We walked the boys to school today and Noah threw a fit a lot of the walk.
Later this morning Bernardo picked up Simon. We were sad to see him leave. We had fun with him.
I tutored. Morry picked up the kids and Gabby came over.
Evan and Noah went to baseball practice and Evan's coached picked up Evan a little later for their practice.
After my tutoring, I got Evan at his practice and then we all met at home.
For dinner we had a frozen Asian meal.
The boys are in bod now and Evan's already asleep.

Parties
This morning we didn't really sleep in. Noah kept coming in. He was concerned about Simon. Simon slept fine downstairs. It turns out he just has really bad arthritis and needs lots of help getting up. Once we got him up he was able to walk around decently.
Morry went to the baseball fields at 10am to help with the cleanup. He was there for a few hours.
The boys and I went to Sams Club.
At 3pm I took Noah to a birthday party. He had a good time there. Many of his friends from school were there. There was a bouncy house, and Noah even got to ride a horse. Yes, they had horse rides at this party.
Then, we came home for a few minutes and left again for another party. We all went to a party at our friends' ranch in Driftwood. The boys had a really good time. There was a zip line, hay rides, egg toss, pumpkin decorating, and more.
We just got home a little while ago. The boys are ready for bed and in their rooms.

More On Simon
Hello everyone, this is Morry.
The boys went to sleep very early last night. So this morning was more pleasant that normal. Both boys were in a good mood on our walk to school.
At lunch time, Rachel and I went to Wholy Bagels. We stopped at Alamo Drafthouse to get gift cards for two kids whose birthday parties the boys were invited to.
As normal, we picked the boys up from school. For a little while Jack come over to our house and then they went over to Jack's house later on.
On the way to pick up the boys, we heard Simon again. He didn't sound quite as bad as yesterday. On the way home, we decided to bring him into our yard.
He seemed happy in our yard. Gabriela's brother came over and we asked if they wanted us to keep Simon while the family was away. He said that was fine. Then we brought him into the house to around everyone. He seemed happy but unfortunately, he is now just laying down and we haven't been able to get him up to move since about 5:30. We're worried about him.
In the meantime, Noah has his first loose tooth!
At 5:30, we left to pickup Evan and take him to a birthday party for a boy in his class. It was at a place that you rent out and they have a ton of arcade games, air hockey, skee ball, a classic Nintendo and classic Atari system as well as all the modern game systems. Evan immediately went and found a football game to play - Madden 25. He was playing with a friend of his.
Rachel, Noah and I went to a Lebanese restaurant nearby. It was pretty good. Noah add a Kafta Kabob.
Afterwards, we went to the party and we played some games as well. It was a really neat place. No coins necessary. I played the classic Nintendo for a while.
We came home and spent some time with Simon. The boys are in bed and sleeping now.
Until next time...

Cold Doggie
This morning I noticed Simon (the neighbors' dog) was whining. After dropping the kids off at school Morry and I checked on him. He didn't look good. He was laying on the ground shaking some and wasn't moving much. His tail wagged when he saw us though. I brought some food over and he ate some. We got in touch with Gabriela, who was out of town. Her brother was supposed to be taking care of Simon, but didn't come by last night. Her brother ended up taking to him to vet and it sounds like he had some kind of problems with exposure to the cold from being out last night. It wasn't that cold, but it was cold for here and the ground was wet from the rain. Poor guy.
We walked to get the boys from school and both were in pretty good moods. For some reason when we got home the whining and fighting started. We think they are both just tired. Noah fell asleep this afternoon and we had to wake him up for dinner. That caused more crying and whining.
We had homemade pizza for dinner.
In a few minutes we'll get the boys ready for bed.

