Mommy in Chicago

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

We continued the good stretch of Evan in bed last night. He came downstairs once because he said he had a paper cut but other than that, he stayed in bed and went to sleep.

He is getting up early now, but I guess I'd rather him go to sleep earlier and get up earlier.

We got up early this morning because I had to take Rachel to the airport. She's going to Chicago for her cousin Jordan's wedding. It's a black-tie affair and so no kids are allowed. That's why the boys and I are staying home. Just before Rachel came downstairs, Evan got up and came down with her. I got him breakfast and turned on Curious George for him. Gabby came to the house and Rachel and I left for the airport.

At 12:30, Blanca came and took care of the boys for the rest of the day. She made them lunch and put them down for naps.

I got home around 5:30. We played some Wii and then went to McDonald's for dinner. The boys were fairly well behaved there. Evan ate all his food. Noah just had his apple juice and french fries. He didn't eat his nuggets.

After dinner, we went outside and played on the playground. Some other kids came out and played too. All the kids got along.

We came home and I got them ready for bed. Evan has come out once to go to the bathroom. I can hear Noah making noise. Hopefully Evan continues to stay in bed.
