family lunch bunch!
dashiell went back to school today too! woohoo!
not 100%, but much much better than he had been doing.
L to R:
Dashiell Carlson, Kris Thinkerton, Tyler Ky, Kaden Aioki, Brennan Carlson
===============
so i have these two seniors in my algebra 2 class...good kids
jonathan and arthur. i asked them to pick a game on their schedule so that i could go watch them play.
lucky for me jonathan is the goalie and arthur is a forward - they both have a lot of playing time. we tied 4-4 against john glenn.
(but it was cold out there!)

went to the baseball parent meeting tonight.
brennan wanted to hold baby emma really, really badly! =)
i got to hold her for a while so that allison could eat her dinner and then give her spiel for the yearbook.
dashiell is on the (single) A orioles, while brennan is with nathan on the rookie rangers.

today was the first day of finals, and the first final was my prep period. lucky me!
so i headed out to 85 degree bakery, since pascale told me they are now open. i wasn't so sure it was when i drove up because there were maybe only 2 cars in front?! but no, they were open. 2 other customers inside...no line! yes!
got some baked yummy goodness, and got 2 free promo mugs to boot!
the egg tart at the bottom came out fresh when i was in there...omg. i've never had one that good. and to be super fresh? even better.of course i had to top it off with my favorite, raisin milk butter. ;-)
when i got home (after getting our taxes done), dashiell had just fallen asleep. poor thing.
later, while brennan went off to swim class (dash missed that and chess class today)
he decided to read his goosebumps book. i couldn't get him to stop! he read for about 1:40. he finally stopped after chapter 12 (i think he read 10!). it was 7:30 by that time, and then he just closed his eyes and fell asleep.
he started to get super hot again around 8:45pm or so, so i gave him some tylenol...then about 1/2 hour later he threw up. =( but he did go back to sleep, and stayed asleep till after 6am...

munchkin stayed home today. this is how i left him after giving him the cough medicine and tylenol. gave him a whole stack of books, had kleenexes next to him, a trashcan to spit out the mucous into, and water.
hopefully he's feeling better...

poor kiddo got the same cough i had.
tried all sorts of medicine...
last night gave him some hyland's homeopathic nighttime cold/cough, and it seemed to help get him to sleep. he slept from 8pm-5:30am, but it was fitful. lots of moaning...
he even sat up a few times and i thought he was awake, but he wasn't...
woke up at around 2am to give him some more so that he'd get back to sleep

was determined to get myself better to get out for a nice trail run.
the weather was nice and cool most of the way.
we even saw a couple of coyotes before heading down our favorite trail.
matt's team played against magnolia today.tough game. matthew struck out, walked, and then had a nice hit out into deep left field. (could've been caught, but wasn't!)
then we went out to eat dinner at souplantation!
headed out to big!lots for the 20% off sale. mom thought this hat was cute.
i didn't buy it for her. =p
then i caught up on the 2nd episode of sherlock that i feel asleep on last night. oops!

the closest i can come to figuring out what i get on my hands is: Dyshidrotic eczema.
but i don't think that's even right.
i'm trying to chronicle what it looks like. this is day 2. unless you count day 0 as actually me realizing it will start (which i call day 1). once it's all healed i'll put together something that shows the progression. =(

attended a seminar on the flipped classroom today...had an hour lunch, so i headed out to a nearby pho place (pho home), and had me some BĂșn (vermicelli noodles + egg rolls)
as you can see, i ate it all and nothing was left. yummy!
the boys had their awards assembly, which i wasn't able to make because i was in buena park for the seminar...i'll put the pics up once i download them! =)[update...it's 1/31/14 and i finally uploaded there. i'm so ashamed. =p]

uh...dashiell apparently has been picking at his scalp again. he's got another bald spot and a scab to go with.
[p.s. gramma: he specifically told me not to show you the picture! he was worried about you seeing it...]
wearing my carlsbad shirt today! i really like the color..sleeping so comfortably with peri by her side...

so...derek went outside with the boys this afternoon to play and ride their bikes, and lo and behold, our swing is GONE!
don't really know what happened. only that it was there yesterday, and now it's not there.
and that thing was BIG and HEAVY an NOT new! we got it over 3 years ago, i think.
i'd really like to get another one to replace it, but now i'm worried that the people that took it are simply going to come right back and take the new one, because well, they took the other one, so why not just take the new one, too?? =(

look at dashiell's amazingly well-written homework!
WOW!
if he really puts his mind to it, he sure can write neat.
on the back page, he even mistakenly wrote "storyies stories"
when i pointed it out to him, he said, "oops!" chuckled, and just erased it and fixed it.
so he told me to take a picture and send it off.
brennan was also working on his homework, too.
of course he wanted some pictures of himself sent as well, so he asked for this one and one of his pet rock.
dashiell has a pet rock project from school. i haven't taken a picture of it yet, because it was still drying (from the acyllic sealer i put on it)
maybe tomorrow afternoon, once he has his little speech ready for his oral presentation, i'll post a video! ;-)
he originally named his rock, "rocky"...but then amended it to be "angry rocky bird"
so you can guess what it might look like!
until then...
chs baseball car wash at school today!
there's matt in the picture washing derek's car (i quickly said, "hey matt!" to get this picture -- heehee)

the baseball team is having a car wash on saturday, and i asked one of my kids to help me make some posters...
hopefully they'll help attract lots of customers!
later that evening, pascale and i went to the roadrunner sports for a special event - another mother runner party with dimity and sarah
we didn't win any goodies in the raffle, but we still got lots of free swag!
