Bonjour from France
Sunday, January 25th, 2009Bonjour or “Hello”
My name is Ruth and Richard has very kindly asked me to join the Lullaby Babies blog. I am mother to a, mostly, charming four month old baby girl called Izzy. We live in the French Alps with her dad and his parents though we hope to move into our own place in a few months.
We moved here a month ago from Gran Canaria, but that’s a whole other story, so life has had lots of change recently. I was worried that all the moving and new places and people would upset the baby and disrupt her sleeping at night, but we have been very lucky that she has adapted well.
There are a few things that she finds confusing, just a month ago I would pop a babygrow on her and she would be ready for the day, no fuss no bother. Now the babygrow is just the start; there is a tee shirt, leggings, socks and jumper so I have to use all my best tricks to keep her entertained on the changing table in the morning as she gets layered up for the day.
Though I think it is all my extra layers at feeding time she finds most frustrating. I can see her thinking; “I didn’t order a mouthful of wooly jumper with my milk!”
I hope you will enjoy sharing my view of motherhood, I’m not expert, just a beginner that is enjoying learning with her baby.
