Pictures!

I haven't taken the pictures off the camera in so long! Plus, I have Lev's school pics to post, so this is going to be a long one...

This is a shot from a few weeks ago when we went to the park with Shelly after school.

Lev spends so much time with Shelly that he now chooses pink ice cream and candy when he has a color choice

Estie cannot wait until she's big enough to climb the ladders on her own. If you based your knowledge of our family on Estie, you'd think she lived with two Daddies (she's gone back to refusing to call me Mommy) and a Bubbie (that's Lev). It's pretty funny.

Lev finally got the Crocs he's been begging for. 'Mommy, I want Cwocs like Talia and Clawa.'

I got him a Mickey to put in his Crocks. The love for that Mouse must be in his blood, plus staying for Mickey Mouse Club is a special treat at Bubbie's.

Here are Daddy, Lev and Estie at Issac's hair cutting.

Lev helped make this challah. He's great at the over, under and even the over two, under one.

Doesn't Estie look so grown up in this picture. By the way- this couch was one of the best purchases ever (thanks Grandpa Paul). I wish we had a room full of furniture their size- they'd love it.

The kids all went to the park by Bubbie's after school yesterday. Here they are in the 'car' going shopping for diapers and juice.

Lev and Yehuda gave Estie a ride. This thing amazes me. Kids can ride it for hours. Get an adult on there and they're ready to vomit after three minutes.

Lev and Yehudah being silly.

Daddy actually took a picture of Mommy.

Here come the school pictures. Bubbie hires student photographers to take pictures of the kids. This year she had the woman come twice (once on a regular day and once for the Purim party)

Do you recognize those blocks Aunt Ruth? Lev brings a lot of things to gan for show and tell and they end up staying there. Don't worry, we keep tabs on what's been confiscated for group learning purposes.

Yehudah and Lev

His band-aid proves my mom's theory: Kids always get injuries on their faces right before picures. This was right after he jumped off of his bed and ended up with a deep gash that needed to be glued closed and covered for 5 days. At least we had super cool Thomas band-aids.

My musical little man

Bubbie pulled his pants up to reveal his long underwear on purpose. She's a big fan of his red and white stripes

Saying the 'Shema'

Purim! Lev was dressed as a penguin and Yehudah was dressed as Bob the Builder. I got worried that Lev would be jealous of Yehudah's costume and sent him with a Bob costume as back-up, but he stuck with his penguin

This pose reminds me of my college roommate LaRae. I think Shalom's the only person who reads this blog who will get that reference.

He didn't ge the penguin feet on for some reason, but it's still a cute picture

Here's the whole crew.
