Three parents and two babies in one picture


Not only is it difficult to get two babies to look at the camera at the same time, it is also difficult to get two babies and three parents in one picture, unless of course, you have them pose.... which I did here. It worked out well. We are standing in the harbor of Honfleur, a small town on the normandy coast. We took a trip to the normandy coast one day and visited Honfleur and Deauville. It was a nice day and we sat out on the beach for a while too, in Deauville. Throughout the trip it was hard to get the two babies in sync... when one was sleeping the other was awake and the other way around. They would also wake each other up doing that. We had them sleep in one room just one night, the other nights they slept in two separate rooms and that worked a lot better. The feeding schedules were a bit off too, but by the time we went home they were sort of in sync... that's great, isn't it? Last year we went on vacation with Nadim and Julie too. Then we went to Port la Nouvelle in the south of France where Julie's family has an appartment. There were just four of us then (well, actually four and one peanut....). Now there were six and even though that may sound quite normal for people our age, it felt quite miraculous and it still amazes me.... (also it seriously effects how often you go out to eat :-)).
