WonderWeekend

Willie the WonderKid has had a very exciting weekend so far!  A failed bedtime experiment on Friday night led to a very sleepy Wm on Saturday.  But that didn't stop him from having a GREAT visit with Grandma and Papa.  Including a trip to Jeni's for ice cream!!  Wm, once again, was up and down all night last night (leading to a VERY grumpy Mom and Dad), but, again, seemed un-bothered by this.  Mimi and Guy came over to watch Wm while Mommy and Daddy went for a hike at Highbanks.  Unfortunately, Steve had 2 donut holes and a coffee for breakfast, so got all shaky during the hike and had to sit down on a bench for a while to pull it together.  We stopped on the way home and grabbed some food so that Steve wouldn't collapse.  Wm is currently sleeping, but we are already plotting what to do with him when he wakes up to take advantage of the super sunny, warm day!

At dinner Friday night, I explained to Wm what a knock knock joke was and then go, "Hey, Wm, knock knock!"  He answers: "Who's there?"  I say: "Boo."  He says, "Boo who?"  I respond: "Don't cry, it's only Mommy!"  He goes, "No, Mommy, I was saying boo WHO, not crying like boo HOO."  So then I was all, "I know, Wm...see, that's the joke - it's like a play on words, sort of like..."  Wm interrupts: "Hmph.  I wasn't crying. It's stupid."  But Mimi's bunny fart joke was a BIG hit. Note to self: Wm is a fan of fart jokes.

Another successful homemade product!!  This morning I made lip gloss; both tinted (for moi) and untinted (mostly for moi, but also for Steve).  It turned out GREAT and was incredibly easy!!!  I am also holding out hope that I may have perfected a deodorant recipe.  I tested it on the hike and I am stink-free.  Now I just have to keep wearing it for a couple weeks to see if it irritates my skin at all.  If it doesn't, I am declaring victory!!!
