Turkey Butt came home late Friday night. Daddy Dearest had been making sure the Wii was working properly for a large portion of the day. He was very thorough in his check and was confident that all aspects were functioning in the proper fashion. It was set up so that we would ask Turkey Butt to turn on the TV for us and 'tah-dah' there was the Wii. It worked wonderfully! First words, "I got a Wii!", then "Well, well, well". It was so darn funny and he was so darn excited. So we spent a couple of hours playing Wii and he was completely exhausted by the time we were finished. Man, I missed him so darn much. He was glad to be home. Turkey Butt was privileged enough to sleep between myself and Daddy Dearest that night (and the next one), so his aunt and uncle could have the bunk beds. Man those two don't realize how lucky they are!!
Saturday, we woke to Memaw setting off the alarm at 7:30. The dog wanted out and Memaw's house doesn't have an alarm. Nothing gets ya up and at 'em like racing down the stairs to shut off your alarm first thing in the morning. From that point on, Wii was on the brain. Turkey Butt was allowed to play for a few minutes until it was time to get ready for the party. Woah, the party! I can honestly say, a good time was had by all! Everyone bowled and ate pizza and played games. I really think it was a success! My friend Christine has one of the cutest kiddos ever and as you can see, she just hates to have her picture taken! 
love this kiddo!
check out my shoes, ignore my messy dress ;o)
Sweet Pea toddled all over the place (in her new cute shoes, of course) and had a great time. She wanted to bowl, too! She had pizza and left early with the grandma and aunt and uncle. She was asleep before the rest of us made it home. Her nap lasted almost 3 hours, ya think we wore her out??? Turkey Butt opened his presents when we got home, and man the kiddo made a haul! Movies, games, water gun (story to follow), cars, the kid was in heaven. The night ended early in this household. All the lights were out by 9:30.
TB and his new water gun
TB took this picture of me!
TB had his weapon and I had mine, the hose. Needless to say a battle followed. I drenched him good, he barely got me. It was pretty cute, he'd hide on the other side of the car and try to shoot over it to get me. We had fun. As you can see, I was clearly the winner, I had a good time making sure he didn't get me...I hate to be wet! He became a little upset when I wouldn't trade with him. He tried to make new rules when his gun was empty, "that's how we play, momma". I don't think so, Homey don't play that~

Today, the fam left before the kids and I got up. Turkey Butt was a little sad, as he has spent the last week with all of them, but of course he wanted to play Wii and all was well. Daddy Dearest left town AGAIN for the week. He'll be home Thursday and I'm hoping this will be the end of the weeks away for a while. The kiddos and I just hung out today, Sweet Pea took a nap that was almost 3 hours long (poor baby, still trying to catch up). I watched the latest Harry Potter Movie to catch me up so that I can continue reading Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. They really need to hurry up and get on the movie for Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. I really hate waiting and I'm not sure I can make it 'til November. After nap, we headed to my least favorite place, Wal-Mart, for milk. I hate this place because I can never get out of there without spending at least $2o. I went in for ONE thing and that ONE thing cost me $23 & some-odd cents. Damn it!
As much as I have missed having Turkey Butt at home, I have not missed his whining and arguing. He was sitting on the couch next to me playing Wii (of course) and I was tending to Sweet Pea instead of paying attention to him, he needed something instantly and proceeded to tell me "Uhhhh, Mommy, you're making me REALLY angry!" Well, that proceeded to make me really angry and thus his playing Wii ended for the day. Maybe tomorrow when we can have some patience??? We have also put a new rule in place (well, I have, DD isn't here to help enforce it, so we'll hear his thoughts later), TB must play with the dog he HAD to have for at least 20 minutes before he can play Wii or computer for 1 hour. I am the time keeper and when you're almost 6, it's pretty easy for your Mommy Dearest to make 20 minutes turn into 30 and 1 hour turn into 45 minutes. I just get tired of arguing with him, he wanted the dog, but won't take any of the responsibility. Not like I don't have enough crap on my plate that I should have to take time out to play with the dog I said we DID NOT need (can ya tell I'm a little bitter??). Anyways, I like the dog, she's ok and all that, but TB needs to needs to play with her. So, I'll let you know how this plan works!
We ended that day with TB and myself watering the flowers (Sweet Pea crashed at 7:30). TB brought out his new water gun and was entertaining himself, when all of a sudden, he shot me upside the head. I swear he is his father's child and I am paying for his raisin'......
