Man did I have a blast this yuntiff. Mommy took me to shoowl last night and today so I could be by all the dancing. I had a total blast! Tot tty took me most of the times, so I got to be where all the action was - not by the boring women! Then when he got a tow rah, he had to give me to Mommy - I was so unhappy! But Mommy tried to keep me happy - I found a lollypop and wanted to eat it and she let me! I'm sure though that the fact that I said lolly for the first time had a little to do with her kindness. I say it so cute, the way I roll my tongue in my mouth is to fress!

I've been altogether adorable these past few days. At one meal, I did something that Mommy didn't approve of - I forget exactly what it was - and Mommy looked at me from accross the table and said "could you explain that to me?!" So I answered "no". But I said so adorably I can't even tell you. I said it really clearly and in a big girl voice. They all totally cracked up!

I think I'll keep this one short - it's getting late. G'night!

I've been bad. I know. I haven't written in a loooong time. I'll try to make up for it now. So it's cholamowaid now and so far yontif has been very nice. The first days we had Totty's father and brother here for two meals. Yesterday we went to Ely Blai and Hastowlant and a little on the boardwalk and then we went to Mommy's mother for supper.

But that's all boring stuff. Let me tell you some cute stuff now. And not just about me but about BB1 and BB2 too!

First a story about BB1. On the second day of yontif, he and BB2 went to play by BB1's friend Yussee, who was by his grandfather for yontif. So Mommy told them they have to be back at 5:30 and if they're even a minute late they'll find her dead on the floor. So then 5:28 she heard them walk in the door and a little later she went down and saw BB1 and 2 in the sooqah with a bunch of friends. Then BB1 came and explained to Mommy that he was thinking of a way that if she comes down, she shouldn't be nervous, so he thought to go in the sooqah with all the kids and open the shade of the front window, so that right away when Mommy come's down, she'll see him. He said he had some trouble opening the shade, so he called in his friend's sister, who's 10 and tall, to help him with it. Mommy was really proud of him for such good thinking. She thinks he's a really sweet kid and she feels lucky to have him.

Now a cute story about BB2. Today, Mommy told the boys that they have to clean their rooms, so they were doing it, and then BB2 comes to Mommy all upset and says "You're not a king and I'm not your badiners, so why do you have to tell me every day what to do?" She wanted to fress him up! Then BB1 told him "because she brought us into this world!" so BB2 said, "no she didn't, ha shaim did!"

Ok, but enough about them. Now about me! I do so many new cute things it's amazing! I take a siddur or book or anything, and I look into it and shake like I'm praying. I also sometimes say a brocha before I eat. I mumble a few words and then put the food into my mouth. Also, the other day I got a hold of a few cards, and tried to say "one, two, three - spit!" like I see the rest of my family doing all the time. I also know how to count like "one, two, three - go!" But I say "too, tee, taw - oh!" something like that. Today for the first time I said the word "ball" but I pronounced it without the ll, just like "ba" or "buh" I was holding it when I said it, that's how Mommy understood what I meant. Also, yesterday when we went to Bobby's house, My family let me walk ahead to see if knew where to go into, and I did! Then I led them to Bobby's front door! Even though it was confusing because it didn't look the same as always because of the sooqas, I was still able to find it right away without any trouble! I'm one smart little girl!

So I guess that's all I can think of for now. TTYL!

R"H is over so I can write a little now. First of all, a very important update. I got my fourth tooth! I'm so excited to finally look normal! It's coming out pretty quickly too. Just yesterday or two days ago it broke through my gums, and now it's well on it's way to being a full grown tooth!

So R"H was pretty nice. I went to hear the showphar both days. Totty took me in with him so I got to be real close to the action. I enjoyed it. Also, Mommy managed to squeeze in two of "our walks". One on the first night of Y"T and one on the second day, after blowing. It was nice to still be able to go walking even though it's already October. Mommy's trying her best to take advantage of the nice weater.

Oh, I don't know if I already mentioned this, but I just remembered, I looove peanut butter. It's my latest thing. Whenever Mommy opens the fridge, I run to grab out the pb. I used to grab butter or margaring sticks, but now I've changed to pb. Mommy gives it to me on bread and I break of little pieces and eat it.

