One busy weekend that left me ready for a day off to recover! BUT so much fun.
Yiftach was the "rabbi" at Tifereth Israel this weekend as the regular was in Israel. So we went to services both Friday night and Saturday morning. Hadarya loves services. She loves the Hebrew. She loves the Torah. She loves being in the environment. It certainly helps that she flashes her cutie patootie smile at anyone and everyone too.
After services, we came home and spent a wonderful late afternoon shabbat with Doda Shlomit, Savta, and cousin Jonah. Eating a yummy lunch in which Hadarya tried Savta's carrot and chicken from the soup. They were a big hit! She loved them. Well, she loves any food and so far has not refused anything as evidenced by her lovely belly!
We then spent some time in the pool in which Hadarya loves to go under and "swim" on her belly. There are lots of photos at the flickr site.
On Sunday we were treated to a marvelous visit with Cousin Janis and Jim from Arizona. Hadarya dressed in her Phoenix Suns outfit from them with tennis shoes and looked quite the cheerleader! We went out for lunch, took a couple of nice walks, played, and got some new toys. Hadarya is now the owner of a delightful set of pots and pans that sing the ABC's and talk to you about what color pan is in the pot and which one is out. She completely loves this toy; especially the noise it makes when she bangs them together! She also has a "walker" that becomes a scooter and she is fascinated by the movement it does when she pushes on it. She is quite adept at walking with holding on to our hands and it's only going to be a short time when she walks with this.
What a fantastic time and great to see so much family!
