This morning, Evan and Noah got up early. I was completely out and didn't hear either boy so Rachel got up with them. I slept until about 9am. I'm feeling a lot better and was able to actually eat meals without feeling awful afterwards. I'm still not 100% but close to it.
When I got up and came downstairs, Rachel was making Rice Krispie Treats. Evan was supposed to be helping but he was just playing around.
After we all tried some of the Rice Krispie Treats, we went to a garden store here in Austin that we just heard about called The Natural Gardener. It's a huge place and they have animals on the premises. They actually use the animals to help farm the land. Rachel wanted to get vegetables to plant in our backyard. When we got there the place was a madhouse. Apparently a Saturday morning early in spring is a big time for people to shop. After some idiot stole my parking spot we found a place to park and went in. They had old red radio flyer wagons to pull around and put your plants in. Evan loved it. At first he sat in the wagon. Then he insisted on pulling it. We got some tomatoes, peppers and herbs - like parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme (ok, start singing). We also got peppermint, some garlic thing and a few others. We'll see how it works out. We also bought some compost to add to the soil. The people working there were very nice, helpful and knowledgeable. I'd recommend the place.
We came home and made some lunch. Neither boy ate very much. Noah was very cranky, so we put him down for a nap right after lunch.
After naps, we went to a place called Precision Camera and Video. Last summer we got a new digital camera but we also said in the future we'd want a nice digital SLR camera. The regular digital camera takes some pretty good shots, but with the both boys having birthday parties coming up, we thought it'd be nice to get a really good camera. We knew which one we wanted and got it.
From there we went to Enchiladas Y Mas which is somewhat close to the camera store. That place has the best fajitas in Austin, if not anywhere I've tried fajitas, hands down. I figured I'd be taking a chance having just gotten over my sickness, but luckily I was able to handle it. It really is good. Evan was very well behaved and ate a bunch. Noah, on the other hand, was still cranky. I don't know if he's getting sick (hopefully not) or whether he's teething or whether he was tired or what. I had to hold him towards the end.
We came home, tried out the new camera (you can see some of the pictures below), and gave the boys bath.
They are now in bed and being quiet which is good.
Until next time...
