first weeks of school

Moshe's ER visit

Our friend Riki offered to take our 3 big boys on a hike to a nearby spring as a last adventure before school started. They've been pretty cooped up as I was too big & uncomfortable to go anywhere, and of course now I'm too exhausted and busy.


So off they went, and reportedly had a great time. Until, on the way home, Moshe tripped and fell, cutting his forehead on the stones on the path. It wasn't big, but it was deep, and we thought it probably needed to be stitched.

So off they went, Chaim & Moshe. Here are some pictures of the hospital visit.

All Done!

Chanah's First Bath

Chanah's First Shabbat

It's tradition to name a baby girl during the Shabbat Torah Service at the synagogue, the first Shabbat after she is born. So, although we had already named her at home, we took her and she got to go up with her Abba for an Aliyah. It was quite exciting.

Here she is in her beautiful dress.

Then we had our favorite family brunch to celebrate-bagels & cream cheese, lox and hard boiled eggs. And orange juice, of course.

All sitting outside on a lovely sunny day.

Life is good!
