Week in bullets

* My sister was here Sat through Wed
* Tuesday we took Ellis to see Ratatouille. It was his FIRST MOVIE!!! in the theater. And it was everything I had hoped it would be for him, clutching his popcorn in wide-eyed wonder.
We really loved the movie, too. Really excellent. Multivalent.
* Wednesday. First day back at summer session at PSD for Ellis in the morning. Went to Lancaster in the afternoon. Played with fabric in the evening. Spent the night.
* Spent the morning at my mom's, did a little shopping, went back home.
* Friday. In the morning went to Please Touch Museum with friend from church. Boys and moms had a great time. E and I went to Costco in the evening and then I took him to Friendly's for supper since daddy was working. He's been in a whiny state all week, no doubt in part because of a really sore bum awful diaper rash. He was getting on my nerves and I needed to change how I was feeling, so I did something fun with him, hoping that not being in the familiar spaces would clear up negativity from both of us. He was really sweet all evening. I think he enjoyed his one-on-one mom time. (Like we never get it! *rolling eyes*) There was a big group of deaf people there, but we didn't talk to them or anything. But it was kind of cool to be around people who were signing and not talking, since that is mostly what we are doing with E.
* Then I stayed up WAAAAY too late reading Harry Potter 5. I reread the whole 870 some pages in less than 24 hours. I have a headache.
* E went to Grammy's for the afternoon, and C (who did NOT have to work!) and I went to see the movie. I wish I hadn't finished the book half hour before I watched the movie. It felt so gaping with what out of those 870 some pages they couldn't include in 2 hours. As a movie we thought it was quite good, though. No spoilers here. I intend to reread HP6 over the week (instead of 24 hrs) to prepare for book 7 coming out. Starting to get excited.

Andrew, Den and me went to see Harry Potter last night. When it started I leaned over to Andrew telling him I couldn't remember what happened in the book! Which book was it now??? I get them all mixed up. We enjoyed it. Like a Reader's Digest condensed version. No time to get angry at whiney Harry! Yeah, now I want to reread BOTH 5 and 6 before Saturday. Good thing I'm not working!

Ellis clutching his popcorn in wide-eyed wonder sounds EXACTLY like Drew when we took him to it, also his first movie. Andy loved it probably more than Drew, ha.

And - the MUSEUM!!! Remember we have to meet there! I have a pass! You'll be free!
