My last day of gan

Today was my last day of gan! Ima and Abba were very sad. I said goodbye to Shiran, Sima, Miriam, Alina, and Miriam Cook and they all gave me big kisses. My class gave me such a nice present because I was leaving- they all made me pictures! And the best present was a class picture so I can remember all of the kids in my class and my gananot- especially them, because I'll be seeing all my friends in a month when I graduate to the middle class! Bye everyone! See you in Toronto!

Learning

Now that I have my bottle, can we get some learning done around here?

Click here to see my Zaidy in the newspaper! I'm so proud of him for staying fit and playing golf! Way to go Zaidy!

Me and Ima (finally)

For those of you who asked, this is IMA!! I don't say her name often but that doesn't mean I don't love her the same as Abba (whose name I use for everything including ABBA!)And yes, this is how she spells Ima!

Yehai Yehai

I didn't want to say anything until it was official, but I joined THE CHEVRA last week. Our next album is coming out in September.

Cheerios and Milk!

It was a bold move on Ima's part but she finally let me try cheerios with milk! Since I haven't exactly got a grasp of the spoon concept yet, I enjoyed eating with my fingers.




Special thanks to Abba for these great pictures!

I'm officially Israeli!

Because it was my fifteen month birthday (and because Ima was having a craving), I was allowed to have Bamba AND Bissli!!! This is me in heaven...

Video: Adena! (pronounced: Adngunga)

This is a very fun video but is especially dedicated to my Aunt Adena, whose name I spontaneously said on the way home from Raanana and whose name I've been practicing ever since! I miss you Adngunga!

And by the way, I now eat yogurt with a spoon. And by spoon I mean holding a spoon in one hand and using my other hand to scoop up the yogurt and eat it!

The Heat

Please let it rain! Please let it rain! It's too hot!!!

Ok I know it doesn't rain in the summer here, but how much longer do I have to go on pretending by sitting in one inch of water on my porch?!!!

(thanks to Maytal for this idea)

Here are some new pictures of me! Enjoy!

Handy Man

Fascinating! I'm holding this thing Abba calls a tool and what am I supposed to do with it now?


Maybe Abba will show me...


Yup! I think I got the hang of it...

VIDEOS from my mesibat siyum!

These are some videos of me at my end of the year graduation party! click play to watch!

My Mesibat Siyum!

On friday I graduated from my baby class!

We sang and I didn't want to sit on Ima's lap so I went to sit on Miriam-the-cook's lap! She helped me use my clappers.

Then I dressed up as a watermelon and we danced in a play watermelon!

and the best part of all was Abba surprising me!!! He finished the army and came straight to see me!! I didn't let go of him the whole time! I love you Abba! I'm so happy you're home!

New talent

I learned how to do so many things in the last two weeks! I can put blocks in the right holes and I can make phonecalls! I called Abba a lot of times!

Silver

Ima was so nice when Abba was gone! She left the cabinet unlocked and I got to play with the silver! (this is before Ima took the silver away and locked the cabinet back up)

To the best Abba on the planet: WELCOME HOME!

In honour of tomorrow, WELCOME HOME ABBA! It's been a LOOOONG three weeks. We missed you more than anything and we're so happy you're home safe and sound. We love you so much!!!! Love, Gedalya and Ima
