On Saturday Mayra decided that we needed to go shopping. Whopee(sarcasm by the way)! We needed to buy clothes for the boys who will be starting Matthias again next Monday. Matthew's first experience with controlled academia. I'm not too thrilled about him starting school so soon. He has no idea that he will be in school for at least another 20 years.(Doctorate, at least). Poor lil guy...but atleast i hope he'll learns something. Anyways, we went to Stonewood mall in the city of Downey, which is definitiely more desirable than the city I currently live in. We shopped at several stores and bough our children pants, shirts, shorts, and even posturepedic pillows which I fell in love with when I bought Mayra one from JC Penney.
The highlight of my day was buying Matthew my 3 year old a dinosaur balloon which was a bit different than your conventional floating balloon. This balloon was actually filled with carbon dioxide and it came with little legs and a leash in which Matthew took pride in walking. He walked the entire mall like a damn proud owner of a new dinosaur. Other lesserly children watched in envy because his dumb father gave away $5 for a silly balloon. But it's ok, Matthew was happy and that's what matters. We even got home and he tucked him away. Matthew named him Beauty....of couse after his mother :)
Later that evening we went over my moms house, an entire 20 yards away, and ate hot dogs with the fixings. It was nice, relaxing and it prepared us for a chilling evening at home. Good times. lol
OC Fair, once again, Mayra's idea. I had a softball practice this morning and I pulled a calf muscle. My feet were kinda tired too. But I was a trooper and we ended up going with Grandma angie, Matthew, Jakob and Mayra to the fair. Nathan is stil lwith his dad. Upon arrival we quickly learned that Matthew was unable to get on any of the rides as his broken arm was a disqualifying factor. He was ok with it. There were plenty of other things to see. We spent a solid 4 hours there before Idecided that was enough. On the ride home we insisted that Matthew speak Spanish because we don't want him to forget it. Being bilingial is definitely a plus. We're going to try to incorporate more spanish into his life.
