The Mall

We walked to school today. Well, I walked pushing the stroller most the way. Evan walked just a little when we were almost there. There’s a little field we cut through by the pool to get to school. Evan asked to walk at that point.

After dropping Evan off, Noah and I met Alissa at the mall. For some reason Noah was really cranky. He cried a lot. I’m thinking maybe he was just really tired. He would calm down as soon as I held him. I tried to get in and out as fast as I could. I picked up a few clothes for Evan and Noah at Old Navy, The Children’s Place, and Gymboree. I had something to return at Gap. It was a gift someone gave Noah that wasn’t the right size. I didn’t feel like trying to shop around Gap at that point, so I just got the merchandise credit and will go another time to pick something out for him. I also had to stop at the Mac store. It is Blanca’s birthday today, so I picked up an itunes gift card for her.

We got home in time for me to feed Noah lunch and then leave to pick up Evan.

After I picked Evan up at school we went to the bank. I had some checks to deposit. They changed the way the ATM works. You used to be able to be able to deposit all the checks at once in one envelope. Now, they have you insert them one at a time. It reads the amount on the check and you have to verify after inserting each one. It takes a really long time. I had maybe 10 checks to deposit. It took forever and Noah was screaming in the car the whole time. Sometimes, it makes more sense for me to just get the boys out of the car, go in the bank, and have the teller deposit them. I just didn’t feel like getting the boys out of the car since I just put them in at Evan’s school. Oh, and if we go in the bank Evan has to have a lollipop. I didn’t feel like doing all that, but it probably would have been faster.

For some reason Evan didn’t want to nap. Noah went down easily. Once Evan finally fell asleep, Noah woke up. He didn’t sleep that long. Evan actually ended up sleeping a while. Blanca came over at 5:00 and Evan was still sleeping when Morry got home at 5:30.

I tutored two students and got home about 8:00.

We took a short walk around the neighborhood and Evan walked most of the way.

The boys are in bed now and I’m finally going to eat some dinner.
