Introducing Marie

She changes diapers, bakes apple pie, catches chickens, pushes swings and even swims! 

Amelia was leading the way at the zoo this weekend. An excellent guide. 

The end of summer

Summer ended with the thunderstorm this morning. Or maybe on Tuesday which marked a series of firsts for our family. First day of new preschool for Amelia. First day of work for mom. First day Antoine spent with Marie, our Au pair. 

Some final pics from summer. Here is Amelia riding a tortoise at her new school picnic. 

I think she is excited. Here at Viking Days. 

I love how she is holding her brother. They were watching a Viking play flute.
