They kids had a choice of what filling they wanted for their hamentashen. The choices were apple sauce, grape jelly or chcolate chips. What do you think Levi and Mendel chose? yeah you guessed it...chocolate chips.Mendel had lots of fun with the hamentashen dough and chocolate chips. Somehow he got a bunch of flour on his face.Then they had a yummy lunch made by Rena's mommy Shoshie. The fresh hamentashen was for desert. We also took home a bunch for later. Levi and Mendel had so much fun playing with Rena and Tamema.Rivka also found many fun toys that she doesn't have at home.Here is a cute picture of Shoshie, Rivka snd Tamema.

Excitement Shabbos morning!!!!

This shabbos morning mommy and tatty woke up to find that all the kinderlach in the home slept in thier beds/cribs ALL NIGHT. The most exciting for mommy was that Rivka slept the entire night in her crib when she usually wakes up a few times a night to nurse. Levi is geting ready for Purim at school which also means its his birthday soon. Levi also played at his friend Mussia alot this week. After shabbos Tatty sat on the couch and read to the boys this week's parsha. Mendel fell asleep but ofcourse Levi didn't. This shabbos Levi and Mendel went to shul friday night with tatty. Tatty said that they were very good in shul and davened very nicely.

Snowy week

This week was filled with snow and a school bus that came late almost everyday. The school bus was atleast 20 minutes late every morning this week . Alternate sides were in effect during the week which drove mommy and tatty nuts shoveling the car out of the snow so that they could just move it to the other side of the street. On thursday after school we went to our neighbor Mussia Kirshenbaum and played with her toys and had alot of fun. We had a guest this past shabbos named Yehoshua. He was very nice to us and read us a book on the parsha. Then on shabbos our friend Shoshie Krayzmen came for lunch and we shared our sippy cups with her. On shabbos afternoon we went to our friend Mussia for a shabbos party and we played doctor with her new doctor kit. On sunday Mommy took us to the Brooklyn Childrens Museum and wed had lots of fun playing with the toys and cars. Levi got to make a very lovely crown that he wore all day.

Here is a picture of Rivka moving her highchair across the room.Today Levi and his class went to Kids n' Action an indoor kids playground. He came home telling Mommy and Tatty all about the ball pit that he went into. Also he said that he went onto a train.

A visit with our friends Mendel and Sholom

On sunday after our day at the museum, our friends Mendel and Sholom Gootblatt came over to play. We had a fun time with them. We played with blocks and drank soy milk together. We showed them how we can make a pretend car out of living room chairs.
Our doctor set was also fun to play with. Mendel and Levi were doctors and helped our dolly feel better. Sholom liked our dolly stroller.We can't wait till they come back again!!!

Sunday Funday

We had such a fun day. Mommy took us to a museum with a fire truck and other fun stuff to play with. Fire truck had firemen hats and firemen jackets. The fire truck had lots of buttons that made lots of fun noises. There was a doctor area. It had doctor coats to wear and medical stuff to use on the animals that were there in the play hospital.

Then we got to play with a fake seeing eye dog, so that we could see how it felt to follow a seeing eye dog.

Then there was an area with bugs (even real ones) and we pretended to be bugs and got to go into a life size ant hill. Rivka played with the stuffed pillow larva.

There was also a ship with lots of blocks to build with. Levi built a jail out of large pillow dominos and Mendel put a chess piece in the jail.

Rivka loved playing with the connect four.Then we came home for dinner and then had guests over to play. My friends Mendel and Sholom Gootblatt were so much fun. We played doctor with them and made a car out of living room chairs. Tomorrow mommy will post some pictures of it.

Our new kitchen set

Thank you Uncle Larry and Aunt Debbie for our new kitchen set for Chanuka. We play with it everyday. It has so much fun food to play with. Rivka also loves to play in the kitchen and many times I hear mommy calling and looking for Rivka and guess where she is ...yep...the kitchen set in our room. Below is a picture of Rivka making a yummy dish for the boys. Mommy says she can't wait till she is older and helping her in the big kitchen.
Here is Mendel and Rivka playing in the kitchen. Mendel is still learning to share it with her.Our kitchen has a sink, microwave, stove, oven and a fridge.

Its really cold outside!!!!

Its really coldside is an understatement. We have been staying indoors or running as fast as we can to our next destination. Every night Tatty comes home and tells mommy how cold it is outside while he is shivering and almost hugging the radiator. B"H mommy bought him gloves. Everyday mommy has to dress us really warm which means LOTS OF LAYERS. Mommy says that means to her LOTS OF LAUNDRY.

Here is a picture of us getting our coats on with tatty to go outside.
