This was one of my best fasts (25 hours, no water or food!) yet. The only prep I did was drinking a lot of water, no bananas or other tricks. And B"H it went well. I only nursed 3 times while fasting ( morning, nap, bedtime) and I was able to be active (and not need to lay down) most of the day. I was just a little spent for "socializing" with the kids in the last few hours, but thank G-d was able to do some great projects with them and help them to have playdates and activities to do. I think I'm seeing over the hill on the tougher times fasting while nursing. Phew!
I read a lot of good articles and watched some good video shiurim on AlephBeta.org. Here are some pics of our projects! Rachelli and Adira had a short "camp" for the little kids and Nesi went to Camp Ora for a few hours too.
The kotel picture is printed from the Challa Crumbs blog, and we wrote our tefillas on the stones before decorating with sand or glitter.
