Noah and I went to to storytime at the library today. Noah likes sitting on my lap on the carpet. Some kids sit on their parent's lap, but others go right up to were the librarian is reading the book. The craft for today was making bears out of plates. The kids glued on parts of the face as well as cotton balls and then decorated them. They also passed out bird seed for everyone and gave kids more than one bag if they had a sibling at home. Noah was very excited to tell Evan about his bird seed.
After the library Noah and I went to HEB.
We came home and had lunch and then Noah went to Cole's house for a little while.
Noah was so excited to be at Cole's. I've never seen him get out of the car so quickly. The boys had fun together.
Noah and I picked up Evan from school and then came home.
Morry played wii with the boys before dinner. For dinner I had fish and Morry had Buffalo wings.
We just got the boys ready for bed and Morry is reading to them now.

Drenched
We got a good rain today. It was misty most of the day.
Noah and I went to the library for storytime. I hadn't been to this particular library for storytime in a while, but someone recommended it recently. As we were parking it started to pour down rain. Noah and I got soaked. It wasn't that far to the building but there were puddles everywhere and my feet got all wet too.
Noah seemed to enjoy storytime. The librarian read a few books. One, Noah and I liked a lot. It's called Pete the Cat. "Pete the Cat goes walking down the street wearing his brand new white shoes. Along the way, his shoes change from white to red to blue to brown to WET as we steps in piles of strawberries, blueberries and other big messes! But no matter what color his shoes are are, Pete keeps movin' and groovin' and singing his song...because it's all good."
After the librarian read, the kids made hats (one book was about hats). The kids could pick from clown hats or crowns. Noah picked a crown. He decorated it and wore it all day.
Noah and I came home and had lunch. Then, Noah went to Cole's house for a playdate. They had a lot of fun.
From there, we picked up Evan from school and then went over to Jax's house for a playdate for Evan. Jax's mom invited us to stay and hang out. Noah didn't want to stay. He wouldn't even come in the house. He said he wanted to take a nap at home. So, I dropped off Noah at home with Morry and went back to Jax's house.
For dinner we had tacos, salad, and cornbread.
The boys are in bed now.

Day 2
Morry walked Evan to school this morning. He said Evan seemed a little tired this morning. Drop off went well though.
Today, it was just Noah and me. It's been a while since we spent the day together. Maybe this will help some of his behavior problems.
We met the Moms Club playgroup for kids Noah age at Barnes and Noble. There was storytelling at 10:30 and then Noah played at the train table.
After that we went to Newflower (called Sunflower now) and picked up a few groceries. Noah insisted I buy bean sprouts.
When we got home I folded laundry while Noah played then we had lunch together. Noah ate all of the bean sprouts I bought today.
We walked to pick up Evan. I took a few short cuts and it only took 15 minutes to get there. We we were there early and talked to some other parents and siblings. Noah's friend Ella was there, but Noah was being really shy and covering his face with his hat. When Evan's class came out Noah ran up to see Evan.
Evan was in a good mood, but tired. He sat in the stroller the whole way home.
Once we were home, he and Noah had a good time playing together for a little. Then, I had them have a quiet time for a little bit. Noah stayed in the guest bedroom and Evan was in the game room.
For dinner we had tacos. Noah is still eating his food. We all finished a while ago and cleaned up but he's still messing around eating/playing.
Soon we'll go upstairs and get them to bed.

School and Shopping
Morry worked from home today. He wasn’t feeling well and didn’t get much sleep last night. The boys slept late and woke up around 9am. We were a little late to Evan’s school. When we walked in one of the girls ran up to him and said, “Hi Evan!” and gave him a big hug. It was very cute.
I took Noah with me to library. It just so happened there was a story time about to start so I took Noah to the story time. Not even 5 minutes into the story time Noah got antsy and we walked out. I checked out a few books and we left.
Then, we went shopping. I bought Noah some shoes. All we have are Evan’s old shoes and they don’t fit him well since they are pretty worn out. I also got a shirt for Noah and a Toy Story book for Evan. I happened to see the Toy Story book when I was checking out and couldn’t pass it up.
At home Noah took a short nap. Then we ate lunch and picked up Evan. When we were getting in the car I pointed out Noah’s new shoes. Even was very interested since they had Thomas the Train on them. I told Evan I bought him a new book and it was on his bed waiting for him at home. Then, he asked if I went shopping and what else I did while he was in school.
I put Evan and Noah down for naps but neither one wanted to nap. Noah eventually fell asleep, but Evan did not nap.
Blanca came at 4:00 so I could tutor. I got home about 8:00.
Morry took Evan and Noah to McDonalds for dinner. He asked Evan where he wanted to go for dinner and he picked McDonalds. Morry said both boys were well behaved and had a good time.

Lots of tutoring
Luckily, we didn’t get any ice last night. Morry was able to drive to work this morning without any problems. It was really cold outside though.
I took Noah and Evan to the library this morning. They have a storytime there on Wednesdays at 10:15. I thought we would try it out. Neither of the boys seemed very interested in the librarian. They were more interested in the other kids and books. Noah kept trying to crawl over to someone else’s stroller that was next to us. He just wanted to play with the wheels. After the storytime we picked out a few books and a kid’s airplane movie to bring home.
For lunch I made quesadillas for Evan and cut gingerbread man shapes out of them hoping Evan would eat them. No such luck. Noah ate a lot of little pieces of quesadilla for both lunch and dinner. At least the quesadillas went in someone’s belly.
At 1:30 Blanca arrived and the homeschool Algebra II student came over and stayed until 4:00. Well, he actually stayed a little past 4:00. I told his mom I had to leave the house by 4:00 to meet another student, but for some reason she couldn’t get there in time. At least Blanca was in the house to wait with him until his mom came. At 4:30, I tutored another student for an hour.
I got home around 6:00. We ate chicken and rice soup I made earlier in the day and some leftovers from the other nights. Evan didn’t eat much, but Noah ate a lot ( like always). Noah had his cereal mix, baby food jar, quesadillas, tomatoes, a few pieces of ham, banana, and dried fruit.
After dinner I made cranberry apple crisp. I was in the mood for it. We’ll eat some in a few minutes when I get off the computer.
Evan and Noah are in bed, but it still sounds like they are still awake. Both have runny noses now… it looks like another cold is coming. ugh
