Birthday Eve
So this morning Ellis was outside with daddy, and he sat in a mud puddle. He was covered in mud. He clothes and shoes were drenched and slathered in mud. It's great to be a little boy in spring.
It got so gloriously warm. E and I went shopping. I found a fun egg playdough kit at Costco for his Easter basket.
I'm trying to avoid candy of any kind. I just don't even want to think of being around that child after eating candy. On friday, I made chocolate chip cookies with him for the first time. (it was a PMS thing.) He was out the roof hyper off of cookies; which was fine, because I had planned a long park trip immediately following during which he could work through the sugar.
Today I did something very stupid. Somewhere in the vicinity of bedtime, I gave him undiluted juice (I usually give him like 1/5 juice, the rest water). And instead of drifting off to dreamy sleepy land, he was in the alternate reality of Incontrollabibble Wiggeledom, eventually after long efforts succumbing to the desired reality of Shut eye, which is where I must go now to ensure that Crankilicous Mom doesn't take over my body tomorrow on National 'Nette Day.
Heh, heh.
I had a really nice time with my boy today.

An advantage to living in Scotland - I get to be the first to post a Happy Birthday message while you're still sleeping! At least, I HOPE you are...
Happy Birthday, Dib!
