Jet Lag

What were you doing at midnight last night? I should have been sleeping, but instead I was eating a midnight snack with the grown ups. Jet lag? I think so.

We arrived in Israel safely on Saturday afternoon. The flight went well, except that Aiyana only slept for about three hours (it was an overnight flight) which means Mommy and Daddy slept for even less time. This would have been fine if Aiyana and I slept once we got here, but we've been going to bed between midnight and 3am, and waking up a mere six hours later. 

And since we've been making up for lost nighttime sleep by taking three hour naps during the day, it's been pretty difficult to make plans because one of us is always sleeping.

That being said, we're still having a great time. There are twelve of us staying at the house and endless visitors coming in and out. Hopefully we'll get pictures of everyone soon.

Besides, I'm pretty excited to help Becky with the everyday things, like walking Jerry and grocery shopping. Becky and Hillel picked out a princess/clown dress for me to wear for Purim this week, but I'm pretty happy to wear my new dress even when running errands.

Aiyana has been spending lots of time outside chasing stray cats.

And when we're not doing that, we're jumping on the backyard trampoline or swinging at the local playground.

Mommy's hoping our naps will coordinate enough today that we'll have a few hours where we can venture more than a few blocks from home. The beach is a short walk, so at the very least, maybe we'll have time to take a stroll over there.

Love and jet lagged little girls,
