What a great birthday weekend! Jordan has come a long way. He’s grown up to be such a sweet, fun, sensitive kid. We are enjoying his company so much. He asks a lot of questions, some very deep; his curiosity is unwavering.

His current obsessions: superheros and bad guys.

Jordan’s love for singing and music grows every day:

The video cut off so we started again to capture the whole song:

And Eli really follows his lead. Here’s Eli singing Happy Birthday to Jordan

Jordan’s pre-school class (camp) birthday celebration:

We were thrilled with the venue for his birthday party: Santa Monica Aquarium. Despite the heat and humidity, the kids seemed to enjoy all that it had to offer.

Pizza and cake time:

The show, including a huge whale bone:

Other photos worth sharing:

Kids singing happy birthday (I missed the English version)

One of Jordan’s favorite new presents, the chef costume:

Family celebration:

Here’s to many, many, many more!!! We love you Jordan!

It’s hard to believe, but tomorrow Jordan will be turning 4! So, I thought this would be a good opportunity to get caught up with photos and videos from the rest of his 3rd year, starting with the many faces of Jordan Wax:

He learned how to swim and now loves it!!!!

We bought a bench for our front porch, and the kids have enjoyed popsicle time there. Actually they enjoy Tammy’s homemade fruit popsicles anywhere.

Here’s some photos of Eli. He’s no baby anymore. He’s such a joy. He’s always happy.

It’s all fun and games

Even hiccups are funny

Selfie collection:

Hanging with friends:

Nothing better than seeing how much Jordan and Eli love each other. Jordan talks about Eli as if they are best friends and they copy each other on everything

Maybe my favorite photos ever

No shortage of birthday parties

Jordan hasn’t seen Star Wars but he’s obsessed with talking about it because one of his friends talks about it. He is dying to know more. His friend even had a Star Wars party. Jordan is no jedi master

Eli jumping

Family day at the beach

Hanging with Tali and Ari

Outing to the mall with Daddy when Tammy was out of town

Jordan was too scared to go up on one of the animals until he saw Eli up there. And then he showed off with no hands:

I ordered one of the Grateful Dead shows as a pay-per-view and streamed it to watch and listen. The kids watched the first couple of songs with me

Tammy and I celebrated our 5th wedding anniversary at the Penthouse at Huntley in Santa Monica overlooking the ocean. Easily the best 5 years of my life. They only get better.

Tammy’s cousins organized a bonfire at the beach for the whole extended family, complete with fun, love, drums and s’mores!! We were also celebrating Yossi’s and Shoshana’s birthdays
