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...

Goin' Bananas
Hello everyone, this is Morry. Rachel asked me to write the blog tonight.
Last night, at about 4:45 in the morning, Lizzy woke us up. She seemed really, really agitated and scared. Normally when she does this, it's either during fireworks or there is some electronic beeping - like the beep from the smoke detectors that tell you that you need to replace the batteries in it. So I walked around the house and listened and I didn't hear anything unusual - nothing electronic that would have scared Lizzy. When I went upstairs into our room, she was still going nuts. The wind was blowing very hard, that's the only thing unusual that we noticed. It took Lizzy another 45 minutes to calm down. But it took me longer to fall asleep. The whole time Lizzy was agitated she wanted to be as close to me as possible and wanted me to pet her. The only thing that Rachel and I figured was there was some sound that neither of us could hear, perhaps from the wind coming in through a door or window.
When we actually got up for real, it was closer to 9am. We had a party to go to this morning at Goin' Bananas. This place has all this blow-up stuff, like the moon bounce, but lots of things like that. When Rachel has taken the boys there previously, Evan doesn't want to go on anything. This time, he did get on a few things. Then we saw one of the bouncy things for kids ages 3 and under. There were blow up emergency vehicles on it. Evan really enjoyed playing on that. We also put Noah down on that and he played with it as well.
When they were serving pizza for lunch, Evan wanted to go play this football game arcade game. We didn't actually put any money in it, but he kept hitting the football and saying to me that he scored a touchdown. Then we'd high five. Then we went over to skee ball. I put some quarters in and we played skee ball. Evan did enjoy that. He was able to do it pretty much.
After Goin' Bananas, we went home and put the boys down for a nap. Rachel also napped. I watched a movie called Shooter with Mark Wahlberg.
After naps, we played in the game room some, and then I set up the bike trailer so it was hooked to one of our bikes. I rode around the block with Evan in it once and Rachel did too. It was TOUGH. I don't know how far we'll be able to go once we add nearly 25 pounds more in Noah.
Speaking of Noah, we put him in the walker outside. He actually walked! It was so cute. He really got it and was walking all over the driveway. It's amazing because he just started pulling up this week and he still doesn't crawl on his knees. Is he going to just go right to walking? We'll see. He still may be slow in walking.
For dinner we went to a restaurant called the Cypress Grill. We had a coupon. It was pretty good. It's a cajun restaurant. Noah ate the entire time. Of course he made a mess under his high chair. At one point the waiter came over to our table and he said, "How are thi...Oh dear Lord!" when he saw the mess under Noah's chair. It was pretty funny.
The boys are in bed now. It seems quiet upstairs. Let's hope it stays that way.
Until next time...
