Hit the ground running...

Morning:
Gabriel was kicking and slapping me for about 30 minutes this morning, he was sleeping but moving. He finally settled his head on my shoulder and fully fell asleep. So I had to sneak out of there so he wouldn't wake up.
I got ready, washed a bottle, made coffee and headed off to work. Traffic was smooth and now I am waiting to go in. Hopefully this week my role will become clearer.
Got in, had some coffee, connected with a few folks. More reviewing and waiting.

Afternoon:
Had my lunch, took a walk, went to Costco and went back in. I finally got word of what I will be doing first. I have to go to the forum meeting on Wednesday to talk about some Medi-Cal items. So that should be fun. Karla mentioned that I may be part of the unit meeting trainings so that should be good. If I am, I am considering lining up my beard to make a new debut, something they haven't seen in some time.
After that I drove home.

Nighttime:
Put some clothes to wash, headed out to Target to get some snacks to donate to Javi's class. My wife bathed Gabriel. Now I will try to put him down. He didn't want to go down, so I left him in the crib again. It took some time but he fell asleep again on his own. Still doing laundry, already watched RAW and now waiting for the last load and may watch some tv. Tired so I may also try to sleep early. Not sure. Tomorrow is May 1st, so a 3rd of the year is gone. Countdown to my birthday is on.

Sunday Sunday Sunday

Morning:
Got up, made Javi toast. Balanced my check book and fed Gabriel some cereal. We hung out for a bit and I gave him a bottle. Cleaned up a bit, had some coffee and got his bag ready for the day. I took a shower after my wife did and we were ready to go out for lunch.

Afternoon:
We went to the Outback Steakhouse for lunch. The service was not that great but it is what it is. After we went to serramonte for a bit and grabbed some milk at Target. We came back home bbn I took a quick 15 minute power nap. My wife and Javi are at the park m while I hang out here with Gabriel.

Nighttime:
Giants won, we finished watching Anabelle: Creations. I gave Gabriel some green beans and Javi has some rice. My wife bathed Javi, I changed Gabriel and fed him, he doesn't want to sleep in the crib,  he wants to sleep on top of someone or on the bed and I am strongly against that because he has to learn to sleep in the crib.
I left him in the crib for a bit to see if he just tries to sleep. It took about 10 minutes but he stopped crying and fell asleep by himself. After that I took a shower and talked to my mom and now it's  bedtime.  Got to go to work tomorrow, should be a good week.

Infinity Wars

Morning:
Gabriel was being rambunctious this morning. He was playing on the bed and having a good time. Javi went to his abuela's room to watch Paw Patrol. I was watching tv.
I cleaned Javi and our bed,  cleaned up the living room, had some coffee and took a shower. Right now we are getting Javi a hair cut. Everything is ready to go for the drop off and movie.
We got home, grabbed some things switched out some things between the car. We dropped of the kids and headed out to watch the movie.

Afternoon:
The movie was good. It was an interesting direction they went in, but I enjoyed it. If felt like 2 to 3 different movies in 1. We had Kettle Corn popcorn, pizza and an ICEE. After the movie we got gas picked up the kids and started the drive to Pittsburg for Micaela's birthday party.
We are here and having a good time, Javi is playing around and Gabriel is enjoying the scenery. We ate, Javi won a game of musical chairs and hit the piñata.
After the cake we headed on the drive home.

Nighttime:
The drive home was good. Light traffic so it was less than normal. We got home, i washed the bottles and my packages came, one from Amazon and the other from Loot crate the Slam Crate. I liked the contents of the box, however I was not thrilled with the shirt, I think they could have done way better with it. I did get it on time, so there is that.
Gabriel didn't want to go down to sleep, Jav wanted to play with h hi mm. But now we are all sleeping in the room.

The Greatest Royal Rumble

Morning:
Gabriel woke up at 5, gave him a bottle and put him back down so I could sleep another 30 minutes. When I officially woke up, I started getting ready, put clothes to dry, washed and sanitized Gabriel's bottles and began the journey to go to work.
Today is the end of my first week as a 2913. Today is also WWE's The Greatest Royal Rumble. Going to see if I can catch some of it. Hopefully today will be a good day.
I got in and started looking over some things. I went with Amilcar to get coffee. It's a bit cold outside. The guy at Peet's gave me the regular coffee for free. We walked back to work and I checked in with a few people. 
Right now I am at my desk, reviewing training documents and watching The Greatest Royal Rumble. Later going to lunch with Amilcar, don't know where or to get what.

