Papa and Bay went to the Dell Diamond to see a baseball game. Blue cotton candy was yummy!

From about 8pm all the way to 6 this morning!!! Woohoo! Let’s hope he can “repeat”. 🙂

The weekend is upon us, and we have a couple neat things planned. Saturday morning we are planning on heading downtown to check out the new Whole Foods “Landmark” store, which just opened yesterday. I saw a little bit of it on the local morning news show, and it looks awesome! It’s actually right across the street from the old Whole Foods store. I’ll post some pics later. Whole Foods has another store in North Austin, which we go to often, in fact it’s right on my way home, so I stop there to pick up groceries sometimes. They are actually moving to a new, bigger location in North Austin, although the site has not been made public yet, at least I haven’t found out where it will be. (if you know, please let me know!)

After the morning supermarket expedition, Bay and I will be going to the Dell Diamond in Round Rock to see some college baseball in the Round Rock College Classic. Rain is in the forecast, but hopefully it will hold off until the afternoon or evening. Bay has never been to a real stadium before, so it should be cool. The Dell Diamond is a really nice stadium, just like a major league ballpark, but on a smaller scale. The home team is the Round Rock Express, a Triple-A farm team for the Houston Astros. Later in the year, I want to go see the Dodger Triple-A team, the Las Vegas 51’s, when they come to town.

Sunday, we have no plans, but I’m sure something will come up. Hopefully it will be a big cooking day, with all the loot we score from Whole Foods on Saturday. I guess I should start looking for some nice recipes to try. 🙂

I went home for lunch today, turned on ESPN, and watched the NY Mets play the Washington Nationals. It was great.

I am a really deep sleeper. If I am suddenly awoken out of a deep sleep, especially if I am dreaming, I will feel sick. A little nauseous in fact. I feel hot as if I have a fever, a little headache, and my stomach will feel turned upside-down. I bring this up because we are woken up a few times a night by the intense crying of a 10-month old baby. Man, Koa can really eat. It’s my job to stumble out of bed, put my glasses on, go downstairs and prepare a bottle of formula. Then I return to the bedroom, where I hand off the duties to Mariko, who holds the bottle. Sometimes I change Koa’s diaper. When I am done, I climb back into bed, pull the covers over me, and shut my eyes. That particular moment actually feels awesome. As I drift off to sleep again, I am in such a state of bliss that the wail of the 20 lb. banshee sounds as soothing as an angel’s lullabye.
