Hey, congrats to everyone assimilated by new little-people!
:)
any lawyers in our midst?
I'm trying to figure out whether we have a case with the custody situation...
it's a sticky one, international and all.
How his mother ended up with sole custody is complicated. It was basically done without my husband's legal consent - but he didn't fight it. They had lived in Israel during their marriage and his son was born in Israel, so it should have been illegal for her to leave the country with him.
Up until now, we've believed that the child's interest was best served by living with his mother, but he is now in boarding school, so no longer living with his mother. Better schooling options are available in our area meaning he could live with us or at least come home more often than once a month. Problem is, of course, that his mom doesn't want him across an ocean.
blech.
Made with real fleas?
Yeah, they had to put *something* in now that they can't use thimerosal.
Yaakov went to the the US for a week. Since he left on Thursday morning: our X-box died. My laptop is overheating (while I'm on a major project on a tight deadline and my desktop is not capable of handling moviemaker.) The desktop is acting up (but hopefully not too badly) and Ephraim has a fever.
Also, I've cleaned pee off the floor 5 times. (2 K, 1 E, and 2 the dog.)
And dog vomit once.
I think there should be laws against fathers traveling for business.

This is the sort of scenario I envisioned when they asked me if I wanted to go to Korea for 3 weeks this summer.
and probably no baakfiets either?
such a nihola is a cool thang. or a long john...

Our twins have recently discovered that they have control over wearing their diapers, and they like to exercise that control at every opportunity.
For a couple of weekends (when they're up before us), we'd find them bare-ass naked. Twice we were welcomed with a poo-disaster.
We actually resorted to using duct tape on their diapers, until we realized that putting them in onesies again worked just as well.
It's only a matter of time now until they figure their way out of those.

Our dog that liked to pee on the floor died suddenly a few weeks ago. It was sad, but only for a very brief moment! We're now down to the dog that doesn't pee, but gets the runs every once in a while.
Sometimes I wish I could travel for business. :)
If they're so smart then perhaps that's a skill they ought to pick up.
It is not uncommon for twins to learn how to change each other's
diapers.

I could only dream.
so... did you turn the door-knob of the important doors already vertical? ;-) or don't they reach the horizontal ones yet?
In America, door knobs are round. They're a bit harder to open than European doors. I remember having trouble with door knobs, which means I was still having trouble with some door knobs at age 3.
The Israeli ones can't be turned, so my kids can open doors. When my stepson was here, whenever he left the room, he locked the door to his room (leaving the key in the lock so we could get back in easily) to keep the kids out. The one time he forgot, the floor got a dusting to an inch of foot powder...
I've joked about turning the doorknob around so the lock is on the inside if they figure their way past that.
IG: it's the long, hook-shaped, flat handle ones they have in europe, like some car doors have, except these turn, not pull. Normally they're positioned so all you have to do is push down on the handle to get a door open. if you turn it veritcal instead of horizontal, you have to pull it to one side to get the door to open.
