YOU MAY REMEMBER from a while back, a little post I wrote about the ever-adorable brother and sister team Tessa and LB from the blog Pacing the Panic Room. Well nowadays Tessa is already one and her daddio just recently put together this video chronicling the lil’ peanut’s growth in the womb. I find it endlessly cute when LB shows up in the photos. Big bros rule!

OY, I’VE GOT IT bad. As I round the quarter-century bend in my life, some primordial alarm clock within me is screaming. (Anyone else?) I nearly burst into tears at the sight of this awesome eco-friendly onsie (as modeled by little guy J from Marvelous Kiddo with his big bro in the background). It’s from the Scandinavian children’s clothier Vyssan Lull. Why is it that Scandinavians are so endlessly cool?

I‘M SMITTEN WITH THIS video of lil’ brothers lip syncing to Jerry Seinfeld’s “Halloween” stand-up. That little dude in the Hawaii shirt is so fidgety and hilarious! (I love when he “says” that his mother made him wear a winter coat over his cool costume…mine too!)

NOTHING MAKES ME feel more festive/delighted than seeing little children in freaky Halloween costumes! And that’s the very reason that I can’t stop looking at this slideshow on The Huffington Post. Ah, chicken alien baby, you are so cute. Happy almost Halloween!

MON DIEU! NEW DEVELOPMENTS on the cute French children front: this papa eats his petite fille’s flamby and some adorable mayhem ensues. There aren’t any subtitles, but I think even the French-challenged will be able to appreciate this one. (She keeps asking “elle est où?” meaning “where is it?”)

HOLY ADORABLENESS, these kids are cute. According to a New Yorker article that I read earlier this year, kids who had trouble resisting the marshmallow in an identical test to this one that took place decades ago grew up to be much more impulsive (and far less successful by society’s standards) than those who held their ground. Interesting, right? And I almost died when that little guy shoved both marshmallows in his mouth at the end there.

OUR FAVORITE PETITE FRENCHIE, Capucine, turned 5 last week and her mama made this tribute video for her. Isn’t it adorable? And I love that she chose the music from Amelie to go along. Bon Anniversaire Capucine! Also: Did you see her brother dressed as a clown in the first photo? How silly.

NOTHING MAKES ME WANT TO return to childhood more (well, maybe except for The Red Balloon) than this puppet show scene from Truffaut’s 1959 film, The 400 Blows. (Clearly, I’m speaking of returning to my non-existent, retro French childhood. Sigh.)

HAS ANYONE ELSE NOTICED that my baby sister-picking is turning more into just plain old baby-picking? Uh-oh. I guess hormones are running high. I think I’ll blame this one on my thyroid. But seriously, how cute is this baby!? And that hat!

THANK GOODNESS CAPUCINE NEVER STOPS being cute. She’s at the storytelling again (I posted her original animal tale back in November 2008), and I can see her recounting skills have advanced–so much dialogue in this one! She’s a budding writer for sure. And she’s got some interesting near-yoga moves there in the middle. To quote Madmoiselle Capucine, herself, “Wow!” ( 1:35)
Update: as of 5/09 this video is no longer private. Woo hoo!

ON THE BEACH, ON VACATION, WITH T.
First time here? Here's the idea: The Sister Project is a network of blogs about the many facets of the word sister, and the concept of sisterhood. A sisterhood of sister blogs, you could say. Whatever sister means to you, from identical twin to sister-in-law (or in friendship or in feminism), we’ll make room to listen in about it or express it on TSP. Like the slogan up top on our homepage says, “Don’t you have something to say to your sister?” We've got galleries of art and literature by and about sisters, and a Sisterpedia of sisterly trivia...but now we're getting ahead of ourselves. The quick study: Learn more about TSP, and how to find your way around. And oh—a giant, sisterly welcome.