Afternoon:
Took a break from watching #WWEGRR and we went to the food trucks. We had SeƱor Sigsig. I had the pork California burrito and a taco. After we ate we talked for a bit and went over to Costco to walk around. When we got back I was reviewing some power point presentations for possible upcoming trainings that I may help conduct. My supervisor informed us that he would be in meetings the rest of the day and said goodbye. 
I talked to a few people before leaving for the day. Walked to my car, rushed home to switch out the laundry and then head to meet my mom, sister and kids ar El Zocalo. My wife would meet us there after.

Nighttime:
I got home with the boys and started to fold clothes, I switched out another load of clothes and gave both of them a bath. It is really hot in the house so I put on a short sleeve for Gabriel. Right now I am trying to put him to sleep and I still have one more load to go get downstairs.  My wife is still at the movies, I will shower when she gets here. She still has to go later to pick up her mom at the airport. Put both kids to bed, Gabriel woke up again and I had to put him down again. 
My wife came back from the airport. My mother in law made it back fine. Now going to bed. Got to get rest watching Infinity Wars tomorrow.

Get into the groove

Morning:
I was woken up by Gabriel as he was slapping my arm and kicking me while he was trying to get comfortable, it was 4:55 am. I got up made a bottle and I went back to sleep. When I woke up at 5:45 he was sleeping as well.
I went to get ready and grabbed my things and off I went. The drive in to work was good, not too much traffic. I was able to get good parking and now waiting. Today should be fun, going to observe a presentation and I think a conference call later. Tonight we are going to the Museum of Ice Cream.

Regulators... mount up

Morning:
Gabriel got up after 4, I fed him and put him back down. Woke up at 5:45 and started getting ready. I washed and sanitized Gabriel's bottles, game planning for later I may have to go to Costco to get toilet paper and before getting home to to Target to let laundry detergent, dishwashing soap, q-tips, milk and creamer. Maybe get some gas as well.
The drive in to work was good. Now just waiting to go in, I have a few questions that regarding the ABAWD trainings that I will send to my supervisor to see if he knows the answer.
I sent the email and it looks like we had the same understanding.  I was told to go to the forum meeting so I did that. It was fun.
After the meeting I went back downstairs to review some handouts.

Afternoon:
I went to AK Subs with Cynthia, we had a good lunch and a good conversation. After that I went back in, reviewed more handouts and I was asked to go to a presentation at 1235 Mission tomorrow, so I will be doing that. Took a break and hung out, helped out some people and took off to get gas.

Nighttime:
When I got home I took out the garbage and got the kids ready and we went to Costco. Got some much needed items and came home. Washed dishes and now I am hanging out.
Gabriel went to bed and I came back out, set up the bags for tomorrow and cleaned up a bit. About to go to bed, so sleepy

Here's a little clue for you all.. the Walrus was Paul

Morning:
After feeding Gabriel I put him in his crib, I thought I was doing a good thing so he can start adjusting to sleeping there and space for my wife and me to sleep comfortably. However, he woke up at 5:15 and was kind of falling asleep. I made him a bottle but it sounded like he was up when I left, so I have a feeling my wife will be upset with me because of that.
I got dressed, put clothes to dry and washed his bottle. Grabbed my lunch and headed to work. The drive was good, found parking. Today my new schedule starts. I have to finish reading the ABAWD materials to familiarize myself with the topic.
The morning went by quick, I reviewed all of the handouts and power point presentations, they were informative. Instill have a few questions for clarification, but for the most part I think I understand a majority of it.
This morning I did get some sad news, it seems my peer from cohort 11 may be leaving due to family issues. It made me feel really sad, I worked with her to get her through some pretty tough times and she put so much effort into her work and passed. I would really hate to see her go, but she needs to do what is best for her and I know she will be fine.

Afternoon:
Helped a few people out with some cases while reading my things. I ate some lunch my aunt had sent to me. After that I reviewed a few things and I took a walk. The sun is out but there is wind. Today has been strange with certain cases, but we work them and move on. Today is going by fast and I'm off at 4:30.
So far getting from lunch and reading, reading and reading. I helped out a few people with cases and reviewed some things with them as well. Ready to go home.
I got home around 4:45, it felt glorious!

Nighttime:
We went to get gas and pick up the kid's,  we ended up eating at in-n-out burger with my mom, sister and Dominic. After that we came home, I folded laundry while my wife bathed Gabriel. Right now I am putting him to sleep.
Well, he woke up and it took a long time to get him back to sleep. The Giants won, the Warriors won to advance to the 2nd round of the playoffs. Right now just finishing watching a show and going to bed.
