Everyone Busy on a Wednesday

This morning we walked Noah to school.

I didn't have to be at school until 12:30 since the kids had PSAT this morning.

I drove to pick up Noah from school and dropped him off at Grandma and Papa's house.

I tutored 2 students this afternoon and got home around 8pm.

While I was out, Morry took Evan to baseball practice and then stopped at Grandma and Papa's house to get Noah on the way home.

Morry and I ate leftovers for dinner when we got home.

Now the kids are getting ready for bed.

Tuesday Like a Monday

This morning Morry and Chewie walked to school with Noah.  I didn't go since I had to be at my school.

After I taught and did study hall I went to the Pink Ribbon Cowgirls lunch at Whole Foods.

I got home about an hour before it was time to get Noah, so I tried to rest a little bit.

We drove to pick up Noah since it was raining.

When we got home I left for tutoring.  I tutored 3 students and got home around 7:30.

Morry fed the kids dinner and then we made dinner, an EveryPlate pork meatballs dish, when I got home.

The boys are getting ready for bed soon.

Parent-Teacher Conference and the News

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

The boys didn't have school today for Columbus Day.  They were able to sleep in.  I slept in a bit before I had to get up and feed the animals.

With it being a teacher in-service day, the parent-teacher conferences are held.  It's not really like a one-on-one.  The child shows you their work and you can talk to the teachers for a bit.  I took Noah in and saw his work.  His main teachers like him and had really nice things to say about him.  They talked about how happy and how laid back he is and how smart he is.  I spoke to his math teacher about making sure he's challenged and we talked about having Noah in Algebra by seventh grade.  It was a good conference and Noah is doing well.

The Fox 7 Morning Show came to our house to do a follow-up on Rachel and talk about the BRCA 1 Gene Mutation.  So they came to our house and interviewed Rachel and then took some shots of us in the house including Chewie.  They had already arrived by the time I got home with Noah.

I went into HomeAway after that.  Rachel left to tutor.  The boys stayed home.

For dinner, Evan went to Grandma and Papa's.

Rachel, Noah and I had grilled chicken and couscous.

The boys are upstairs and will be getting ready for bed soon.

Until next time...

New Car

This morning I left the house before 7:30 to get to my 8:00 class, so just Morry and Chewie walked Noah to school.

After my school duties were over, I got to the car dealership around 12:30.  They have a new car for me to drive.  I turned my old Highlander in and got a new 2018 one with just 82 miles on it.  It's silver on the outside and black inside. 

I drove with Chewie to get Noah from school.

Morry was out all day with work stuff and he had an even tonight so it was just the boys and me for dinner.

We got another one of those Everyplate meal kits.  Evan chose the steak dinner, so I made that for us.  The boys really liked the meal.

Morry got home around 8pm.

Now the boys are getting ready for bed.

Here are a few pictures.

Middle of the Week

This morning we walked to take Noah to school.

After that, I took it easy at home for a little bit.

I had a phone meeting at 10am and then at 10:30am Anna picked me up to go to school.

I got home around 2:00.

I drove to pick up Noah from school and the dropped him off at Grandma and Papa's house.

Shortly after Evan got home he and Morry left for baseball practice.

Noah was ready to be picked up at about 7pm. 

When we got home I started making dinner and Morry and Evan got home just a few minutes later.

We ate dinner.  Morry and Evan had pasta.  I had fish and green beans.

Soon the boys should be getting ready for bed.

Oh, and today is the 1 year anniversary of when we got Chewie!

Back to Work

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

Rachel had gotten up very early yesterday to walk at the Race for the Cure.  So this morning, she slept in and did not come with me to take Noah to school.  Part of the reason is that Rachel knew that she was going to be going back to work for the first time.  She wanted to make sure she was well-rested for that.

A woman from the neighborhood also teaches at the Austin Tennis Academy.  She picked Rachel up around 10am to carpool in.  She also brought Rachel home at the end of the day.  Rachel was tired but it went well.

I went into HomeAway for a few hours in the morning.

In the afternoon, Rachel rested some more while I walked to get Noah.

Noah had flag football practice and Evan went to Grandma and Papa's for dinner in the late afternoon.

Rachel, Noah and I had chicken tacos for dinner.

We just got back from walking to pick Evan up.

Until next time...
