How To Villlhelllm: How do You even Spell It?

Tiny Tales from Alyce’s Weekly Wonders

Things have gotten super interesting now that I’m on the move—yup, you heard that right, I’m *really* on the move now, and the world is mine to discover!

First, let me tell you about my new freedom! My mom and dad put up a gate (yay!) so now I have the entire kitchen and living room area all to myself. Do you know what that means? It means I get to explore every corner, and trust me, I am exploring! Once you’re standing on your feet like me, it’s amazing what you can see and discover. I can stand up almost without any help now, and guess what? I can even stand by the coffee table and look at my books!

I really love books, but right now, the soft-page kind are a bit too soft for me. I may have ripped a couple of my favorite pages (oops!), but no worries—my nanny and mom fixed them up so nicely, and now I can enjoy them again! 😇

Now, about Boujee and Dapper—remember how they’ve always been by my side, making sure I’m safe and sound? Well, they still are! They’re always keeping an eye on me, but something funny has been happening. You see, when I drop one of my toys (which happens a lot because I’m *always* on the move), they *run away fast*. I guess they’re a little scared when things fall to the ground, but don’t worry—I’ll win them over soon, and then we can play together!

Oh, and their toys? Well, I think their toys are super interesting, but Mom and Dad keep telling me that those are for the dogs, and that I have my own toys. Fine, I guess—I have so many of my own things to explore and discover!

I really wanted to share how much fun it is to be on the move. I can’t keep still for long, and I’m loving every second of it. The world is full of new things, and I’m ready for every single adventure. I’m a *real* adventurer now!


Celebrating Our 100th Newsletter: A Journey of Gratitude and Connection

We’ve reached an exciting milestone – our 100th newsletter! It feels like just yesterday that we sent out our very first email, filled with hope and excitement, not knowing what the future would hold. But here we are, with 100 newsletters behind us, and we couldn’t have done it without YOU – our wonderful readers.

When we first started, the goal was simple: to share stories, insights, and updates with you, our community. What we didn’t expect was how much *you* would become a part of the story. The conversations we’ve had, the texts and calls we’ve received from many of you after reading a newsletter, have been a highlight of this journey. Your feedback, your reflections, and your questions have shaped this newsletter in ways we never imagined.

We are so grateful to every single one of you who opens our emails every week. The fact that you not only read, but also engage with us – whether it’s a simple “Loved this week’s edition!” or a deep dive into a thought-provoking topic we covered – makes all the effort worthwhile. It’s not just about delivering content; it’s about starting a conversation, creating a connection, and knowing that what we’re sharing resonates with you.

As we reflect on the past 100 newsletters, we can’t help but feel an overwhelming sense of gratitude. Thank you for being here, for being part of this journey. Your continued support and engagement have fueled us week after week, and for that, we are truly thankful.

Here’s to many more newsletters, more stories, and of course, more conversations. We can’t wait to continue growing this community with you all!


With heartfelt thanks,

Damian, Katerina, Alyce, Boujee & Dapper ❤️


Woof Woof! 🐾

Mon dieu! *C’est incroyable!* We have a new development in the house, and we need to talk about it… **Alyce is on the move!** *Oui, oui!* You read that right. She can walk now, people. Walk! The little one is on two feet, moving like she’s on a mission. All we can say is: **tous aux abris!** (everyone to the shelters!) You’ve never seen chaos until you see a tiny human zooming around like she’s in a race and we are the unintentional obstacles.

Look, we have a lot of love for Alyce. She’s *adorable* and we even get to snuggle her sometimes, but no one told us that these little humans can move so fast when they start using their feet! One minute she’s there, and the next, *poof*, she’s gone. You’re just trying to enjoy a peaceful nap, and bam—*she’s there!* And let’s not even talk about the toys. Oh mon dieu, Alyce is dropping her toys on the floor, and we are not sure how to handle it. You know, the ones she doesn’t need anymore but that we *definitely* do. It’s like she’s taunting us. Is it a game? We don’t know, but *c’est un peu effrayant* (it’s a little scary).

But don’t worry, people! Dapper is still in love with her, and he’s not letting this walking business stop him. No, no, no! He’s taking his job as Alyce’s bodyguard to new heights. When she goes to bed, guess who’s right there by her side? *Mon ami*, it’s Dapper. He lounges beside her in his own bed, making sure she is safe and sound. He’s *the* protector, and you should see him—he’s the ultimate gentleman, making sure she’s not in any danger… except maybe the danger of dropping more toys.

But let’s shift gears because we’ve got another *monumental* topic to discuss: **the snow**. *Ah, la neige!* It’s *magique*. Another snowfall arrived, and we were *wild* with joy. Dad came through with the ultimate paw protection: booties for our little paws! And guess what? Boujee, the self-proclaimed “I hate anything on my feet” diva, has turned into a snow-loving enthusiast. *C’est incroyable*! Who would have thought? Boujee, frolicking in the snow like a happy puppy, happily bounding through the fluffy white stuff like it’s the best thing that’s ever happened to her. *Bien sûr*, we are both living our best lives. Rolling in the snow? Yes, please.

Dapper’s not exactly doing *snow ballet*, but he’s got his own style: trotting around, keeping an eye on Alyce (and her toys) while also making sure the snow doesn’t melt before we can roll in it. It’s been nothing short of *joyeux* (joyous) and *hilarious*. We are officially snow dogs now. *Vive la neige!*
