Saturday at Safta's house

Saturday involved beverages for Paul, very important considering he had filled his bed with barf in the wee hours of the morning. . .

He loved getting water from the bubbler and drinking it from his new sparkley cup.
He also enjoyed drinking milk from his new cow cup, Brisket.
He did not particularly like the chocolate lolly Bubbie Barbara gave to him. . .
. . .Paul is more of a savory than sweet boy, and he preferred a pickle.
Brunch after Safta and Daddy went to shul and Paul, Mommy, and cousins Jesse and Ali hung out at home. . .

Seder 2.1 - Passover at Safta's!

(Flashback: remember the seders last year?)
We celebrated the second Seder at Saft Sheila's house with more family and more friends!
Honorary Auntie Cindy ponders the advanced mathematics of the plagues. . .if the hand of G-d was 5 plagues, and the finger of G-d was bringing 10 plagues from Buffalo, how many plagues would arrive at the Dead Sea, allowing x=a/bc+-q?We've been friends for about 20 years.
Mommy and Daddy have celebrated 11 Passovers together.

Paul as Moses, the Baby in a Basket. . .

Can Bubbie Rose buy Asher's love?

Yes. Yes, she can.

Smarter than the average bear. . .


I don't want to work. . .

. . .I just want to bang on the can of Matzoh Farfel that I took off the pantry shelf all by myself and have been rolling all over the floor all day. . .

Thank you Amy and Warren!

Paul is really enjoying the magnets. . .
Hmm. . .the little Dr. Moreau ponders the possibilities. . .
Yes! A Duck-Pig! Muah-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!

Paul helps clean for Passover. . .

. . .by inspecting the pantry shelves.
Yup, it's a shelf. A little help getting out please?


Paul LOVES eating apples!

We've come such a long way since last September, when a toothless Paul gnawed desperately at an apple. . .

I can haz this apple? *NOM! Nom! Nom!
See all the big bites I've taken?
I eat you now, apple! Grrr-NOM! Nom! Nom!
Who knew apples were so much fun to eat?
*Paul does not endorse nor condone the use of "LOLZ" in place of standard English. His mother, however, haz luv 4 LOLZ, okthxbye.
