Hello everyone, this is Morry.
Evan's football game wasn't until 11 this morning so we slept in some. He had to be at the fields at 10:30. Noah came with us.
Evan's team got the ball first. The first pass of the game was thrown to Evan. He managed to make the first guy miss. As the first guy fell, though, he hit Evan's foot which caused Evan to lose his balance. Evan caught himself but it was enough time for the other defenders to come over and pull his flag. The third play of the game they threw to Evan in the middle of the field. He made the first guy miss again, hit the sidelines and ran all the way for a touchdown. Unfortunately, there was an offside penalty on Evan's team so it didn't count. The other team got the ball but were stopped with a 3 and out. Evan's team got the ball. They tried the exact same pass as the one that scored the touchdown that was called back. This time the defender and Evan jumped up to get the ball and it was tipped in the air. Evan came down with the tip, ran to the side and then turned it up and ran all the way for a touchdown again. This time it counted. He was really happy. He didn't get another touchdown. But when he played on defense he blitzed the quarterback and forced a bad throw that led to a pick-6. He was very happy with the game.
Evan, Noah and I stopped at Smoothie King for smoothies on the way home.
Rachel had left to go to a baby shower for Lauren up in Round Rock. She stopped at Ikea to return something while she was up there.
Grandma and Papa came in today but they went straight to their house to drop stuff off and look at the house. Rachel was on her way home from the shower. I had to take Evan and Jack to Wade's birthday party. I was going to leave Noah at the house alone because Rachel was going to be home shortly. Grandma called him and asked if he wanted to walk to their house. So they met half way. Noah left the house on his own. He set the alarm correctly. And met Grandma half way. He then was worried that I'd get back from dropping Evan off and be worried he wasn't there. So he made sure that Grandma called me so I knew where he was. Noah is really becoming a grown up.
For dinner, we went to Flores restaurant. It was just ok. Evan is staying at Wade's house tonight. I will get him early for our baseball games tomorrow.
Until next time...

Cave
This morning we left the house around 9am and drove to Georgetown to go to Inner Space Cavern. Evan went with school last year and really liked it. We got a neat tour inside the cave. Both boys seemed to enjoy it. After the tour the boys got a bag of sand/rocks that they had to sift through to get to the gem/rocks. They liked that.
For lunch we met Aunt Susan at Fish City Grill in Georgetown.
After that we did some shopping at IKEA.
It was a long day, but the boys did pretty well and we all had fun.
For dinner we had leftover corned beef from last night.
The boys are in bed now.

Sad Super Sunday
Hello everyone, this is Morry.
Everyone can relax. I am still alive. Despite the game, which shall rename nameless, that ended so poorly, I did not do anything drastic to myself. It will take some time to get over, but I'm as good as can be expected now.
This morning, Rachel got up and let me sleep a bit. Then we got everything ready and drove to Ikea. We needed some shelves for the office and drawers for our closets.
We planned to put the kids in the child care there. To go into the child care, children need to be 37" and be potty trained. Evan was plenty tall, but Noah was close. They had him take off his shoes and stand against a wall that had a line drawn. They then put a clipboard on his head and put it against the wall. The bottom edge of the white line butted up with the clipboard but didn't actually tough, although there was no visible gap. They said that since he was below that line, we could not leave him there. So he was short by the depth of the clipboard, surely less than 1/8 inch. Evan said he wanted to still go to the playroom and we left him. Noah came with us as we shopped. After an hour I went and picked up Evan. He didn't want to leave. He was very busy playing. He said he had been playing with some other boys.
We ended up getting what we came for, as well as some bowls and cups for the kids and hampers.
After Ikea, we walked over to Which Wich. We met Aunt Susan there. In the shopping center with Ikea is a row of restaurants with a deck outside all of them. Beyond the deck is a playground. We ate lunch outside and then let the kids play in the playground.
When we got home, Noah napped while Evan watched the Puppy Bowl.
Then I watched something on TV. Rachel picked up the Salt Lick for us. For a bit, Rachel took the kids outside because some other kids were playing.
The boys are now in bed. Evan is saying he's scared of something. Not sure what that is and I'm not sure it's real.

Ikea with Nolan and Court
I dropped Evan off at school around 9am. I packed his lunch because I wasn’t sure if he’d be at school the whole time or if we’d meet up with Sherah and family.
When I got home I talked to Sherah and we made plans to meet at Ikea around 11:30. They have kid’s activities and super cheap lunches there all week for Spring Break.
I picked Evan up from school at 10:45. We arrived at Ikea around 11:20. Aunt Susan, Sherah, JW, Noah, and Court had just gotten there too. When we walked in they were handing out green balloons and I put one of Evan’s wrist. He was having a great time playing with it and hitting it. We started walking through the store. It was just a few minutes later and all of the sudden, Evan’s balloon popped. He seemed very surprised. I wasn’t sure if he was going to cry. But, he was ok. We all just kind of laughed about it. I think Evan still wasn’t quite sure what happened. Evan was doing very well walking and staying by the stroller. We stopped in the kid’s section and all of the boys had a great time playing. There was a train set, neat kinds of chairs, tents, a see-saw, … We spent a lot of time in that area.
Then, we went over to the restaurant. We sat down at a big table and I gave Evan his school lunch I had made for him while I fed Noah some applesauce. They were selling kid’s meals for $.49. I bought 3 meals (for Noah, Evan, and I to share) and a soft drink. The whole thing cost less than $4. I ended up eating most of the food. I ordered meals with meat balls, plain pasta, vegetables, and macaroni and cheese. Evan ate some, but Noah mostly threw it on the floor.
After lunch Evan wanted his face painted so we went to stand it line. The line was really long and there was only one person painting faces, so I asked Evan if he would rather go to the park. Of course, he said yes.
We made our way though the rest of the store (which takes forever – they make you walk through the whole store to leave). I bought a few things, so we checked out and went to the park/playground across the parking lot from Ikea.
As we were leaving I thought I recognized Yenis’s car.in the parking lot. I called her and that was their car and they were in Ikea. Yenis told me Kevin said he saw Evan, but Yenis tried to tell Kevin it must have been someone that just looked like Evan.
At the playground the kids had a fun. It was pretty hot and getting close to nap time, so we didn’t stay that long.
On the way home we hit traffic – unusual for that time. Near Mopac and William Cannon they had both directions of Mopac closed and everyone had to get off the highway by driving through the grass. It was a mess. I later found out it was because of fallen power lines.
We didn’t get home until 3:00pm and they boys took great naps. They were exhausted.
For dinner we had already cooked roasted chicken that we just had to heat up in the oven. We had pasta as a side.
After dinner we went to Target.
The boys went to bed late tonight. We just put them to bed around 9:30.
