Hello everyone, this is Morry.
Well, the long weekend didn't make it harder to get the boys going in the morning. It was very easy to get both boys up for school and, like the first week, Noah was in a very good mood and excited to go to school.
Rachel and I didn't have anything going on during the day. However, Rachel discovered the source of the smell that we thought was from the sink. Rachel and I had both smelled what we thought was rotten food in the disposal. Well apparently, our sink has been leaking. But, somewhat fortuitously, we actually had a big bin below the sink that we kept some things in. It was catching all the water and the water was moldy which was the source of the smell. I carried the entire bin outside and dumped it. It was gross. We have a plumber coming to replace the faucet on Thursday. I'd like him to look at the disposal too and make sure it's not that.
Rachel and I walked to pick the boys up. It was really really hot. It was over 100 and very humid.
In the afternoon, Rachel helped the boys with their homework and reading.
Blanca came over a bit after five and Rachel and I walked to the school for Back to School Night. We have two of these. Kindergarten and second grade are on different days. Today was Kindergarten. It was nice but we didn't learn anything new since Noah has the same teacher that Evan had when he was in Kindergarten.
We came home and ate dinner while the boys played upstairs. We had Blanca give them food.
Now the boys are in bed.
Until next time...

Last Day
Hello everyone, this is Morry.
Today is the unofficial last day of summer. School starts tomorrow. It's Noah's last day before he enters elementary school. He seems to be excited to start Kindergarten. He said he's not scared at all, which is good.
Rachel and I slept in a bit. When we got up we had to run a few errands. We stopped by Target. On the way home, we picked up smoothies at Smoothie King. The boys and I are there enough that we just have to say "We'll have our usual" but Rachel had to order something.
Rachel got the boys lunches ready for the week - at least all the non-refrigerated food. On the white board in the laundry room, she put what we should take out of the refrigerator for their lunches for each day for each boy.
In the afternoon, the boys cleaned up some and played Wii.
Dmitriy and Katheryne stopped by for a bit.
For dinner I made pizzas and then we gave the boys showers.
They are in their rooms now.

Noah the Kindergartener
Hello everyone, this is Morry.
This morning was routine as I dropped Evan off at school. Just before we left to go to school, Noah came downstairs though. I think he was excited because to do was "Kindergarten Round Up". That's where you take your child into the elementary school and get them registered for Kindergarten and take a tour of the school.
When we got there, we stood in line to get Noah all registered. Cole and his mom were right in front of us so Cole and Noah stuck together. The PTA was giving out free t-shirts to the incoming students. We knew what they showed us on the tour, but I think it was fun for Noah to see everything. We went into one of the Kindergarten classrooms. In there was a boy that Noah plays with at Evan's baseball games. He's the younger brother of one of Evan's teammates. He was really excited to see Noah and came running up to him. He and Noah talked for a while. It was really cute.
Following Kindergarten Roundup, Noah went to Cole's house.
Rachel went to tutor at 4pm. Blanca came over to babysit.
At 5:40, we left for Evan's last regular season baseball game. He seemed very excited to play today. When we got there, we saw that one of the boys on Evan's team who had broken his finger was there with his uniform on - looking like he was going to play. Evan was so excited that he ran over and started talking to him. I talked to the boy's father and Evan and the boy walked over to the fields to warm up. Just as the game was about to start, I looked at my phone. I saw a text from Rachel which reminded me that we were supposed to bring snacks for after the game. Rachel had gotten them ready but I had left them at home. I had to drive home to get them. I had never missed an inning of Evan's game before but I missed the first two innings.
When I came back Evan was playing well. He spent most of the game playing third base today. I think he really enjoyed it. I saw him get two solid singles to centerfield. It was nice seeing him hit up the middle actually after pulling the ball exclusively the last few games. Evan has gotten into sliding hard as well. After the second single that I saw, the next boy grounded to short. Evan slid really hard into the bag. The coaches just love seeing him do that. Evan's team won the game. They finished in fourth place. They will be playing the same team on Saturday at 8:30 to start off the playoffs.
We came home and I put the boys to bed. Both boys fell asleep very quickly.