Back From The Shore
Hello everyone, this is Morry.
We just returned from a week-long trip to Margate, NJ. The boys and I flew up on July 31, and Rachel flew up the next day. The boys had so much fun on the trip. They just love being in the water and as parents it was great watching them have so much fun.
My mom, Grandmom, rented a house along with my cousin, Louis and his family. Louis has three kids, Peyton (age 10), Simon (7), and Benny (2). Peyton was very good with Noah and Benny and Noah got along. Evan really enjoyed playing with Simon. He liked being with the older kids. Also, my cousin Craig, his wife Lauren, their kids Zoe and Sam were there as well as my cousin Traci and her son Drew. They were staying with Aunt Edie and their mom, Edie's daughter, Sheryl. All the kids really played well together. My cousin Allison, her husband Richard, and her daughter Avery were there the first day we were there and the second weekend.
The first day, we all went on the beach. Evan literally just started running for the water. I had to stop him as I was carrying some chairs and Noah. Evan showed no fear of the water and stayed out in the water even when no one else was out there playing with him. Noah was a bit scared at first and at first didn't like sand getting on him.
The second day, we got to show Rachel how much the boys liked the beach. Noah did much better playing in the water and getting used to the sand. That night we went over to Aunt Edie's for dinner with everyone. Craig made burgers and hot dogs and the kids played and played together.
The third day, we again went on the beach and Noah got even more comfortable playing. Evan never let up playing in the water and he started playing with this kind of water gun. You can see from the pictures later on how much he enjoyed it. That night we went to the Ocean City Boardwalk and ate at Mack and Manco's which is my favorite pizza place. Everyone went which was fun. The kids went on rides and we all had ice cream.
The fourth day, Wednesday, we drove up to see Zayde in Philadelphia. We immediately walked to lunch and had a really nice lunch outside. Zayde is a member of the Please Touch Museum so we drove over to that. There the kids played with all this car stuff, some space stuff. Noah played with water exhibits. They went on the carousel, they made us food at a pretend McDonald's. All the adults were wiped out by the time we were done. We went back to Zayde's so I could set up his new wireless router and picture frame. Evan and Noah proceeded to eat all of Zayde's fruit.
The fifth day, we just went right to the boardwalk to play miniature golf. Evan had been begging the whole time to go golfing. It was a neat golf course and the boys seemed to like it. We got water ice after that.
The sixth day was another beach day. We spent a long time on the beach continuing to play. When we got back Aunt Fran and Uncle Scott came to visit. For dinner we went to the The Crab Trap. We had to get there at about 4:30 and we still ended up waiting 45 minutes to an hour for a table.
The seventh day was the longest beach day yet. Aunt Fran and Uncle Scott came on the beach with us. Evan played with his cousins while Noah played with Aunt Fran and Uncle Scott. Evan played a bit with Uncle Scott as well. Both kids passed out at the house when we got back. When they woke up we went to Ocean City to see my friends Linda and Jeff and their kids. Aunt Fran and Uncle Scott came with us. The boys went on more rides and we had dinner on the boardwalk.
Finally the eighth day was a very short beach day and Rachel's friend Brett and his wife Meryl and baby Lauren came to see us. Then we left for the airport and flew home, completely exhausted. I think Rachel and I need a vacation.
It was a very nice time and it was very nice seeing the boys get to interact with their family and especially nice to see them play with Grandmom.
I was going to put a few pictures up, but I couldn't decide which of the 353 picture to put up. So, if you have the patience, here's a link to all of them:

Tuesday
Evan had school today. He goes Tuesday and Thursday from 9-1:30 at the Child Development Center in our neighborhood. The last few times I have picked him up he’s been reading a train book. It’s really a book on all kinds of transportation, but the last few pages has pictures of trains and what they are called, like high-speed train etc. He hasn’t wanted to put the book down the last few times, but I had to reassure him he could read it next time. Today, first thing, he went up to Wendy (his teacher) and asked for the train book again.
On the way to school I gave Evan a waffle to eat in the car since we were running late like usual. He didn’t finish it all and he put it in the outer flap of his lunch box to save to for later. I wonder if he’ll end up eating it. I’ll have to check when he gets home.
I went for a run (2mi) with Noah and Lizzy today.
I gave Lizzy a bath today in our shower. She needed one. She and Simon (neighbor dog who comes over between the fence often) have been wrestling a lot lately.
I’m going to pick up Evan in a little bit and then go to HEB with the boys to get some food for the week.
This afternoon/evening I tutor late until 7:30 so I need to try and get dinner ready or almost ready so we wont have to do much when I get home.
