Wow. The year is really coming to a close. I couldn't be happier to have spent the end of the year with Avi, Ben, and the boys. Making memories to the end of 2013, for sure.
This week really has been fun. Noam is at the perfect age (ok, I say that every trip) and Ronan is just a little smush. We've had tons of fun this week and had a bunch of firsts!
Monday, Avi and I took Noam ice skating. Avi and I grew up skating and thought Noam would like to try too...yeah...not so much. He screamed most of the time, oh well. I enjoyed being back on the ice - even dusted some of my skills off. Best part, was after we left the rink, Noam kept saying "I loved ice skating, it was so much fun!" At least he had a good memory from it!
Mr. Ronan had a ton of first this week too. He cut his first tooth (drool was very abundant) and he figured out how to sit up! It's a whole new world for him and we started bets on when he'll crawl. My bet, any day now.
Then, to continue on our active adventures, Ben and I took the kids (well, Noam really) to a trampoline zone. The last time I was anywhere near a trampoline with Ben, I got a "new" nose so of course, well, yeah we clearly haven't learned anything! We all jumped and jumped, safely, and it was so cute to see Noam having a BLAST!
Highlight of the week: Every part? is that a cop out? Seriously, though, just getting such special time with the littles is a gigantic highlight.
Favorite teaching moment: not having my work email pushing notifications to my phone. A true vacation.
Random-osity: Noam is obsessed with Kombucha. Every time we go into the market, he runs off and gets a few bottles. A little hippie!
Also!

Love that you had such a great time with the kids. Glad you did not grow a new nose this time. Such cute "memory" of the fun ice skating time. I remember a similar skating event with my girls when they were little. Such fun!
I'm so glad to hear you've had a respite and a great week! Blessings.
Wonderful to feel your happiness oozing out of every pore!! (my daughter had a friend when she was little...they used to cry until the moms would let them get together. They'd fight almost the whole time they "played" with each other. Then they'd talk about how much they love each other and when can they have another sleep over/play date. Used to confuse us mamas...I think that because kids let out all their honest emotions in real time, they tend to hang on to the good bits...idk...your story just brought me back a bit!)
Thank you my dear, Tamar! I love your new button and the new Blog Hop for next year/week. I love Roo in his birthday suit, almost. lol
So glad you are having a blast with family! Sounds wonderful except the new nose bit. That is the worst. Soak it all up, friend! Can't wait for your hop starting next week!
It's been an eventful year for sure - you have had some amazing adventures & things happen. So happy for you my friend!!! Love & hugs
Growing up ice skating was a big part of my life in the winter...so awesome to see your family bringing this to you little man too.
my kids also went ice skating last week. Simon hated it but the other two enjoyed. I wanted to take Zachary to a trampoline place but he chose chuck e cheese instead, lol!
Oh my goodness, what a glorious week you have had. Happy New Year, Tamar, I hope the new year is good to you, many blessings to you and your sweet family!!
Looks like you had a wonderful week! Looking forward to linking with your new linky party! A friend and I have been searching for one. Happy New Year!
