El Nino's Big Adventure

A tornado hit Brooklyn yesterday. What? Subway service was down. What? Mommy had decided to go into work half-day to give dad some much needed rest. He had spent a restless night with el who had a fever from teething. By the time mom was headed to work, it was announced by the bus driver that the subway system was down. Mom works about 100 blocks from home and the subway is the only feasible way of getting to work via public transportation. So mom took a sick day and stayed home with el, dad, and daug. El's fever broke in the morning and he was much better the rest of the day. No teeth have arrived yet, though.

El, daug, and mom spent last weekend visiting grandma. El met his Uncle W and Aunt G who were visiting from Richmond. Uncle W is super-cool according to el who really could not get enough of him. We saw grandpa too! A fun weekend was had by all.
