Father's day camera phone video

To show my abba just how manly I am on father's day, I jumped in the mud with my clothes on, dumped in my pants, and shoved food in my face. Can't get any manlier than that.

Mommy threw a great party for abba by organizing a secret softball game. Everyone had a great time, including me, as you can see.

The video was from abba's camera phone so sorry for the bad quality.

Video from May

Here is some older video, from when I still had some hair.

Caillou Giggles

Even though Mommy and Abba claim watching "Caillou" is like being stuck in Guantanamo Bay, they can't deny how cute I am laughing at one particular scene. Abba got three angles of the giggles.

"Make a Cute Face"

Luckily for Mommy and Abba, I obliged. Also in this video...songtime and mezuzahs.

Springtime fun

Catching Up

I've done a lot in the past 2 weeks. I'm now putting together 3 or 4 word sentences - even if they very rarely make sense - and having a lot of fun with talking. The weather is finally getting better here in Chicago, so now I can enjoy the new house's yard and the park across the street! We had a great time at Nana and Grandpa's for Pesach with Bubbie, Uncle Jonas (who I call "Unka Joe") and Aunt Mei (who I call "Ah Maman," or affectionately, "Aunt Monkey.") I can now identify some words on paper - especially my name - which is apparently "Eh-nan".

Enjoy the pictures. This is the best age!

Numehnumehnumeh = money

In this video: fun with helicopters, super duper fun time, playtime with Habie, and the word I use for money: menumenumenumena!

L'chaim.

Had a blast at Aunt meiMei and Uncle Josh's lchayim in Milwaukee this past weekend. Take a look.

Florida video

My visit to Fla with Yaya

We just got back from a great vacation visiting Zayde (I call him Yaya, by the way) and Bubbe Judy in Florida. We were all primed to have a great time until...I got sick as a dog on the way there. Yup, I was "that kid" on the plane that everyone hates. I had a fever the whole time and a cough that could wake the dead, but that didn't stop me from having a great time when we got there. We WENT TO THE ZOO! Since I love animals so much, I think Mommy and Abba were expecting me to go bananas when I saw all the live animals. I was excited, but not so much. Here are some great pictures of the trip, a video will follow soon.

Abba should know better than to fight with me for my nehneh...

Dancing the night away

I had a blast at Lea Ackerman's first birthday party. Awesome pizza, cool tunes, and hula hoops!

Like mother like son

I got a kitchen! Now mommy can teach me all of her awesome recipes. Uncle Jonas came in to play with me and showed me around the kitchen before heading to Green Bay with Aunt Mei Mei to see the Packers fall to the Giants.

The cutest whisper

Number none

Now that I have the whole alphabet down, my parents are trying to get me familiar with numbers. I think I get the difference, but I can only seem to say one number, "none." They also started getting me into thinking about a potty by making me watch this godawful video about some little kid's private parts...c'mon mommy and abba, be careful - Chris Hansen's coming to getcha.

Enjoy some pictures of me playing with Mommy in my cave, chillin with my buddy Talia, stealing some food from the fridge, and nappin' on Aunt Mei Mei.

Somethin' funny goin' on here...

I guess I'm just real happy about Aunt Meira and (soon to be) uncle Josh. That's really the only way I can explain how loopy I was when I heard they were coming by to see me.

Also, check me out and my mad body part identification skillz.

Man in the Mirror

I just love it when Abba sings like an idiot. Don't you?
