Theo - 5-8 weeks

Here comes another serie of pictures from our little stinker!
Theo is doing great. in the last 3 weeks, he definitly learned to look steadily, to smile, and to become even more cheeky and making tons of faces, which we love!.

Also he got his first cold but that didn't last long... just a couple days. And he got to see the queen's house (from the outside).

At 7 weeks, he weights 5kgs or 11lbs and is 59cm tall or 1'11".

Spectacular conjunction

When celestial mechanics plays it well, it becomes a pure pleasure for our eyes.
One such event happened recently on Dec 1st when the moon, Venus and Jupiter got positioned together in the evening sky within a few degrees of each other.
In fact, the moon even eclipsed Venus for 2 hours.

Unfortunately, the London weather didn't allow me to enjoy it on the D-day.

So I got a picture before the show on Nov 25th and another 2 days after the show on Dec 3rd as the moon had already distanced itself from the 2 planets by 26 degrees (the moon does a full 360 degrees in the sky in 28 days or 13 degrees per day).

Nationalities

Theo became french and american this week! Though he isn't allowed to be english yet, as Daddy hasn't spent the mandatory 5 years in UK as an ECC citizen.

Well all in all it was a very smooth process. But I'm glad it's done.
