Terrific Student

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

Last night, Evan stayed over Jack's house with Wade and Ethan.  Noah stayed over at Grandma and Papa's.  So Rachel and I went out.  We had a nice dinner.  We walked to a place called Voodoo Doughnuts.  Apparently it is a Portland, Oregon institution and the first one they opened out of state was here in Austin.  They are known for their crazy doughnuts.  They were huge too.  Rachel got one with chocolate icing, peanut butter drizzle and Oreos on top.  I got one with chocolate icing and Oreos.

This morning we had to get up early.  Even though it's Saturday, Noah's teacher scheduled Parent-Teacher Conferences.  The teacher wanted the students there for the conference.  We picked up Noah on our walk and then had the conference.  Noah's teacher said that Noah was a "terrific student" and that Noah was a "math genius".  She wanted to know if Noah had anyone that was good at math in his family.  We said only his entire family.  She could not say enough good stuff about Noah.

On the way home, we stopped and got Evan.

Evan and I went a little later to a batting lesson with Coach Chris.  Meanwhile, Rachel, Noah and Grandma went to Costco.

This afternoon, Rachel and Evan went for a bike ride to the Veloway.

For dinner, I picked up Pho Thai Son.  When I got home, they got the order somewhat wrong.  So Noah and I went out to pick up the mistake.  We watched Hotel Transylvania 2 while having dinner.

The boys are now in bed.

Until next time...

Sick Evan

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

This morning, I went in Evan's room to wake him up.  I brought the thermometer with me as he had a slight fever before bed last night.  I took his temperature and it was 101.  So I tucked him back in.  He ended up sleeping until 11am.  Last week was such a busy week.  He really need that extra sleep.  When he woke up, he didn't have a fever.

Papa and Grandma left around the time that Evan woke up.

Uncle Mike, Aunt Jen and Maya went out for lunch.  I picked up smoothies for Evan, Noah and me.  Evan said he wanted a smoothie.  I also went to Target to buy Wreck-It Ralph for Evan to watch while he laid down.  Hotel Transylvania was on sale so I picked that up for him too.

Evan and Noah both ate their smoothies and they relaxed and watched the two movies. I made popcorn for them during the second movie.

Around 4pm, Uncle Mike, Aunt Jen and Maya left for the airport.  At 4:45, I took Noah to the baseball field for his baseball game.  Rachel had to tutor, so Gabby came over the house.

Noah's team won again.  Noah played really well. His hitting is really improving.  Last Friday, he hit the ball harder than I have seen him hit it, though he hit it right at the shortstop who through him out.  Today, he was hitting the ball perfectly where the fielders were not.  He seems to really enjoy being out there.

When we got home, Evan told me he wanted dinner.  This was significant because he hadn't really wanted or asked for food since Friday night.  He didn't finish his dinner but he did eat, so that was good. I made dinner for Noah as well.

They are in bed now.

Until next time...

Movie Day

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

Evan was scheduled to have a flag football game today, but it wasn't until 4pm.  The movie Hotel Transylvania came out yesterday and the boys have been looking forward to seeing it.  Since the game wasn't until later, I decided we could go see it this morning.  Also, I thought that would give Rachel a chance to sleep in when there weren't two boys running around the house.

The movie started at 10am.  Before we left, I got an email saying Evan's football game was cancelled due to the rain.   I think the rain also caused lots of people to go see the movie as well.  It was very crowded.  The boys enjoyed the movie.  Lots of fart jokes.  You just can't go wrong with fart jokes.

Evan was supposed to go over Jack's house after the movies.  Noah wanted to come too.  We weren't sure how that would go over so Rachel called Cole's mom to see if Cole could come over.  She preferred to have Noah over there.  Suddenly, Rachel and I found ourselves childless.  We decided to get lunch.  We didn't need anything fancy so we went to Bruegger's Bagels.  When we came home, we put stuff back in the attic that we hadn't sold in the garage sale.

Noah did not seem happy that he had to leave Cole's.  When we picked up Evan, Jack was literally hanging on Evan saying he didn't want Evan to go.  It's nice that the boys have such good friends.

For dinner, we just had leftovers.  After dinner Rachel made meringue cookies.

The boys are now in bed.  They were pretty tired.

Until next time...
