HAPPY B'DAY to my son!!

He's 12 today and he's 5'5"! Only an inch away from me and boy does he make me feel old!

So his grandpa - bless his heart - did come over late morning and took mr 12 and miss 14 with him...they came back home a few hours later - turned out they went somewhere over the Nth Shore to 'luge'...they had a blast!! They also came home with a HUGE box of both Paddle Pop ice creams and Cornetos (grandpa's g.f's sister works at Tip Top, so great - more temptation!!)

Anywhoo...mr7 was quite upset he didn't get to go with his big bro, so hubby and I took him and miss 9 to the mall where they had a kids holiday program, today they were making masks, so they both did their masks, took a good half hour to complete - they loved it! Forgot to take my camera :( Miss 9 (whose b'day was last week) had $50 of b'day money to spend, which she chose to spend on a $28 fur-real puppy...and $4 on stickers. I gave Mr 7 $20 to spend, which he chose to spend on a $16 wrestling set...it's been keeping him occupied all afternoon!!

Hubby started work at 6pm, my bro started work at 8pm, so he's just taken us to Burger King to get b'day boys b'day meal lol. He just bought his van 2 weeks ago now...I went along for the ride.

Actually quite funny...it's a white van with expensive white rims...tinted windows...a real 'boy surfer' looking van - except the driver is Samoan LMAO. I noticed he was getting lots of looks - not sure if it's cos there aren't many vans with such flash rims and tinted windows, or if he just looked out of place driving what a 'surfer' should be driving lol.

Anyway, there is a seat in the middle of the back...and get this...a single couch LMAOooOo...the proper seat fold forward and away...so he can put a mattress in he says LMAO.

So yeah...that's been our day :) Might do some baking - even though last night was a bit of a disaster lol. This time I'll take my time and read and re-read the recipe so I make sure I get it right lol.

Oh and TMI - I got my period this morning - feeling yucky for it too...and my gorgeous suntan is (has been for the past couple of days) peeling something mean!! Ewww....my back, back neck and shoulders...at least the colour is even now...completely stuffed my tan line up when I was in Samoa at the end of last year...ended up with 'singlet straps' so when we went fishing a couple of weeks ago I wore a boob-tube and evened that all up...so here I am...even put peeling LOL.
