Covid 19 - Chronicles Day 5

Half way through our quarantine! I have actually enjoyed staying home with the boys. I've taken the opportunity to read and homeschooled them more consistently. Ethan seems to be very interested in books, so I've been reading some texture dinosaur ones. 

Evan doesn't seem really interestedby books, but one that he really likes is "Huevos verdes con jamón," Green Eggs and Ham, by Dr. Seuss. I have also decided to help him develop some writing skills. So, today we worked on numbers 1 through 3. He really surprised me!!! Not only is he able to follow the dotted lines to write his numbers, he actually draws the figures presented in the workbook. For instance, he drew two dinosaurs right next to the dinosaur pictures - I'm one proud mama! Ethan was so impressed and excited to see his brother draw some dinosaurs, you can hear him growling in the background. 

I'm so blessed for these days home with the kids. I'm even more humbled that their Covid19 symptoms are not so bad, aside from having snotty nose and a cough here and there - they're truly some happy and rambunctious boys.  

Feeling blessed!!!

Nuevo año 2024

Evan is about to turn 6, and still prefers to speak Spanish while also acquiring English. He’s new thing right now is saying “bruh” hahaha.  Ethan, is following his big brothers foot steps, and while he does prefer Spanish, he is more Spanglish driven then Evan.  What I’m struggling right now is controlling the use of bad words they’re uttering everyday. The ones they prefer are English: “Butt hole” “Booty head” “fucking nuggets” “fucking…” oh my, now that I’m actually writing them out, they sound awful. I have to confess, they get this from me.

First Mountain Day

Today I decided to have a single mom-son date with Evan. In the morning I told him we will be dropping Ethan to school and then him and I would go to the mountains(the pennicles). This is a celebration Betra College has once a year with students, faculty and staff. This year was my first one and we absolutely loved it. I decided to take Evan only because his older and I thought he would enjoy it much better than Ethan.  Evan's phrase of the day is: "Tan quiere go a laTaña" - Evan wants to go to the mountains.

¿Estoy Guapa?

I asked Evan: Is daddy handsome? ¿Está guapo papi?  He responded,  "está guapo papi." He is handsome. Then I asked if mami was good looking, he then looked at me up and down and then responded, "Mami no guapo, Mami ta sucio." Basically, I'm not good looking and I'm  dirty - =[ Talking about kids being truthful! I haven't taken a shower yet from my 10k run and I do look like a need a shower lol.
