This morning I took Keren to the park in Modiin and almost melted there.  It was seriously hot today.  Unbearable even in the shade.  Uh!

The kids came home and each brought a play date after coming home from their chugim.  Ben doesn’t play so well with the friend that he brought home and I even wondered why he wanted him to come.  When Talia came home with her friend things went a little easier until the boys and girls started fighting but for the most part it was better.  Talia and her friend spent hours making a boat out of random construction materials they found on their way here, ie, cardboard boxes, sticks, etc.  They worked really hard on it and did a nice job.  They are bringing it into school tomorrow.

I fed all of the kids pizza and delicious home-made garlic bread.  The had ice cream for dessert.  Ben’s friend left at 6 and Talia’s at 7:20!

Tomorrow if the weather stays the same we are heading to the beach after school.  I would have gone today but I didn’t want Keren to fall asleep in the car on the way home and then ruin her nap thereby ruining my rest time   In the end she had a great nap but the park was too hot.  Her cheeks kept getting all red and she kept drinking her water.  I wanted to pour it on her head at one point but also wanted  her to have enough to drink.

Funny Ben comment of the week:  Mommy, I feel bad for Keren b/c her cheeks and her belly are so fat!

Off to put the A/C on and bed.
