Back in Business!
Sunday, June 15th, 2008
Whoever has been following my blog surely realized that I stopped updating for 4 months. The post below was my last one, until I started up again in June. I backdated this entry so it should be a starting point for my new posts, after this long hiatus.
The reason I stopped blogging is that I am B"H pregnant and I was really barely managing to function as it is. Coincidentally, the last entry (below) was posted the day before I found out I was pregnant. The next 3 months were pretty hard on me, not leaving me any time or energy for anything.
So when I sort of got back to my senses, I was so overwhelmed by how much I missed! I have a lot of catching up to do, and will be backdating posts to keep them in the correct chronological order. Which is why I am entering this post in this spot, as a divider between old and new posts. :)

A Taste of Spring
Last month we had a three-day treat. January 7, 8 and 9 were unbelievably warm- almost 60°!
Of course, this was my chance to dress the boys up all matchy-matchy and enjoy this one-of-a-kind opportunity.
They kept their part of the deal, and I kept mine. ;)
Yum!
Best brothers, best friends...
Warm weather calls for rollerskates!
On the way to the park for our third day of sunshine!
The secret to babies' silky skin: a facial treatment several times a day.
Watching the excavators! I couldn't believe it when I saw the Poozils standing together so peacefully. I figured that a common fascination made them forget that they're not supposed to stand together so nicely...
But then Zusha came to his senses. :)
Fun, fun, fun!

Here we sit like birds in the wilderness, birds in the wilderness, birds in the wilderness, waiting for our food.
"OK, Mama, if we sit nicely for the photoshoot, do you promise to feed us after?"

Poor Old Potty
Due to an unfortunate mishap, our hard-working potty broke 2 weeks ago after a chair fell on it. We were all very sad. Unfortunately, I didn't get to take a picture to commemorate it before it was sent on it's next journey to the garbage truck.
I went to the store where I bought it, but they didn't have any left, and weren't planning to order more. :( And it's doesn't have a brand that I can look for anywhere else either.
So I ordered another type of potty instead.
I let Gedalya choose the color. We narrowed it down to yellow or pink, and pink won!
When we got it on Thursday, Zusha was just a tiny bit jealous of Gedalya's new potty and started running around with it. Gedalya was chasing him and crying. The problem was solved by letting Zusha (who has been using the real toilet for about a year now) be the first one to make in the potty. That appeased him a little.
Another day Zusha decided he wanted to use the potty instead of the toilet again. This time Gedalya was standing over him and saying, "Duta's dutie lellue!" (Zusha's potty is yellow!) I guess since Gedalya's final decision was between pink and yellow and he chose pink, he figured that the yellow one would be for Zusha!!

Mama is Here, with Feet and Shoulders
Gedalya was sitting on my bed and started to call me. Zusha told him, "Mama is here," pointing to where I was in the other room.
Gedalya answered, "No, Mama is NOT here!"
So Zusha tried to convince Gedalya, "Yes, Mama is here! With feet, and head, and fingers, and sheitel, and stomach, and back, and eyes, and nose, and shoulders, and neck... with all good things! Yes, Mama is here!"
:)

Tonight's Bedtime
As Zusha was falling asleep today, he heard a car backing up and beeping and said, "The clouds are saying, 'Zuuuushaaa, go to sleeeeeep.'"
Then he turned to his Baby Berala and said, "I'm sorry, it was by mistake." (I'm not sure what, though.)
After a little while he turned to me again and said, "Zusha is almost asleep."
So I answered, "If you wouldn't have talked now, you would be ALL asleep." :D
