Farmer's Market

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

Noah woke up in the middle of the night last night. At first he was crying that he had to pee and then he was crying that he wanted his door opened. His door wasn't full closed and he can open it himself, there's nothing stopping him. His gate was open already. And he can leave his room and get us if he needs help going to the bathroom. Rachel and I have decided he needs we will not give into these demands. If he wants to come in our room and ask us without whining or crying, we will help him. This went on for an hour or so. I do think he eventually went to the bathroom, or at least opened the door himself. His pull-up was dry this morning.

The boys got up and played in the game room some. Then Rachel got up and went for a run while I continued cleaning up the office upstairs and getting all my computer equipment set up. I'm just about finished.

Then we went to the Sunset Valley Farmer's Market. It didn't seem to be as big as it has been other times we went. It could have something to do with the high being around 103 degrees. We walked around and looked at the produce. We saw a demonstration of a screen printing (using all natural ink) on a t-shirt. Then we got water ice for the boys. Noah and I each got an all natural grass fed beef hot dog. It was pretty good. It was kind of spicy but Noah ate all of his. Then each boy picked out their own sweet bell pepper.

We got home and Rachel made lunch for herself and cut up the peppers for the boys. Evan ate his entire pepper.

After lunch, Evan and I went to a birthday party for a boy from his tee ball team. It was at the Little Gym where Evan used to have his sports class. He seemed to have a really good time. I had a good time talking to the dads.

When we got home, Noah not napping. Noah ended up playing in the game room with GeoTrax and Evan watched TV downstairs.

Gabby came over at 6:30 to babysit for the boys. Rachel and I drove up to the Domain and ate at a restaurant called Gloria's. We walked around a bit there and listened to a live band.

When we got home, Evan was still up. He wanted me to read a book to him. We finished the second Harry Potter book last night. I found my old copy of Mr. Popper's Penguins. I told Evan I would read that to him next. He has wanted to go see the movie. The funny thing about that book is I wrote my name in it - in first grade. So my handwriting was very child-like. It's amazing because Evan is almost that same age. It's kind of crazy.

Noah is sleeping. Let's hope he sleeps through the whole night.

Until next time...
