3rd and 4th nights of Hanukkah 2012

Here are photos from the 3rd and 4th night of Hanukkah at the Schulman's:

 This picture came out blurry so we could capture the glow of the candles on the 3rd night.  Mama posed this time with the kids.

 Zachary got a game he had been wanting, and his reaction upon unwrapping was, "YES!"  Mama and Daddy were very pleased.

 Zoe got the hair salon chair for her dolls that she had been wanting and as you can see above, her reaction was a giant hug to Mama - and she said something to the affect of, "This was what I really wanted!" Again, Mama and Daddy were very pleased, we love when the kids are happy on Hanukkah.

 The 4th night of Hanukkah was GG and Zadie's gift night and we skyped with them via Glenn's new iPad.  So as we snapped some pics, the kids made a more silly pose followed by 'normal' smiles.

 Here we are skyping - we sang the brachot and Maot Tzur with them before they watched the kids open the presents that they had sent.  GG and Zadie enjoyed our virtual menorah lighting together.  We enjoyed it too.

 Zoe got some of the 'girly' legos, a nightgown set for her and her doll, and a hanukkah set for her doll. She was thrilled.  Although the nightgown was short sleeve, Zoe and her doll slept in them anyway, she just couldn't wait. Her doll, Rebecca Rubin, is already enjoying her hanukkiah and dreidel.

Here is Zachary with his new safe and lego set.  He was so excited both to build the legos (which came with a lego light brick - too cool), and to put his money into the safe.  The safe even counts the money so he enjoyed seeing how much money he actually has, and Mama was happy the money was being moved from various bags and things it was currently stored in throughout his room.
Thanks GG and Zadie for the wonderful gifts.
