Covid 19 - Chronicles Day 7

Another great day! We made "ata gatos" - a house for cats.
Cats = Evan and Ethan
This was Evan's idea, so I second that motion. Before lunchtime, the kids had a video conference with their "amigos" from the CDL. They loved all the filters and enjoyed seeing each other. Evan said "Vaya Elli ata" let's go to Elis's house. I think McKenna wanted to go to my house and Eli and Quinn to McKenna's house. So, basically, everyone wanted to hang out again. What a fun first half of the day! Oh, and I even got to run 1 mile before the kids woke up in the morning. 

It took Evan 2 hours to finally go down for his nap. First, he played and played and bore himself to sleep. Ethan, on the other hand, fell asleep after 30 minutes.  They both woke up around 4:30pm. I even took a quick one-hour nap- feels great! 

After the nap, we went outside to take advantage of the little summer-like days we have leftover. They played with water balloons "bombas aqua."

P.s.
EVAN AND ETHAN are still hanging out with us. It is now 10:35pm. I guess they took a long nap. Something that just happened is that Shae said "I'm hungry" then Evan comes and tells me "Mami, papi está hambre," wow, I was so impressed. My lil boy translating for me.

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

Image
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.
