Baseball, Lake, and a Movie

This morning Evan had a t-ball game. Morry and Evan left the house around 8am this morning. They had a good game, but lost. Evan had a good time.

When Morry and Evan got home we all went to the lake and walked the 3 mile trail. We stopped at one point the let Lizzy swim and fetch the ball.

At home we quickly got lunch ready and then I tutored here at the house.

Morry volunteered to help with the concession stand at the baseball field. The concession stand is run by volunteers from each team. This week was our teams turn, so they asked a few parents to help out. Morry's time slot was 1:50 -3:30.

While Morry was gone I tried to get Noah to nap, but was unsuccessful.

The boys and I filled the pinata for the party and then I gave Lizzy a haircut on the upstairs porch.

A little before 6pm we dropped Evan and Noah off at Clubhouse for Kids so Morry and I could see a movie. We saw Cedar Rapids at the Alamo Drafthouse. Evan and Noah got pizza for dinner at the Clubhouse and they said they had a good time.

We just got home. The boys are having dessert (Popsicles and grapes) and then we'll put them to bed.

Day of Cousins

This morning both boys got up somewhat early. I spent the morning cleaning up more. Evan watched as I made my bed and Noah’s bed. He said he wanted to make his own bed. He was very proud of himself. Here are a few pictures.

Also, lately Evan likes to style his own hair. He'll get his hair wet in the sink and then comb it. This morning I saw him helping Noah style his hair too. Very cute!

Sherah, JW, Nolan, and Court came over around 12. They picked up pizza from Little Caesars. Evan and Noah were so excited when they got here. The boys played very well together. After eating Sherah and I took Noah and Court party shopping. We went to Party City and Walmart to find some things for Lauren’s shower.

When we got home Noah was pretty tired so I put him down for a nap. They left pretty soon after.

Morry took Mottel to the vet today for a check up. Mottel has been shedding more than usual and they think it’s from his steroids, so they are lowering the dosage hoping to get him off them completely in a few months.

For dinner we went to Boston Market and then went to Matt and Rachael’s house for Rachael’s shower. We brought the kids with us. The men watched tv and the kids played upstairs mostly during the shower. At one point Noah was with the men and was eating grapes on a plate on the floor (there was no table in the room). Noah was jumping around and somehow tripped and ending falling and sitting right on the plate of grapes and smooshed them. Everyone thought it was pretty funny, even Noah.

We got home around 10pm and put the boys to bed. It has been a long day.

Pizza Day and Picture Day

Evan and Noah slept until almost 8am this morning.

All of us took Evan to school today. It was our turn to bring in food to go with the pizza.  We brought grapes, watermelon, and drinkable yogurt.  They took professional pictures today at Evan’s school.  We’ll see how they look. Hopefully Evan smiled.

Morry took Noah to Target while I went to a doctor’s appointment.

Morry, Noah, and I ate lunch and then picked up Evan from school.

When we got home we put Evan and Noah down for naps, but only Noah napped.

I tutored one student this afternoon. 

I got home about 7pm.  Morry had dinner pretty much ready when I got home. 

While Morry cleaned up from dinner, I vacuumed and cleaned up downstairs.  We have playgroup coming over to our house tomorrow morning.

Evan and Noah are in bed now, but still talking.
