Lyla had a great afternoon, as did her Mummy and Daddy and eventually after all those skipped naps all the little-uns had a nice BIG sleep.
Just down the road from Nanny's house is a great little park where Felix likes to have a little run around. 
Today Luka & Aunty Ash came to join Felix, Nanna and Mummy.
The boys had great fun together as did Nanna get up and into the play area too, although she did leave the slippery slide to the boys.
We have had a great time catching up with Felix's Nanna Carol and are waiting for Daddy to arrive in a few weeks.
Felix and Mummy are off to Sydney tomorrow escaping chilly Paris for nearly two months. Daddy will be joining us in a couple of weeks too. Yippee!
So we went to visit the La Tour Eiffel this week to say our farewells for a wee while.
But of course we will still be in the land of blogging (although maybe not so frequently).
So stay tuned for some beautiful Sydney summer shots.
See you in springtime Paris!
Felix & Mummy have been talking about going to Australia and all the people we will see - Nanna Carol, Kim, Barrie, Nanny & Pappie, Caitlin, Luka, Lyla, Liam...(to name just a few). Of course the conversation then moves on to the animals we will see, the kookaburra, koala, kangaroo etc. Last night he looked at Mummy inquisitively and asked "Polar Bear?". At which point Mummy had a fit of giggles!
This morning Felix was feeling much better and luckily there were no signs of spots. So Felix & Mummy set off for the Ciné-Aqua or Paris Aquarium.
Felix was pretty excited to see all the fish and kept running from room-to-room saying "More fish! More fish!"
Although strangely enough when we saw the Shark Tank he wasn't quite so keen and kept a very firm grip of Mummy's hand.
After seeing all the fish it was time for Felix and Mummy to have some lunch in the kid-friendly café.
And then we set off back for home being quite content having seen all the fishies.
By which stage Felix was exhausted and slept all the way home!
Poorly little Felix kept his Mummy & Daddy up last night coughing and spluttering all night long.
So today Felix and Mummy had the day at home playing games, singing songs and watching The Wiggles.
Saw the Doc tonight who said it could be chicken pox (!!!!) and to keep an eye on him over the next few days.
Needless to say Mummy and Felix were not overjoyed as they fly to Australia 'sans Daddy' on Sunday! Eeekkk...
Sunday afternoon Felix, Mummy and Daddy joined Anika and her parents, not too far away from Versailles, for an afternoon 'gouter'.
Felix was feeling a little under the weather and wasn't quite himself. But once he saw all of Anika's toys he seemed to cheer up.
Isabella and her Mummy and Daddy were there too and for some reason all the little-uns (literally) were drawn to Isabella's Daddy.
A lovely afternoon was had by all!
Alas when we returned home our night was a disaster with a sickly Felix waking up on the hour every hour. Poor Felix, Daddy and Mummy!!
This week winter has finally arrived in Paris with some super chilly sub zero temperatures.
Yes, the cold has been somewhat unbearable, but luckily Australia is just around the corner!
Thanks to the marvels of layering (and leggings) Felix is staying toasty warm.
And the chilly weather doesn't seem to phase him too much.
Being Saturday today, we had a nice little family stroll up to the butcher and the baker (alas we couldn't find the candlestick maker!).
And then it was back home to our toasty warm abode for some lunch.
It's Australia Day today (as well as Aunty Caitlin's birthday) and so Felix wanted to wear his Australia t-shirt from Ash, JR and Luka.
Unfortunately the temperatures were sub zero outside so some layering was required under (and over) the t-shirt.
Felix didn't mind and was simply feeling proud to be wearing the Australian flag!
Felix is crossing his fingers that we'll all be there really soon (only 10 sleeps to go).
Happy Birthday Aunty Caitlin from Felix, Daddy & Mummy in Paris. Hope you have a lovely day celebrating your birthday and Australia Day! Felix will be frocking his Australia shirt all day (with thanks to Luka, Ash & JR).

Felix has recently taken up the habit of greeting people with a very friendly (and loud) 'Bonjour'. 
Often when we walk down the street he will say 'Bonjour' to people walking past, people in a shop and especially if we see people we know.
Amazing to see how many faces lighten up as a result of such a friendly young chap!
(These also happen to be Mummy's favourite photos 'de la semaine'!)
Felix is fast becoming a techno-maniac. He loves Mummy's iPod, loves the computer, the remote control and now the latest 'craze de la semaine' is Skype.
He started with Bon Papa...
Then Aunty Kim and Uncle Barrie...
Nanna Carol and Uncle Jonso....
And even our Paris friends, Isabella and Charlotte.
What a different place the world is these days - even the bears are getting in on the action!
