Halloween

Sorry for the long pause between posts. I've loaded a bunch of halloween pictures into a picasa web album. Check out my first pumpkin!

Salma turns 2!

Salma turns two tomorrow. It's fantastic to see her growth and development. She seems to understand everything. She loves to help around the house. She seems to really care for Mani. And today she spent much of the day without diapers without accident.





We had a party on Saturday. Buby was in town from Toronto and made lots of great things to eat. Pascal bounced the kids on the sprinkler beach ball. Weather was great. It was fun all around.

Like mother like daughter

The more things change, the more they stay the same.














Of course, in Zahra's day they drank Pepsi, while our little Berkeley girl only drinks the finest organice fruit juice... and that straw better be compostable.

Ay bee see dee

Mani seems to really want to get up and run around but his body is still working on sitting up. He continues to be a smiley baby. And he definitely enjoys his rice cereal.













Salma has taken to singing "Ay bee see dee" at all opportunity. She seems to have learned it at the day care with Roxanna. Last weekend they had a party... complete with clowns, candy floss and live afro-peruvian music. Her latest feat was to trick Ameneh's boyfriend David into walking with her down to the toy store. Hopefully khale will tell us the story herself. It seems the Salma is engaging more with her environment, enjoying it and talking about it.

Passover 2007 in Toronto

We had a wonderful time in Toronto despite the cold. Was great for the kids to spend that time with Buby and Zaida. Salma had a great time with Nathan and he was very good to her.
