Bike Ride with the Boys

So, last night, Evan did not have a pull up on and we kept his gate open. Around 1am I heard knocking. I thought Evan was at his door. When I came in the hallway I saw Evan knocking on Noah’s door. Evan seemed kind of disoriented and told me he needed to go to the bathroom. He went and I put him back to bed. He slept until about 8am.

After I got Evan and Noah dressed and fed I took them on a bike ride, for the first time. When we first got the bike trailer I took them around the block, but this time we really went for a ride. I only rode about 4 miles. I know that doesn’t sound like much, but when you are pulling a trailer with 2 boys weighing around 62lbs, and on hills, that’s quite a workout. We stopped at a playground at a school. The boys played on the equipment, we had an apple break, and then we got back on the bike and came home. Evan and Noah did pretty well in the trailer. Noah cried some of the way because he didn’t like wearing a helmet.

When we got home all of us were pretty hot. It was overcast today and slightly cooler than normal, but we were all pretty sweaty. I made smoothies and then we ate lunch.

After lunch, Evan and Noah took really good naps.

When, Evan got up from his nap, his sheets were all wet. This is the first accident he has had since potty training week. Maybe he forgot he had underwear on?

For dinner we had taco pasta.

After dinner, Morry and I took turns playing Wii Sports Active (an exercise game) while the boys played.

We just gave Evan and Noah baths and put them to bed. Evan is wearing Pull ups tonight, and we are leaving his gate open. We’ll see what happens tonight.

Playgroup at the Pool

Evan slept until about 7:20am this morning.

We met playgroup at the pool this morning. I thought it would be tough watching both Evan and Noah, but it wasn’t too bad. They stayed in the baby pool area. Around noon it cleared out at the pool and that was a lot better. We had snacks. Evan had a popsicle.

For lunch I made the boys and me smoothie. Since they had a lot of snacks at the pool they didn’t want anything else to eat for lunch.

Noah took a nap, but Evan did not.

While they were napping (or supposed to be napping) I tried the EA Sports Active wii game for the first time (thanks Mom, Dad, and Grandma). I had to wait until today since I wasn’t supposed to do any exercise for a few days after having my toenail procedure. I just did a little of the game, but so far it seems good.

For dinner, we went to ZPizza downtown. We had a coupon, of course, from Restaurant.com. I got a $25 gift certificate there for only $4. We had a big meal and have leftovers tomorrow all for $10 total.

We just gave Evan and Noah baths and they are in bed now. We are going to try leaving Evan’s gate open tonight so he can go to the bathroom on his own if he wakes up in the night. We’ll see how it goes.

So, I just went to check on him and Evan was in the hallway lying down. I just put him back to bed.
