Mon dieu!

Things that we’ve learned from French strangers:

You must not burp the baby so vigorously; you’ll cause brain damage. For life.

His bottle isn’t warm enough and we should stop feeding him with it.

His head is too cold. Always. We must keep it covered even if he is so warm he’s getting a heat rash on his forehead.

His neck is cold.

His head is not being supported enough.

You must pay attention so that his head doesn’t touch the wall next to you. This also may cause brain damage for life.

He is the cutest baby ever. He is si mignon, si chou, si beau, adorable, petit, oohlala! Despite all our attempts to kill him through hypothermia, beatings, and lack of head support, we must be doing something right, because all of Paris was completely taken with him.

Can you blame them?

Don't forget his feet! Do you have wool socks (nothing synthetic!) for his feet? And mittens! I don't suppose you're ready for the lecture on mittens.

I love the photo, even more the the previous Eiffel Tower photo. Frame it! Hang it over the changing table!
