2008-05-17T12:24:00.001-07:00

It's been a long time we didn't post any pictures!! Times have been very busy with lots of work, lots of travelling, visitors and an axcellent ski season :-)!

We spent the first week end of May in Burgundy to celebrate the 60th Birthday of Corinne's parents. A good opportunity for Luca to see his cousins he loves so much!

2007-11-18T13:04:00.000-08:00

We all went to the Laax - no this is not the LA airport - but a ski resort in the Swiss Alps. Luca had great fun playing with his girlfriend whose long blond hair he just loves playing with.
But most importantly, it was his first time standing on skis!!It took him a while to want to try it out, but once he did, we could not get him off his skis and he even walked around the restaurant with his skis still on his feet...

Luca's first steps

2006-07-25T10:39:00.000-07:00

That's it - Luca is walking!!! He took his very first steps two weeks ago. Last Friday he was very proud to have completed 6 steps in a row and on Sunday he started being comfortable walking. Crawling is still the most effective way to get somewhere fast...

Friday April 21st: first time crawling!!

2006-04-24T22:14:00.000-07:00

Luca crawled for the first time Friday afternoon. Corinne pulled his arms forcing him to follow up with his knees/legs and all the sudden he got it!...and he started crawling away - being the happiest baby in the world with all these new places to explore!! The smile on his face - sooooo cute!!
Looks like we will have to move all our plants out of the way if we want them to keep a few leaves...Luca already stripped them pretty good....

Luca has had a rough week: 4 new teeth trying to make their way out, 3 days of high fever and later in the week a little cold. Luca had a hard time sleeping with the stuffed nose and wasn't always in his best mood. Bathtime is always the best though...regardless of how little sleep he got!!

Happy baby has two new teeth!

Happy Luca, proudly showing his old teeth... Two new ones came out last night!
