On a hike in honor of Reut's Dad...

Noam and Reut stop for a snapshot
Update: Noam is our little woman...still bossing us around (I guess it is more than just a phase). We have our ups & downs with her now, either she is the sweetest girl any one can imagine, or she is a complete terror (no gray area). We prefer the first one :-) She is still struggling with sharing Mom with Shahar...and for the most part she takes out these frustrations on me. But with that said, she is crazy about her little sister. Takes care of her, makes sure she is eating, not getting in trouble, and boy can she make her laugh. Listening to the two of them in the backseat of the car is a joy. Noam talks to her, and sings to her, and they both start giggling like crazy...and it is just music to our ears.
Shahar is crawling around and looking for any opportunity to get into trouble. She never stops smiling that girl, and simply makes our job so easy. She is sleeping between 10-11 hours a night...tfu tfu tfu, loves to eat, says emma-ma, baba, points to the light when we ask her where it is, looks all around for ouzo when we call him, claps her hands, and when she sees food...well...nothing will stand in her way to get it. Especially with breastfeeding, she can get quite aggressive, pulling up my shirt when she wants to feed, or pulling up to a standing position just to reach my breasts and yanking on my shirt until i give in to her. Of course i do everytime, so its working for her. Monday we have "tipat halav" so i will write more about her progress soon...
stay tuned...
