The kids first Loisvethe experience
After waking up at 6:30 am yesterday, the kids started acting very tired after lunch and we promptly put them to bed, hoping for a good two hours (we can always hope!). Etienne decided to take a nap too because he had only gotten 4 hours of sleep the night before. I had caught up some emails and just settled into Proust when, an hour later, I heard Gab come out of his room and Louise's cries of "Mommy".
We needed an activity, and fast, so we headed over to Loisvethe and enjoyed afternoon coffee, juice and cookies before the tea time rush came in and then went and played at the park across the street. Aimee's cookies were finger licking good, as you can see on the pic.
After that, I decided to drive to the north of Paris to the Marché St. Pierre to get some fabric for the curtains, but after an hour in traffic and Louise started to get restless, I decided to go home, that will be for another outing.
Oh, I STILL haven't made it out to Aimée's café! I've got to try to go this week... But heading home to the west of Paris has made it hard for me, so Saturday may end up being the best time to try to go. I'm so looking forward to trying her goodies and seeing her adorable salon de thé in person! Looks like Louise and Gab had a good time.

We'll be in Paris next month and OisiveTh is top of my list (especially since our hotel's in the 13th). Looks as if it's a perfect place for you to bring your kids and if there's a park across the street, so much the better. Maybe I'll spot you there!