Another thing I don't remember if I mentioned or not is that I can already say both of my brother's names! And I say it really cute! Anyway, I'm really tired, so I'll cut it short today. Good night!

Oooh, I've been bad! It's been almost a month now! And I have so much to update you on! First and most important, I got another tooth. The top front left. I got it probably like two or three weeks ago, and it's so big already, but it looks so funny because it's there all by itself, without my other front tooth nexto it yet!

I also started saying lot of new words. I can say BB2's name pretty well for a few weeks already. And just recently I started saying BB1's name which is much harder and I say it really funny. I leave out the first letter and then I mix around the next two consonants after that. But BB1 is happy. As long as I say his name, he doesn't care how I say it. He was so sad that his was the only name I couldn't say yet. I can also say my uncle's name (Tati's brother). I say it really cute and quick. Oh, and the other day, when Mommy was feeding me bread with peanut butter (my new favorite food - that and chocolate leben) and I finished the whole slice, I said 'huch?" meaning "nuch?" because I wanted s'more!!! Mommy went crazy for that one!

So that's all I can remember for now. Well, the only specific thing I can remember. But in general, you should know that I've changed a lot in the past month or so. Mommy calls me 'feisty' or 'frisky' because I'm not a little lemeleh like I used to be. I speak up for myself now! And boy am I driving her crazy!! Hehe. :)

BTW, Tati went to San Fran this morning to a cellular convention. It's the first time he's gone away since he and Mommy got married. Mommy kinda misses him and she's nervous waiting for his call to let her know that he arrived safely. He should be calling any minute now.

Today was another fun day. We went bowling with my aunts C and C.S. and Babi L. Here is the order of who got the highest scores:

1. BB1 - winner!
2. BB2
3. Mommy
4. C.S.
5. C

Then we went to their house to play and eat supper. But when Mommy was eating I was in a pretty bad mood. I think I was tired. So I was kvetching and didn't let Mommy eat. So Mommy put me in a stroller and wheeled me around in the house and that kept me happy. Then Zeydhee came home so I got to see him. All in all it was a nice day, but tiring, so I'm glad to be in my bed!

Today was another awesome day. But wait! Before I start with that I have to tell you - I got another tooth!! Actually, I can't believe it, but I got it a couple of days ago. I forgot to mention it. Sorry :(. So it's my other middle tooth on the bottom and it's adorable.

Ok, so now I can tell you about today. Mommy woke up late - like 10:00 - so we got off to a late start, but we definitely made up for it! We went to the beach! BB1&2 were so excited. Mommy was actually a little nervous to take me because I have a runny nose and I'm coughing a little, but she took me anyway. So we got there at like 12:00 and right away Mommy took me to the edge of the water and the waves came up on our feet. Mommy bought me this little pink life vest, so I was wearing it and I kinda liked it. But of course, Mommy being the way she is, that wasn't enough, she wanted to hold my hands too - just to be safe. So in the beginning, I gave into her, but then I had enough and I refused to hold her hand. So I got knocked down a couple of times by the waves, and the water went in my eyes and stuff, and yeah, I cried just a drop, but then I still refused to hold Mommy's hand. So she called me feisty or frisky, I forget which. She's always calling me one or the other, so I don't remember which one she called me then.

In the meantime, the boys were also having a blast. They had brought some of their toys - a jeep and jet ski to play with and they were having lots of fun with that. That is - until the water swept away one of the people that came with it. But they got over it pretty quickly. BB1 was having a blast in the water. He went in pretty deep and was riding the waves. Mommy was so scared because he would lay down into the wave and let it wash him up on shore and his head would go under and she would panic until she saw his head come up. But he made it just fine. BB2 is a little more scared, even though he had his neon green and blue floating bathing suit, he was scared to go in too deep, so a few time, Mommy took him in deeper while BB1 watched me a little further in on the beach (not too close to the water). So while he put sand in my hair, Mommy held BB2 in the water and went with him in the big waves. At one point a really big wave came and knocked them so hard. BB2 got all wet and was kind of happy and upset. I don't know if he liked it or not, and I don't think he really knew either.

