Bad Mood, Good Mood
Bad Mood:
Well, my cleaning lady was supposed to come today. She didn't. I called her house, and her kid said that she went to Mexico-- for 2-3 months!
DO YOU KNOW WHAT IS IN 2-3 MONTHS?
What do I do now? How do I go about finding someone else? I went through a few of them, and she is really the best one. Ugh, with the new baby I can barely eke out time for dishes- forget anything bigger, like cleaning the bathroom or washing the floor!
While I'm in a rotten mood, I'll complain some more. I'm officially losing my mind with Zusha. He picked up some stupid things from cheider and now sticks out his tongue at everyone the WHOLE DAY. You ask him a question, he sticks out his tongue, and then answers in a disgustingly arrogant tone. He also spits and blows raspberries nonstop. I'm sick of it.
Good Mood:
BUT!
I got Adel to sleep at night! :D She goes to sleep at 9 or so and wakes up at 10-11! She wakes 3 times during that time, at about 1, then 5, and then 8. Until now, her bedtimes was... 1 AM! And after she fell asleep, I still had to get stuff ready for the next day, so don't even ask when I went to sleep.
And she is outgrowing clothes like there is no tomorrow, ka"h. I pulled out a whole stack of new clothes, and her wardrobe changed 90% within a few days!

That Was Funny!
Adel laughed yesterday! For the first time! At 2 1/2 months!
I was swinging her up and down, and whereas before she'd get scared, press her little lips in a long, thin line, turn red and grunt at me, this time she laughed!
It was so cute to hear her little giggle. I tried to get it on video. By then she was all laughed out, but did make a giggle or two for documentation. :)

Friday Fun
Yesterday it was snowing lightly. I picked Zusha up from cheider. Then we did a bit of Shabbos shopping and headed to the park. The boys had a great time, since we haven't gone to that park in a while. Usually we go to the one near the cheider, if the weather is nice.
Cute baby of the day:
Then, when it was almost Shabbos and I was finishing up preparations in the kitchen, Adel began to scream, "Hold me! Oh, please, somebody hold me NOW!!! Waaa!!"
So I did. I took her in the kitchen with me and parked her on the table for a second so I can finish the last minute things. Well, she was amused at her unusual location and new view, so she stopped crying. I was able to set everything up, light candles, and all. She even fell asleep there! :D
Those booties she has on are new. They are real leather and I got them on a huge sale at... $4!!

Funny Bunny Boys
Zusha:
When I was little, I drank numnums. When Gedalya will be big like me, he won't drink numnums. Then Adel will be big like me and won't drink numnums. And then we'll have more babies. A yingele baby. More and more kinderlach. If we'll have too many, they will be all over the house and no one will have room to run. So, we should only have... {counts to self} ...NINE kinderlach! OK?
Zusha has one friend in his class who stands up for him when mean kids bully him and call him names. This boy asked Zusha to sit next to him on the bus yesterday. Zusha answered that he couldn't, because he had to sit up front. (Where the bus monitor could see him, because the kids in the back pick on him.) So when Zusha told me this, I suggested that Zusha invite his friend to come sit next to him, in the front. So today he did! It's nice to hear that he has a friend.
Gedalya:
I'm still working on pronouns with the kids- particularly using female pronouns for Adel. They still refer to Adel as "er," which is "he" in Yiddish. I correct them to say, "zi," she. Today when I corrected Gedalya, he answered, "Adel is not Z, he is A!" :D
The kids were helping me put groceries away. I asked Gedalya to put the onions in the refrigerator. A couple of hours later, Gedalya comes running with an onion, "It's already cold, Mama! Here, take it."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The boys still refer to chocolate as "tiny," as in, I always used to tell them they can only have a tiny piece. So when I call Adel'eh a tiny baby, they run over to eat her. Zusha eats her first, while Gedalya stands whimpering in the background, that there will be none left for him. LOL. Zusha finishes eating Adel and tells Gedalya to wait till a new Tiny Adel grows. They wait 5 seconds, and then Gedalya attacks Adel to eat her, too. :)
Gedalya was watching some video clips of him and Zusha from a while ago. One of them stopped working in the middle, so Gedalya came to Zusha and asked, "Farvos Zusha redt nisht in kinoo?" (Why is Zusha not talking in the video?)
So Zusha answered, "You have to think." When Gedalya gave him a blank look, he pointed to Gedalya's head and added, "Think here."
Hahaha!
