May everyone have a Happy and Happy Month of Adar round 2!
Good Shabbos to y'all!

P.S. Anyone that was wondering what was up with the "good Shabbos" text I sent them, well I was just in the mood of sending all my relatives that text, nothin special.
hehe, you're my cousins and you'll just have to deal with it.

Gershon Dovber Update

Little Gershon Dovber started to crawl up the staircase in my house, well actually he started in the Krasniansky's house last Shabbos, he does it very well. I will try to get a video of it and post it up on the blog for everyone to see.

Gants Bava Basra Bal Peh (The Whole Bava Basra )

There is a story told with the Rebbe. A Bochur (or his principal) once came in to the Rebbe and told the Rebbe that this Bochur did the whole Bava Basra Bal Peh, when the Rebbe heard this he stood up and with great joy said "Gants Bava Basra"! Well I would like to inform you that me and Mendel Kraz are 2 of 6 Bochurim doing "Gants Bava Basra"! We're holding 120 Blat Bal Peh and have 50 to go. We hope and we're sure that we're giving our parents, grandparents, family and of course the Rebbe, great Nachas. Good Shabbos!

Good Shabbos!

Well this Shabbos, everyone will be spending in Crown Heights for the Shloishim.
That is everyone but my family, you see unfortunately since like two months ago, my family was planning on going to Manhattan this exact Shabbos for a Bar Mitzva of a kid my father tutors and there was already reservations and all before anyone knew anything about the plans for this Shabbos.
Therefore due to these circumstances we will be unable to attend the Shloishim. But we will be there with everyone at heart and we will Iy"h celebrate the Shloishim our own way up at the Chabad House.

So everyone will be staying at our house for Shabbos, how exciting! Whoever is sleeping in my room, you have a tremendous Zechus and responsibility.

Yesterday I went to visit Luba Alte Taibel and the whole family, they have a live-in nurse staying there to help out with the baby, Luba is Bli Ayin Hora very very cute and she's Boruch Hashem doing very good!

Good Shabbos to y'all!

P.S. My sister Mushka will be staying in Crown Heights with you guys for Shabbos, take care of her, I'm sure it'll be hard for her without me around!

I know it's a little late for this announcement but being that it has not been posted yet, I'll do it now:
Luba Alteh Teibel Jacobson, has come home this past Friday, the 16th of Adar 1 (February 22).
Boruch Hashem!
May she grow up to be a true source of Nachas for everyone!

Good Shabbos!

Well this Shabbos my family is having the opportunity to host Chanie, Levi, Mushka and Leeba Stone.
There's a lot of snow on the ground here in Crown Heights and now it's raining which is turning all the snow into slush.
It's been a pleasure, Have a good one!
GOOD SHABBOS TO ALL!
