Wow, how did i forget to post this to the blog! - a couple of weeks ago, we took the kids to a 'Playhouse Disney' show. It was really for Millie's age, but we all got a kick out of seeing her get excited!
She really does think she has met Mickey Mouse, Pooh bear, Little Einsteins and Handy Manny. I heard her talking to her friends in car pool saying "I saw Handy Manny..and Mickey, and Minnie, and Goofy & Donald. But Daisy wasnt there - she was sick!"
She got such a kick out of seeing the whole arena pat with the Little Einsteins to help Rockets take off (if you havent seen little Einsteins this is kind of lost on you, but youre also very lucky so its ok!)








During the break, we did some cool light experiments with the camera..

I had such a 'great' parenting moment yesterday I just have to share.
I left home to pick up Elinoa and Yoav from school yesterday, but there were delays on the way due to road works. I got to their school about 10 minutes late & we were the last to leave the car park. I dropped their friends off home and we arrived home pretty late.
After moulding 4 sets of 7 candles into the chanukiot, lighting the candles, giving out presents & playing with them, I realised that it was almost time to leave for Elinoa's karate lesson but I hadnt made supper yet!
I threw some sausage rolls in the oven and cranked it up to 400. 20 minutes later it was time to leave and the rolls were only just ready. Thinking fast, I grabbed some brown paper sandwich bags and sachets of ketchup and VOILA! Supper in a bag!
I am still laughing about it now, how appalling am I? The kids must have thought I was a raving lunatic.
Here are some Chanukah pics of the kids...




(Millie's picture was taken when she came home from gan the day before Chanukah with her chanukiah, warpped in red cellophane, that she had made from crayons)

Ooops, am slacking again with the blogging thang...
Well, Grandma Dianne & Stuart came out for a Thanksgiving visit at the end of November. Unfortunately, they got food poisoning on the plane on the way here and were sick for most of their trip! We also had tickets for The Color Purple on Broadway, but it was cancelled due to a strike!
So, very few picture to post here..
We did have a lovely shabbat together & a very fun trip to Madame Tussauds & My Most Favorite Food in NYC (sadly, without grandma)
