Someone's got a birthday, I wonder who????

Today is Percy's 11th birthday....so HAPPY BIRTHDAY BOY! He's such a sweetie pie....he spent his day napping, eating, napping, drinking, napping, etc. You get the picture. I can't believe how old he's getting. Sometimes he still acts like the  little puppy we got so long ago. He was a surprise to Betsy and I. John went out and got him without our knowing....I had always wanted a golden retriever....(yes Martha, because of Einstein!) Betsy would run and play with him, jump in the leaves, sleep with him....they were best buds. And when wee one came home from the hospital, he would lay beside her while she napped....taking such good care of her. He has grown up with my kids, and I couldn't imagine him not being part of our family. Such a good boy.....

Today Betsy had her all day babysitting again. I actually felt good today, so I spent the day cleaning really well, so that I could enjoy my weekend with no "cleaner's guilt". After I was finished, I took wee one to Michael's for refils on her window art paint. Have you tried this stuff? They come in squeeze bottles and you trace a picture with the "lead" onto a piece of plastic, then when it is dry, you paint it in with the special paint. After it all dries, you peel it off the plastic and stick it to your window. They are adorable! Wee one has made at least 20 since we got home. She loves them....and so do I. It's homemade stained glass. Unfortunately, you can't save them, as they are super sticky. As a matter of fact, I learned the hard way that you can not stick then re-stick. I ruined one of her masterpieces at Easter and still haven't heard the end of it!  After that we went to Books a Million and the grocery store.

Tonight I made hamburgers on the grill, corn on the cob, coleslaw in the bowl, and bought a pie for dessert. Hey, I'm not feeling that good. I didn't have the energy to bake! Let me just say that the Marie Callendar (sp?) chocolate silk pie is wonnnnderful. It really looks like a pie from a bakery. I couldn't finish my piece, as it was too rich. My mom said that she made my birthday cake....pineapple upside down cake....oh man I love that!

Well, this is the last entry I will be writing as a 34 year old woman. I always tell my hubby on the eve of my birthday, "Enjoy it honey, it's the LAST time you will be sleeping with a 3_ year old!" (It darn well better be....)
