Happy Friday! Since most of you are probably busy getting ready for Shabbos, I thought I would provide a few highlights from posts I found over the week which I enjoyed, and I hope you do, too.
Over at A Mother in Israel, Hannah asks about submission in marriage – how and when is it healthy?
This Good Life gives a great list of ways to improve your marriage (hint: there’s a reference to chocolate)
LadyMama has a post by Becky Brownstein about ways to keep it together in our hectic, hectic lives
Also, I started blogging at theJerusalemLife.com, and here is the first post. I’ll be posting three times a week, IY”H.
Oh, and don’t forget the impending apocalypse…
And now for the Pictures of the Week:

This baby is not even eight months old yet. I thought I would have more time. This is about when my other son starting standing, too (and he started walking at nine-and-a-half months). Gulp. Also, can you see his peyos in this pic? They are massively long! And it’s all natural!

It took me a little while to find the picture of his brother standing, but here we are (sorry for the red eyes):

Have a fantastic Shabbos!

Oh my gosh, how did he get so big? He’s so cute! And so active, wow. He must keep you on your toes. Enjoy him and the big one :-).
I know, right? They just shoot right up. It’s incredible. I enjoy them (and all their energy) very much, B”H. Thanks!
Wow, thanks for linking my post! I am so glad you enjoyed it!
Bivrachah and good Shabbos,
This Good Life
P.S. Chocolate is the super secret way to save a marriage ;)
Pleasure! It’s a great post.
Yum!! He really did get big! And I can’t get over how completely different your two boys are. Must be a great parenting challenge. Good luck!
Oh my! He got SO big SO fast!
He sure must be keeping you real busy – almost walking?! ahhh that’s amazing but time is moving way too fast!Woah!!
Love his “peyos” and the big eyes!
Penina – I know! He’s enormous! You should see Moshe, he’s so grown up.
Devorah – IMO, his peyos are the best part. He was born with them. It cracks me up!
They are SO CUTE!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks! We think so too, ;)
