Yom Haatzmaut Sameach!

For Israel Independence Day Veronica sent me home with many of my most recent masterpieces among which was this:




My very own TEUDAT ZEHUT!!

Moadim Lisimcha V'geula Shleima to all! May this year bring the redemption of our people and Israel!

(P.S. 123456789 is NOT my t.z. number!!)

Netanel Walking - Caught on Tape!

Finally - here is Netanel REALLY walking!



Sorry it's been so long since we have posted. After Ema took her midwifery exam, and after all the preperation for Pesach, Ema started a new Job (and Abba went to America)! So there hasn't been much time. We hope to keep the pictures coming now that things are starting to settle down!

More Pesach Fun

On Thursday, we went to visit Yoni and Kim and all the Eisenberg/Cohens at their hotel in Caesaria. On the way there I fell asleep (in my newly positioned front-facing car seat!):

In Caesaria, we visited the Hippodrom where there was a horse show. I had never seen horses before so I was really interested.

This is me with Yoni and Kim:

This is us hanging out on the lawn:

This is Me with Ema watching the horses:

Hope Everyone had a Chag Sameach!

Chol Hamoed at Herodyon

On the first day of Chol Hamoed Pesach we went to visit Herodyon - the summer palace of king herod which is near Tekoa. It is very close to us and is a pretty easy hike up to the top where you can see clear to Yerushalayim, Efrat and Midbar Yehuda.

This is a picture of me with my sunhat sitting in my stroller while Ema and Abba huffed and puffed up the hill:

This is our family at the top of the hill:

This is a picture of the view (including the 3 Heftziba buildings in our neighborhood!):

and this is Ema standing in from of the view of Har Choma in Yerushalayim:

A New Perspective

I used to hate going on Abba's shoulders...


(this is me at 6 weeks)

...but now I REALLY love it!

There are so many great things to see from up here!!

Frontways

This is me stitting frontways in my newly positioned front-facing car seat:

My First Haircut

On Monday (erev yom tov) Ema gave me my first haircut!

This is what I looked like before:

And this is what I looked like after:

Ema was not so successful cutting the back of my hair...it looks like a big upside-down "W" (if she can she'll try to snap a picture of it!). Thank G-d hair grows back!