Then I had enough of the water, so I went further away from the water to play with the sand. Mommy asked me if I want to leig keppy and go shuffy shein, so I laid my head down right there on the sand and my face got all sandy. How was I supposed to know she meant on a towel? So she tried to put me to sleep on a towel, but I wasn't in the mood of sleeping - even though it was way past my naptime. So I continued playing. Mommy took me back in the water a little, and then two kids who we know came to the beach too! T.A. and H.K. They had come with H.K.'s grandmother. My brothers were so excited to have someone they know to play with!

But then something interesting happened. H.K. was eating a snack and he was being pretty messy about it, so more of it ended up on the sand than in his mouth, so a bunch of birds came to eat up what he had dropped, and suddenly, I felt this weird feeling on the top of my head - like splat! So I put my hand there to feel what it was, and it was bird poop!! Mommy tried to wash it off in the water, but it was all kinda gross.

Then, everyone was starting to get very hungry. Mommy hadn't thought we would stay so long, so she hadn't brought along any food. Alas! It was time to go home. We went home, took quick showers and finally ate something. It was a great day!

I know I haven't updated in a while, but I've been pretty busy lately, so I didn't have a chance. Sorry 'bout that. Well anyway, I had a great shabbos. Mimeh S came for shabbos and we had a really nice time. Mommy's always so happy when she comes. Friday night we went for a walk. It was so nice to go for a walk with Mommy and Mimeh S. Then, Shabbos afternoon, instead of Totty taking me and the boys out like he does every shabbos, Mommy and Totty both went to sleep and Mimeh S watched us. Some of BB1's friends came over and Mimeh S.'s friend from camp - M came over with her little sister Y. They ate ice cream and played Hangman. Then they squirted me with their water guns, but I didn't mind.

Now on to today - what an awesome day! In the morning, I woke up and BB1 was actually there! So that was already a good start. (Lately he plays musical beds so I never know if I'm gonna wake up and find him there or not.) He played with me while I was in bed and that was really fun. I love when he plays with me. Then he took me out of bed and took me downstairs. While he was holding me and walking down the steps he gave me two kisses on my cheek. He's so sweet. I can tell he really loves me. Then he gave me a warm milk bottle that Mommy had prepared on the counter.

Then Mommy and Mimeh S took me walking with them on the boardwalk. What a great walk! There was a strong breeze so we weren't too hot and the sun wasn't beating down on us, but it wasn't cold either. Then we went to the beach! I got there and immediately loved the feeling of the sand on my feet. Mommy and Mimeh S took me to the edge of the water and we stood there and waited for each wave to come so the water would touch our feet. We kept going a little deeper and deeper 'til the waves were coming up to my belly! I loved it! I laughed and got excited at each wave. Then we went to sit on the beach. Mommy and S tried to set up a 'tent' for me to sleep in (a flat sheet attached at one side to the handle of my carriage, and slanted downward and anchored down at the other end by my baby bag.) but I was in no mood to sleep. Even though I had been tired when we got to the beach, and it was past my naptime, I was too excited about the beach to go to sleep. I felt kinda bad for Mommy because she had dreams of me being so adorable and sleeping comfortably on a towel on the beach, but I had other plans - and they involved playing with the sand, picking up two handfulls and putting them on the top of my head, then taking another two handfulls and putting them ontop of Mommy's head. I loved putting sand on Mommy. I put some wherever I could and she didn't even get upset at me! Then we came home and I took a bath - with Mimeh S! I was naked, but she wore a bathing suit. It was really fun. And then, of course, came naptime. I wasn't too happy about it, but I know from exprerience that when it's time to sleep, I shouldn't even bother putting up a fuss. There ain't no way my mother's gonna change her mind. So I just went to sleep. Truth is, I was really tired, and I fell asleep right away. Then, while I was asleep, Babi and Abba came to pick up S and take her home. They really wanted to see me, and Babi even came to take a peek at me while I slept, but I was tired and didn't wake up until after they left. So I finally woke up, ate, played. One of BB1's friends' came over - the one from the rebbishe mishpucheh who had his payos burned off because they were too long and his parents don't cut with a scissor! Then he went home and another one came - the one next door to the Italyaner who Mommy knows his father since she's a kid because she used to be best friends with his sister. And then - guess what. It was time for bed - AGAIN! Mommy gave me my Hello Kitty bag full of socks to keep me happy and now I'm off to dreamland. Good night!
