Last Swim Lesson with Ms Kathy

This morning we had our last swim lesson. Evan and Noah did well. See the video below. They made huge improvements. It was definitely worth it.

After swimming I dropped them off at Clubhouse for Kids so I could get a few things done.

When I picked them up we went to Target so the boys could pick out a toy. I promised they could get a small toy when we finished swimming lessons. Noah picked out 3D sidewalk chalk and Evan picked a Steelers Roethlisberger figure.

Noah was very cranky this afternoon and eventually fell asleep in the hallway on the floor for a little bit.

When Morry got home we walked to Evan's new school to see the class/teacher list. They said they'd post it after 5 today. Evan has Mr. Valdes and there is one girl we know in the class with him. We will go tomorrow to meet the teacher and drop off school supplies.

For dinner we had hamburger sliders.

Morry and the boys are watching the Steelers game right now.

Super Bowl Champion Pittsburgh Steelers

Hello everyone, this is Morry. I'm sure everyone would be disappointed if I was not the one writing the blog tonight - the night the Pittsburgh Steelers captured their 6th Super Bowl Title. But I'll get to that in a minute.

The boys got up this morning around 8:30am. Rachel and Zayde got the boys dressed while I attempted to sleep. A combination of being able to hear them and already thinking about the Super Bowl prevented me from going to back to sleep.

We decided to go to the Cypress Grill for Sunday brunch. We had a coupon for a free breakfast meal so we thought we'd go there. We were seated right away but the food took forever to be served. Both boys were very, very patient the whole time. They were great. Noah ate a ton of stuff including fruit. We ordered a blueberry pancake for Evan. He ate about half of it and picked out some of the blueberries.

When we got home, we went outside and let the boys play out front. Evan rode his bike a bit, then he asked me to ride the bike with the bike trailer on it. He rode in the back. I have to tell you, that's really tough. Also, Rachel drew train tracks with chalk on the driveway. Evan was having a good time with his trains on the train track. Noah was crawling all around. He seemed to have a great time outside. There is a video of our time outside down in the videos at the bottom of the page.

We came inside and Noah took a nap. Evan played a bit more and then we put him down for a nap. While the boys were napping, Rachel got a call to tutor some girl. I guess it was a tutoring emergency.

The boys got up from their nap before the Super Bowl started. Matt came over to watch the game too. We ordered the Salt Lick barbecue to eat during the game and Rachel went to pick it up.

The game was intense. The Steelers jumped out to a lead and it looked like they were going to just blow the Cardinals out. But in the 4th quarter, the Cardinals came back and actually took the lead with 2:49 left in the game. But Roethlisberger and Santonio Holmes brought the Steelers down the field to win the game. Unbelievable. It was amazing. Just amazing.

Evan seemed very excited that the Steelers won the game. I'm not sure he completely understood what was going on, but he was excited because I was excited.

There are pictures below of the day.

Until next time...
