After 800 miles, turkey, pumpkin pie, Hollywood, Beverly Hills, Santa Monica, and a glimpse at the smoke of the Malibu wildfires, we are back on Jackson Street. Yair shook hands with Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse, met Spiderman (though he was deeply disappointed by the fact that his all-time favorite spoke English, not Hebrew like the real Spiderman), pocketed clothes and toys, swept leaves in the backyard, bravely endured endless hours on the road, and made new friends.
And since Spiderman remains popular, Yair got himself yet another present today: Spiderman panties. His first. Panties, that is. What an incentive! He spent his first two hours ever without diapers, going potty three times. An incredible success. The hard part came afterwards, when he insisted on going to sleep without a diaper, too. There was much crying, screaming, ranting, clamoring until he finally caved in. To be continued tomorrow... After school.

About the big adventures of a little boy, his baby brother, and his family far away from the place called home
About this Blog
In 2001, my love brought me to Israel, where I lived happily for many years and blogged away in German for my family back home.
Now that we moved to the US, where the best husband of all is attending business school, I decided to create yet another blog for our loved ones in Israel (and anyone else who enjoys reading it) -- to bridge the distance, reduce the longing, and keep our own memories alive. But since German is not a common language and my written Hebrew is poor enough, English will have to suffice for these posts across the ocean. Please bear with me.

"We" got a Spiderman umbrella for Chanukah last night. The Little One opened and closed it so many times that I'll be amazed if he doesn't break it before getting a chance to use it outside. :-)
