September
2006 - Yom Kippur
Here are some pictures of Itamar from the long "Yom Kippur" weekend at
the end of September. For more pictures see the sites of Amit, Maayan,
and Lotem

On Saturday there was a hike to the Timna
Mountains. Itamar enjoyed climbing the mountains and didn't fall or
slip
even once. After walking and climbing on the rocks and in the sand, it
was time to fill a little bottle with different colored sands. Itamar
really enjoyed this and filled Granny's and Saba Eitan's bottles too.
Then it was time for lunch, and we met Moran, Michal, Maayan and Lotem
at Yotvata. After lunch, we went to see the horse farm behind
Yotvata.



Sometimes boys' play can be a bit rough.
"O dear, Moran saw us, we'll have to stop, and listen to a lecture
about why
we shouldn't fight.."




We spent Yom Kippur at Coral World. There Daddy Aviv had to feed and
look after the animals, while the kids had a good time running around,
playing and swimming. Itamar and Maayan also helped Daddy Aviv. They
cleaned the turtles, and fed lettuce to them and to the fish. It was
lucky Itamar and Maayan were there - who else would have carried the
lettuce from place to place.




July
2006 - Itamar's
graduation from pre-kindergarten, with cousin Shaked.

Yom Kippur October 2005
It's now a tradition: This is third Yom Kippur we have spent at Coral
World, keeping Aviv company while he fed the fish, patrolled and
generally
made sure everything was running smoothly. The three M's, Moran, Michal
and Maayan joined us and we had a lovely relaxing time. Unfortunately,
Limor couldn't be with us as she was in hospital under observation.
During
Yom Kippur, in the absence of traffic, the streets are taken over by
cyclists.
Coral World was taken over by tricyclists. Itamar rode his most of the
day, whereas Maayan was more interested in the animals.
Picnic and sleeping on the beach in
Eilat - June 2005

April 2005 - Itamar's second bithday (see archives
of This Week's Picture) was celebrated in style - one
birthday
party at Coral World and the following day another at his
kindergarten.



At kindergarten: With aunt Yifat, granny Doreen, daddy, cousin Shaked,
mommy, savta Margalit
November 2004:
Friday 26 November was Aviv and Limor's anniversary, and the family
gave them a present of a weekend in a hotel in the Galilee and took
turns
looking after Itamar: Friday Vered and Aviv R and family came to help
us,
and on Saturday M&Ms joined us. So between the adults and the two
girls,
Itamar was well taken care of and pampered. Itamar was on his best
behaviour
and Doreen found novel ways of keeping him occuoied and happy. His
favourite
activity was taking all the food out of the pantry and stacking it in
the
lounge. His next best activity was playing with the Comfy keyboard at
the
computer. He loved banging the various keys and getting different
colours,
shapes and sounds. Maayan was fascinated with all this, and sat and
gazed
open-mourthed at the changing screen. Dani was looking after Maayan and
Lior wouldn't miss out, so we got this picture of all four of the
grandchildren.

Look! I can walk!!

I went on a trip up north for the weekend with
my Mommy and Daddy, and with Uncle Moran and Auntie Michal and cousin
Maayan.
On the way we dropped in to Granny and Saba Eitan's house in Hofit to
taste
the delicious fruit that they grow, especially the passion fruit and
tomatoes.


Then we went to get
alligators
near Hamat Gader,

but first a dip in the Hamat Gader hot springs with daddy.
Two of Itamar's favourites are eating avocado
salad
and hummus, and telling jokes with Savta Margalit.