Noah the Great
Hello everyone, this is Morry.
I started writing this blog last night but got interrupted.
So in the morning, I took Evan to school. As usual, he made me take his sweatshirt home with him because he wouldn't need it the rest of the day. He wears it into school. I also put a long-sleeved shirt underneath his t-shirt. When he got home from school, he was very upset that he was hot all day and was mad I had put long-sleeved shirt on?
Noah had a good day at school. He had a substitute because his teacher was running parent-teacher conferences all day.
Rachel went to a Pink Ribbon Cowgirls Lunch.
At 5pm, we had our parent-teacher conference with Noah's teacher. It was the best conference we've had for either boy. It was not possible for the teacher to gush more than she did about Noah. She said he was one of the brightest kids she has ever met and how kind and caring he is. She is worried that he's going to be bored in this last half year of pre-school and is prepared with things to challenge him. But, she said, that he's very good at playing on his own and inventing play and imagination play so he hasn't been bored yet because he comes up with things on his own. She says that he loves all the athletic play they do outside and that he loves playing with friends. Noah also doesn't discriminate - he will play with girls or boys. As long as they are doing something he wants to do, he will play with them. She said he is not going to have any problems with Kindergarten and will shine in it. She writes up a description of Noah which is turned over to the elementary school. She wants to make sure that Noah gets a teacher who will enhance those gifts and challenge him (Mr. Valdes, anyone?). She could not say enough good things about Noah and how much she loves him. Yep, Noah worked his Noah charm.
After the conference, I took Evan to basketball practice. As usual, he seemed to have fun. One of the parents compared Evan to Pete Rose because he has one speed and never gives up on a play or a rolling ball. If you ever see a kid on the ground, you can be guaranteed, it's Evan diving for the ball.
We had dinner when we got home and put the kids to bed.

The Day Before
Hello everyone, this is Morry.
Today is the last day before school starts. Evan will be a first grader officially. Noah will start his last year of preschool. One year from now, Noah will begin Kindergarten.
I got up and I needed to go to Sam's Club. Yesterday when we tried to take Rachel's car somewhere it flashed a message that the battery was going bad. So I took it in to get a new battery. Their prices were much better than NTB and I got some shopping done while they were replacing the battery.
On the way home, I stopped and got smoothies at the Smoothie King for everyone. The guy who told the staff that I was his favorite customer was there so I got special treatment.
At home I got lunch ready for the kids. Rachel had gotten up while I was gone and gotten the backpacks ready for the boys. We hadn't gone through Evan's backpack since the end of school so Rachel cleaned it out as well as cleaning up a bunch of stuff in my office.
I spent the afternoon working but walked Evan over to Jack's house to play. The boys were very excited to see each other. One of the boys from their class last year, Jax, is in with Evan this year. Jack thought that maybe they made a mistake and they meant to put Jack with Evan and they just mixed up the names. Later in the afternoon, I went back and got Evan. Noah came with me both times and played with the older boys while I talked with Jack's dad, John.
The boys played baseball outside when they got home. Evan came inside screaming "Yes!" and ran into my office to tell me that Noah caught a ball in the air with his glove.
For dinner, we ordered Hula Hut and had it delivered. We had a gift certificate left from a delivery place that brings food from restaurants that don't deliver. Rachel got food ready for the boys.
We gave the boys showers and they are now in bed. Hopefully they get some sleep for tomorrow.

First Day of School
We woke up the boys at 6:30am this morning.
Evan ate oatmeal, fruit, and orange juice for breakfast. Noah said he wanted to wait and eat when we got back home.
We left the house around 7:15am and walked to school. Noah insisted on walking instead of sitting in the stroller. He hardly ever walks, so we didn't plan on that slowing us down. It took a lot longer than we thought to get to school. We got there a few minutes before the start of school. Evan put his backpacks with the others and then sat down at a table and began coloring with the other kids. He was fine. We had to get his attention to tell him we were leaving.
We walked back home and then a little before 9am we drove Noah to school. Noah was a little more clingy than Evan. He still did well. It wasn't much of a transition for him. He moved classrooms but still had once of the same teachers. A few of the kids were same as well.
I came home and ran 2 miles, cleaned up and then went to a brunch. The Moms Club was having a Boo Hoo/Yah Hoo brunch at someone's house for all the moms that just sent their kids off to kindergarten. I stayed for maybe an hour. It was nice chatting with the other moms.
I had a little bit of time at home. I cleaned up some, ate lunch and then it was time to pick up Noah. His class was outside on the playground and he was having a fun time going down the slide. When it came time to leave Noah threw a fit. I told him we'd go home for a little bit and then pick up Evan. Well, he wanted to pick up Evan right then. He was screaming and crying that he wanted to go to the kindergarten and not go home first. It was not fun. He just picks something and decides he's going to throw a fit.
I gave him a Popsicle at home and that seemed to calm him down a little bit.
We were home for about 30-45min and then we had to leave to get Evan.
We walked because I knew the car traffic would be nuts on the first day.
We got there about 15 minutes early and chatted with some other moms and siblings of kindergarteners. They had all the kindergarten parents wait outside at a certain part of the building. Then, one by one the classes came out. Noah was very excited to see Evan. Evan seemed happy, but very tired.
Evan sat in the stroller the whole way home. Once we got home he got a burst of energy and both boys were really hyper.
For dinner Morry made grilled chicken and corn. The boys had shrimp and corn along with some other things.
Overall it was a good day. I think it will take a little time to get into a routine and figure out a good schedule for us. Tomorrow we will let Noah sleep in. Morry plans on walking Evan to school in the morning. I'll have to decide whether to drive or walk to pick him up. It was a pretty hot walk after school today.
here are some pictures... the videos are being uploaded now. I'll add them soon.

