as much stuff as possible, you should see him jumping up and down at every float that goes by, yelling at them to throw him the best biggest beads, or stuffed animals for his girls.


Mardi Gras, c'est les parades, les colliers de perles, le gateau du roi, la musique et le plaisir! C'etait tres l'fun cette annee d'en profiter avec les filles, elles ont beaucoup aime recevoir tous pleins de colliers et de toutous aux parades! Leur pere est toujours tres excite aux parades, il veut avoir le plus de choses possible. Vous devriez le voir, il saute devant chaque char allegorique, en leur criant de lui lancer les plus beaux et plus gros colliers, et les toutous pour ses filles.

We went to one parade in New Orleans, the Krewe of Pontchartrain

Walking back to the car

We went out on a real date, to a Mardi Gras cajun dance! We used to love going to
these dances once or twice a month before having the girls. It was great to be out,
and have fun on the dance floor, and listen to some nice live cajun music!

Avec Anjali, a la parade Spanishtown, la plus populaire a Baton Rouge.
Tout le monde s'habille en rose ce jour-la.

Snack time!

I made some whole wheat King Cake for the first time ever.
It's a popular cake eaten before Mardi Gras.
The girls really liked the icing on top. ;)
