Reuven

I havent posted much about anything lately as i've literally had no time! We've been so busy 'living summer' around here. We've even begun enjoying going to a beautiful swimming pool a few times a week, this has helped us cope with the long hot summer days.

I unfortuntaley don't have many photos of Reuven and all the smiling hes been doing, he is by far our most smiley baby!! he does nothing but giggle, goo goo and smile! He's growing super fast... and at 9 weeks i can now say that he's a solid all night sleeper and has been for over 3 weeks now, what a blessing those extra hours of sleep add to my day. Thank you Lord.

I will endevour to get a few more shots of him this week, and especially a few of him smiling his breath-taking smile!

here's a shot of our super strong baby... (he's been turning over since he was 3 weeks old, and has been lifting his head very high from about 4 weeks... so yes we have another super strong shalev in the family!)

Our Shalev is 3!

We are so thankful to God for the 3 beautiful years that He has given to Shalev.

He has made it through the 'terrific twos'.

Shalev had a wonderful party! colourful, fun, and happy! just the way it should be at a 3 year old party!! 9 little children came.. (plus 2 babies) and he had a blast!

The helicopter cake! Shalev just LOVES helicopters right now, so a fying cake was just the right thing! it didnt really fly, but the propella's went round!!

Happy birthday big guy!

Our Daddy...

I know everyone says that their daddy is the greatest... but really... this daddy is the greatest! hehe

Every Soccer loving daddy needs a kit to get him through the games... so the kids and I put together this little bundle for our special daddy.
Our precious Daddy needs quiet time too, so i designed a doorknob hanger just for him. I hope the boys will get the idea.

The boys put together (with a little help) these well needed bookmarks for daddy. He has so many books on the go... so these cool little markers will keep daddy on the right page!

We love you... Our special daddy!

Happy Daddy's Day!

Reuvens '0' birthday party!

our family of 5...

Reuven Nadav Salinger

Our third son, Reuven Nadav is here.

Reuven (the english form being, Reuben) means 'behold a son!', and Nadav means 'generous'.

We truly feel SO blessed for this beautiful and generous gift from God... another son.

Reuven was born on Wednesday the 12th of May, weighing 3.4kgs. The C-section was in the end an amazingly joyful experience and we are just SO thankful to the Lord for the peace and comfort He gave.

We are all now home, and are so enjoying being a family of 5.

Though a little more sleep would be appreciated by all.

Cuddles!!
