Late Nights

I woke up and made breakfast for Mario. I think this was the day I decided that I should really catch up on some sleep before it’s too late. So after I had some breakfast I curled up next to Alaethia and went to sleep. It’s amazing how long I can sleep right now. If I decided to just lie in bed all day and go back to sleep every time I got up to go pee I could totally sleep all day.

Well, sleep wasn’t too successful that day. I’d told Mom the day before that I’d take her to pay her water bill and of course she was ringing the doorbell at exactly the time she said she’d be there. Grr. So I got up, chilled out a little and got Aly dressed to go to the City Hall. Then we got some El Pato—yum!

I ate and then chilled out with Alaethia for a while. She sat next to me at the table and when I asked for a hug she leans into me and says, “You’re my beeeeest fwend!” It was the sweetest thing ever!

I picked up the boys from school. They did their homework and then I took them to get their haircut. I was going to start doing them at home, like I do Mario’s, but the boys drive me nuts. They’re constantly yelling that I’m going to cut them and squirming around, so I said nah, I’ll just take them back to Luly so she can cut their hair. I won’t be taking them back to the one near the house because I always end up having to fix their hair at home.

So I took them and wanted only Luly to do their hair but her Mom kept insisting I let her take one. Fine. I let her do Jaylen’s hair since I figured she’d cause less damage to his hair. She finished with him and disappeared. And then I notice he’s got a zigzag on the size of his face. WTF? Luly fixed it once she was done with Eenan and then Mario stopped by since he was on his way home from work.

We’re driving down our street when the boys spot the ice cream truck at the end of the street. I park the car in the driveway and let them cross. They’d been wanting ice cream–from the ice cream truck–for weeks now and we never saw the dude. So the got their ice creams, I got one for Aly, Mario and myself and came home. I ate my ice cream and took Mom to Church’s since she wanted to treat everyone. We came back and went over to Mary’s to eat. That’s when the boys got in trouble that day for fighting with each other, again, so I decided that there’d be no more video games during the week. They acted like their lives were over, naturally. But they need this. Those games are seriously screwing them up. And that’s because they’d only play for 30 minutes a day!

Mario and Adan started jogging again and Mario got home and ate. I hope they keep their jogging up after I have the baby and can start exercising.

Jorge and Mona came by and then Aide and Belle came over. Adan, Jason, Mirella and Brianna were outside, having an impromptu bar-b-q. We sat around talking inside about pregnancies (everyone’s waiting for me to pop LOL) and then we all went outside when Alaethia and Belle got a little too excited. We stayed outside laughing and taking pictures and watching the girls play. The boys had already gone to bed since around 9am. We were out till around 11:30 and then I came inside with Alaethia because she was getting tired. I really need to stop staying up so darn late! I’ll regret this when two little girls are keeping me up till 4am.
