Ema's 32nd Birthday



Alys' birthday was a busy day--erev shabbat and the day before Passover--so we didn't have much of a party. But Avi did get to hang out with the birthday girl (for a change!) and her parents, Nana Cheryl and Pop Pop Leonard.




Passover 2008

Avi's first Passover was lots of fun. He got to hang out with his cousin Daniel and wear matching PJs, go to his first Wylen family seder and meet all of his great-aunts, uncles and cousins, and he wore his first sweater vest ensemble and silk kippah. Good times. Below are some memorable moments from the holiday: hanging out with Saba Raba Joe, walking in Montclair with Daniel, smiling for Safta, looking like a little man in a sweater vest.

Crazy-Haired Baby

For a kid with a bald Abba, Avi has a full head of
crazy hair. Right after we wash it (as was the case
in this picture), his hair is sandy blonde and BIG--it goes in every possible direction with no clear style. Then, once it's dry, his hair is sleek and straight and darker brown (but still a little crazy, sticking up all over the place). They say that newborns lose the hair they are born with, but Avi hasn't lost a strand, and he's already 5 1/2 weeks old. In fact, his hair seems to be getting longer and longer! At this rate, he'll need a haircut in a few months!
