This morning we picked up Grandma and Papa around 9am and then went to Cedar Park (45 minutes) to Garrett's birthday party. They rented out a pool. We had a nice time. The boys played water basketball for a lot of the time. Evan also jumped off the high dive board. We were surprised to see Ben, Matt's son, working there as a lifeguard. He came up to say hi.
We came back home and took it easy until it was time for Chewie's training at 3pm.
Chewie did well. He enjoyed eating all of the treats.
We ate dinner at home tonight and then went to TCBY for dessert.
Now the kids are playing in the gameroom.

Wins
Hello everyone, this is Morry.
This morning Noah had a baseball game at 10:15. I got up around 8am and took my time getting the boys ready. It was a very nice morning this morning. It was the perfect temperature. As usual, Noah's team dominated the game. Noah had a good play where he ran very fast from first to second to avoid getting out. If he hadn't left first immediately when the ball was hit, he would have been out.
On the way home, we stopped at Target. The boys got gift cards at their birthday party last week so they wanted to get Legos. Noah got a SpongeBob one and Evan got Star Wars.
I made lunch while they were building the Legos.
They played with Legos and the Wii in the afternoon while I worked. When I finished up, Evan and I played football outside.
We had a very early dinner because Evan had a game at 6:30 and we had to be there at 5:30.
Evan's team dominated their game as well. They had played very poorly last weekend but they made all the key plays today. Evan didn't have that great of a game. He seemed to be swinging under the pitches and fouling the ball a lot. He did get two hits in the game and popped out to the pitcher once. In the field, he didn't get any opportunities, unfortunately. Even with that, he still was in a good mood. He was very happy his team won.
Noah spent the whole game with Garrett, as usual. Garrett's mom took them to the concession stand twice. The first time, before the game, Noah asked me if he could go along. All I had was a twenty dollar bill so I gave it to Noah and told him he could get one thing and to bring me the change. Noah immediately went around and showed everyone he had a twenty dollar bill. Kids from Evan's team who were in line waiting to take their turn left their place in line to see the money. I started to worry I'd never see that money again. I'm not sure what Noah bought with it actually, but he got cotton candy for Evan. Then later, during the game, Noah told me he wanted a hot dog. I said fine and gave him a five from the change he had brought back.
We got home and I put the kids to bed.
Until next time..

Opening Day
Hello everyone...
Today was the official start of the the spring baseball season. Noah's team kicked off the day with a 9am game. I woke him up around 7:30. Sometimes he can be difficult to wake up, but he got up very easily and seemed excited for his game. I woke Evan up a bit later once Noah was eating his breakfast and in his uniform.
It was very cold this morning - in the upper 30 to low 40s at game time. But it was a beautiful day, without a cloud in the sky. Noah played well and listened well. He got out on one hit for only the second time ever. But he seemed to be ok with it. His team won the game. In fact, since Noah has started playing, his team has not lost a game. The team they played today was good and gave Noah's team a pretty good run.
After the game, the coach's wife brought donuts and the kids played together for a while. It was a nice time.
We came home. The boys played Wii a bit and we had lunch. We wanted Evan to take it easy because his game was at 6:30 and he has a little cold. They played with legos after lunch and then eventually went outside to play baseball.
Noah came with us to Evan's warmups. A boy on Evan's team has a younger brother who plays tee ball. Noah and this boy, Garrett played together a bit in the fall, but today they were inseparable. They were sticking together. There's a picture of the two of them together below. The other boy called Noah his "BFF".
Evan's team played the last game of the day. He played a good game. In the bottom of the first, Evan hit a hard ground ball which I thought was going to go between first and second but the first baseman got to it. It then was a race to first base. Evan was running pretty hard and the two boys got there at the same time in a massive collision. I wish I could see the replay but Evan somehow was lower than the other boy and ended up taking out his legs. I think their knees hit. The other boy went flying. I thought Evan stayed upright the whole time but we have a picture of him on the ground, so I guess he must have fallen too. Unfortunately he was out, but I think he impressed people by running through that bag. I think the whole incident scared him because once he got over to me, he began to cry. He got past it as the inning ended one batter later and he went out to third base. On the first pitch, a boy hit a line drive that Evan was able to snag for the first out of the inning. In the bottom of the third, Evan hit a double to right field. Somehow, on a heads-up play, he scored from second on a ball hit to shortstop without the aid of an error. He was running hard to third and when the shortstop looked at first, he turned and went home. The coach sent him and he ran hard an scored. Evan's singled in the 5th and came around to score. However, Evan's team lost the game. At first Evan seemed ok with it, but he told me he was really sad when we got home.
Rachel picked up food for us at Pho Thai Son but we put the boys to bed before we had our dinner.

Mottel's bday
Today is Mottel's birthday. He's now 15!
This morning after Noah got up and we had breakfast we went to Aunt Susan's house. We hung out with her and Grandma for a little bit. We picked up lunch at Zorba's and then ate at Lauren's house. Noah and Garrett had fun running around together. It was fun seeing Noah as the big kid.
We came back home in time to get Evan from school. He was in a good mood, like most days.
Around 5pm I took Noah to his baseball practice while Morry worked from home. Evan stayed at home.
When we got home I made dinner (leftovers), read with Evan, and put the boys to bed. Morry is working on a big project now and is still doing work.
The boys are in bed, but not asleep yet.
Here are pictures from today.

Raining again
This morning I thought I would run, but when I went to take Noah to school it started raining. Noah did well this morning. He did not fight getting ready for school.
At 10:30 I met Lauren and Garrett to go shopping. We are planning a baby shower for Michael and Jen and we went to go look at some things for the party. We went all around north Austin to various craft stores and dollar stores.
On the way home I stopped at the post office to mail something. There weren't that many people, but for some reason the line was moving really slow. I was worried I wouldn't have time to get to the front of the line and pick up Noah. I called Morry and he was able to get Noah. I probably could have made it in time to get him or maybe been a couple of minutes late. It was nice Morry was able to do that.
While I was at Evan's school picking him up, I got a text that my tutoring was canceled.
For dinner we had pizza.
The boys just took a shower to help with congestion. Morry is reading to them now.

Playing with Uncle Mike and Aunt Jen
I ran 3 miles with the boys in the stroller this morning.
We went to swim lessons at 10am. Evan and Noah did well and Noah didn't cry at all today. Below is video from the swim lesson today.
The rest of the day we hung out at home. Michael and Jen were still here and they boys loved playing with them. Lauren and Garrett came over for a while this afternoon as well. We all had a nice time.
Evan and Noah seemed a little sad when Michael and Jen left to go to the airport around 4pm.
For dinner we had pasta and salad.
In a few minutes we'll start getting the boys ready for bed.

Rise and Shine
This morning both boys were up at 6:30am. That's very early for them. Evan said he heard the air conditioning come on and thought it was the garage door. When he ran out in the hallway Noah was coming out to use the restroom. Both boys were excited to see each other and never went back to sleep.
Evan and Noah were very hyper this morning, but then it turned to crankiness. I dropped them off at Clubhouse for Kids around noon. I packed a lunch for them to eat there.
I stopped in Target to get a few things and then went to the hospital to visit Lauren and Shayne. She had her baby last night. I visited with Lauren, Shayne, Aunt Susan, Aaron, Mandy, and of course baby Garrett for about an hour.
I picked up the boys at Clubhouse for Kids and then we came home. Noah wouldn't nap.
For dinner we had flank steak and corn. Noah ate really well. He actually ate our dinner, which was nice. Evan ate ok.
We tried getting the boys ready for bed a little early, but they are both still awake right now.
