French Terms of Endearment

Do blondes really have more fun? It doesn't seem that way based on this picture of Sophie trying on a blonde princess wig we had bought for Christmas.

A Day at the Market: we went to the Market at Pornichet--the town bordering La Baule and easily within walking distance of Claire's parents--a few days ago to pick up some seafood for dinner. I really like it a lot. Here are some pictures.

French terms of endearment: the ones that we tend to use for Sophie are "ma pouce" (literally: "my flea", which seems to be pretty standard), "ma cherie" or "mon chou" (which is like saying "dear"), "ma princesse" (my princess, obviously), or "choupette" (I don't know what it means, but it sounds cute). I recently have been turned on to a new one I've been trying out on Maxime lately: "mon petit petouillard", which literally means "my little farter". Which is quite accurate.