Swim Lessons #2
I didn't sleep well last night.
Normally I would workout before swim lessons, but I was really tired. Evan and Noah did well at their swim lessons and then we swam in the outdoor pool for a little bit.
At home we had lunch and then I tried to put Noah down for a nap. During Noah's "nap", I moved all of my computer/office stuff into the actual office rather than the dining room. I also did some reading workbooks with Evan. Many years ago, when I was at Texas State I volunteered working with a bilingual kindergarten student. The school gave me a bunch of workbooks and I still have them. Evan loved doing the worksheets in the book. There were letter recognition exercises and rhyming word activities. Evan wanted to keep going when I stopped to do more work on the office. We did a few more pages.
For dinner we had pasta.
We gave the boys baths, got them ready for bed, and now Morry is reading to them.

The Home Run
Hello everyone, this is Morry.
This morning, as I was backing out of the driveway, I looked up and saw Evan waving to me. He hadn't gotten up with me, so I didn't realize he was up. I guess he must have heard the garage door open and went into the game room to wave to me.
Noah slept until just before they had to go to school. They had to be on time today, because Evan's class had a field trip to the elementary school next door. It's not the elementary school that Evan will be going to though. They went to visit a Kindergarten class there.
Rachel picked me up around 11:40 because we were meeting a nutritionist at noon at a coffee shop. This was actually Rachel's Valentine's Day present as Rachel has really been trying to eat healthy. One of Rachel's obstacles in trying to eat healthy is me, so she and I met with an nutritionist and talked about what our likes and (many) dislikes are. She's going to put together a plan for us after meeting with us for a bit more than an hour.
When we finished up, Rachel didn't have enough time to drop me off at work and go pick up the boys, so I went with Rachel to pick up the boys. I went and got Evan while Rachel picked Noah up. Evan was really excited to see me as he hadn't expected me to come and pick him up. He told me he liked when I picked him up from school. Everyone drove me back to work.
I left work early today because Evan had his next tee ball playoff game. Evan has been listening well and running well. Noah told him that he needed to hit a home run. Evan told Noah that he would. While not as dramatic as Babe Ruth calling his shot, Evan made good on his promise by hitting a home run. The ball traveled about 10 feet. So really it a four-base error, but Evan ran fast around all the bases forcing the poor throws to the bases. I was really proud of Evan for his hustle and listening on the play. That's what made it so good. The ironic thing is it was probably one of Evan's worst hits all year. But it was so exciting. I ran out on the field to congratulate him. Then Evan ran into the dugout and grabbed an older kid by each shoulder and shook him and yelled "I hit a home run!" Earlier Evan had gotten up to bat and smashed the ball past second base and into the outfield, past the outfielder. Again, he hustled well and got a really solid triple. The team came from behind and won the game. Evan got the game ball for hitting and running so well. I was really proud of him. When the coach gave him the game ball, Evan screamed "Yes!" and got up to show it to me. The parents were all laughing.
We came home and made dinner. Then Rachel gave the kids baths while I cleaned up from dinner.
Now the kids are up but in their rooms. Evan is still excited about his big day.

Where Butterflies Go
This morning we all went to Kindergarten Round Up. We turned in the forms and got a tour of the building. Evan was not at all intimidated. As we walked through one kindergarten class he started heading toward the carpet area where they had stuff going on. Morry had to pull him back. It is a nice school and everyone seemed friendly.
After that we dropped the boys off at school. Victoria was happy to see Evan when he entered the classroom.
I did some cleaning around the house while they were at school.
In Noah's class they released butterflies and then asked the kids where butterflies go. They had a list of what all the kids said. Some said up in the sky, a few said Disney World. Noah said Lego Land in Dallas.
Evan was helping clean up a puzzle when I picked him up. Both Evan and Noah were in good moods.
I tried to get Noah to nap, but he didn't sleep.
Blanca came at 4;45. I tutored and then met everyone at Evan's baseball game. Noah and I left during the middle of the game so I could get dinner started.
For dinner I made a chicken noodle casserole.
Now, we are about to put Evan and Noah to bed.

Winter in May
It felt like winter here today. It was cold and rainy. We mostly stayed indoors. Around noon we went to Clayton Elementary, where Evan will go to kindergarten, to pick up his registration packet. Kindergarten registration is tomorrow.
For lunch the boys ate really well. I was surprised. They ate all of their food.
Noah actually took a nap today. I think a few things helped. It was dark outside and he didn't have any toys in his room to distract him.
Gabby came at 3:45.
I tutored one student.
For dinner we had soup and fried matzoh.
We just gave the boys a bath and now Morry is reading to them.
