Day 194


Here is the serious stuff - Pokemon books. Looks like it will be a new obsession. She asked for 3 Pokemon books for her birthday. Most of them are not stories but guides and handbooks.

Day 188

In the summer we usually go to the library once a week. Lila is participating in the summer reading program and reads about 6-7 books a week. She loves history and adventures. Ella reads much less and only non fiction books - she loves to read about big cats and nature in general.

Day 174

Long day today - last tumbling lesson, summer school and then closing. We were not able to get the keys at the closing, Ofir had to go and get them from Deborah later after the wired transaction was completed. On the way home we stopped at Menards to check the paint for the basement , carpet tiles and tons of other things that Ofir wanted to check. Before I lost my patience and took the kids home, the girls were exploring the greeting cards stand.

Grocery shopping. Finally I feel comfortable with Eli in the shopping cart. That makes grocery shopping much easier. See the green bag in the cart? We are trying now to use shopping bags we bring from home.
