It was Father's Day this past Sunday (yes, and to continue on my rant on Mother's Day post... Father's Day here in France is the same day as everywhere else in the world. Go figure!!). Unfortunately, the big Annual Father's Day Picnic that is organized by MESSAGE (in which Daddy is in the 'spotlight' as he entertains the kids with his now famous guitar playing and singing) was cancelled due to 'The return of the Toxic Catepillars' (I know, it sounds like a bad 'B' movie or something but they're real. check out this link : http://www.xetronella.com/caterp.html ! We'd decided to err on the side of caution and cancelled the event, which was a real pity. But we still had a lovely day... we went out for lunch with everyone, including Seraphine, to our neighbourhood chinese restaurant. Bibou had her all time favorite 'tung hoon' (or glass noodle) soup and boy was she a happy camper! She ate everything up and was really chatty. She kept asking for 'more' of course. She was (relatively) well behaved while we had our lunch of steam boat and Korean BBQ on our table.
Then we came home and gave the Daddies their presents! Bibou as always was thrilled whenever presents are involved (though she still hasn't gotten the concept of 'giving' the presents - whenever she sees presents, she WANTS to open them). But we managed to get her to give the presents to both Kongkong and Daddy. She also gave a present to Daddy that she personally made at the creche the other day. His own hand made (and painted) personal post-it board!
That afternoon, after a romp in the park with Daddy and Kongkong, Bibou pulled out the water pistols and had a boisterious time with Daddy and especially Kongkong with the guns. She got quite wet but also got Kongkong wet too. She was quite good with the guns, and at one point, even was double fisted, "Chow Yuen Fatt" style! LOL.
Here's a video of Bibou playing with Kongkong. She had a particulalry funny comment there : I'm all wet!
Oh and her going the 'wrong way'. But actually, what she was doing was going round the to the front to 'load' up her water pistol... with more water.
Here's a video of Bibou playing with Mahmah and Kongkong in the garden earlier in the week.
