I think I am just fine with 4 kids. Really, I would be happy with one more, but seriously, I will not have any more children.
At this moment, there are 7 girls age 8 in our toy room. It went from yelling, screaming, running and fighting to whispering mean things to each other just loud enough to be heard. They are supposed to be watching a movie… Alvin and the Chipmunks but that obviously isn’t entertaining enough to make them hush long enough to see any part of it. Johnny went to bed, which was a huge relief. These girls carried him around like a doll, put him in a chair and carried him around calling him the king, and were feeding him things he normally doesn’t eat just so he would like them. He was so good tonight though… except when he knocked over their Jenga game. But geez, he is 2! (well, not even yet) I didn’t give a crap that he knocked it down… they would understand if they had a little sibling… if they don’t, too bad. This is his house!
Mason had to be dragged out of there just a bit ago. All the girls are either flirting with him (which you know what that means with little kids… hitting, teasing, etc) or they are just being snotty to him. He isn’t too pleased that he can’t watch the movie and has been banished to the adult room, but oh well. I really don’t need one boy to 7 girls getting into it right now.
One girl has never spent the night anywhere before and is terrified of dogs. Can you think of a better person to have at my house??? Really, can you? I am hoping we can get through the night without anyone crying, anyone wanting to go home, parents having to be called, anything broken… house or people, and with some sanity left. I think the sanity is almost gone, but so far so good with everything else.
Mason will NOT be having a sleepover for his birthday party. I say this now and I mean it. Girls are bratty, snotty, and mean, but boys are rough, hyper, and loud. I think my eardrums have had a beating with the girls… boys will be too much. I will convince him to have a bowling party, a jump house party, or something else. They will not be sleeping here! I may have to bribe him or something but it will be worth it! I still have 12.5 hours to go with these girls. I think I will have to rest tomorrow!
Anyways, my cake was a hit. It was delicious! Mackenzie got some cute gifts and some stuff that I am not sure she likes or not. She is happy though. This is the pic of Mackenzie’s cake I made and her little setup. I think I did good for never having made a cake before!!!!
