Rivi's first visit to the dentist was a success.

Her teeth are super healthy, not one spot of 

decay (I would be surprised if there was) and 

perfectly spaced.

The really amazing part, however, is how much

fun Rivi had having her teeth checked and polished

(she assumed her teeth would be pink like her 

pink polished toenails).

And to top that, when Ori went to have his teeth

checked, the dentist walked into the room saying,

"that was the cutest girl.  She is only 3 years old.  It

was her first time at the dentist and when I asked her

 how was it she said 'excellent'."

Ori proudly stated, "that's my daughter."   The 

dentist assured us they had never had such a good

3 year old in that office.   

The master and the apprentice

Not only has Kyri learned to climb up 

onto the fireplace, but she's very interested in 

that bright red light shining from beneath the 

computer mouse.  I can't take my eyes off her

for a minute!

Kyri's hair is now long enough that it is almost 

necessary to put frilly hair accessories in it.

Rivi, Kyri and I made challah, two loaves - one 

sesame seed, one poppy seed

It was good!  So good, in fact, that Rivi, Ori and I 

finished the sesame seed challah in one sitting. 

Poor Kyri had already gone to bed.  She had some

today though.

Last night, way past bedtime, Rivi was showing 

us her skill with a dry erase board and marker.  

She drew a snowman, and a spoon and fork, 

even a woman, which according to Rivi needs 

beautiful arms and legs.  The most impressive 

markings were not pictures, however, but letters

-RIVI.  Incredible.  

Kyri is now drinking cow's milk.  She finds it

hilarious (as does Rivi) to spit it out of 

her mouth, showering the floors, the table and 

chairs, and me.
