Four-eyed Family

Hello everyone, this is Morry. This is the first post I've written in a week.

Last night, Noah got up a ton of times. Rachel and I alternated going in there. The boys seem to have runny noses again so I don't know if that was what was bothering Noah. His stomach may have been bothering him as well. Or it could simply be separation anxiety as he has shown some of that. In any event, he would get up every few hours.

When we finally got up for good, all of us went over to Rachel's eye doctor's office. She had gone for a checkup a few days ago and they said she needed to new glasses and that should wear them more often. She had picked out a few glasses and I gave her my opinion. So now Rachel and I will both be wearing glasses.

After that we went to Walmart to get a toy for a birthday party that we were going to this afternoon. We also got a booster/car seat for Evan for my car.

We went home and had lunch and Evan was very cranky. Actually, so was Noah. Both boys didn't eat too much and we put them down for a nap. Then I spent a long time getting the new car seats in the car for Evan and flipping the Evan's old car seats around so they are rear-facing for Noah. Now, Noah is officially out of the infant car seat. In about 2.5 months we can switch him to forward facing.

We got to the birthday party late because of the naps. It was at the Little Gym which is kind of like Gymboree. There were 21 toddlers there. It was nuts. That doesn't include some of the kids who had little siblings closer to Noah's age. Evan was a bit of a pain at first but he ended up having a good time. He had a cupcake and then wanted more. I gave him a bit of my cupcake.

Tonight, Blanca came over and babysat for the boys. Rachel's brother got us a gift card to the Alamo Drafthouse, as well as a $30 check for babysitting. The Alamo Drafthouse is a movie theater that also serves dinner. We went to go see Marley and Me. When we got there, it was already sold out so we saw Yes Man. It was decent. Probably a good rental. It was entertaining though. It was nice getting out.

When we got home Blanca was reading to Evan in bed. She had put him down a while before, but he got out of bed so she was trying to get him back to bed. I then read to him and put him down, but he's out of bed again. I hope he goes to sleep soon.

Until next time...
