Happy Birthday, Stuart!

Bonnie wanted to do something for Stuart’s birthday, but knew that he didn’t want anything big.  So some of us went over there to help celebrate, only he didn’t know it, at first.  Bonnie had given a set of keys to Robert and Julie, we arrived with Jennifer and Jesselyn (in moo moo cow jammies) a little while later.  Dave had to stop to get some beer because apparently my idea of getting Stuart a balloon didn’t fly.  We didn’t want to turn on any lights for fear he’d see them, so we huddled around in the dark, eating fruit.  Brandon still needs to learn the concept of “You touch it, you take it.”  Currently, Brandon is under the impression that “You touch it, you take it, you eat some of it, then you spit it out and touch something else.”  Yuck.  Jesselyn was up on “stage” singing nursery rhymes, and was hamming it up for the crowd.  She was pretty good – no fear, knew the songs well, and even took requests!
So after going out for dinner, Bonnie was the first to come in.  We tried to coordinate where we’d stand, what we’d say, but fortunately, Stuart gave us plenty of time.  In fact, he took so long in coming in, we thought maybe he’d figured something out.  I was afraid he’d go around the house, enter the back door and scare us!  But he was looking at something in the garage, so when he finally got inside, Bonnie turned on the lights and he was greated by, “Surprise!”  I believe his reaction was, “I’m outta here” and he closed the door. 
He was a good sport about being surprised, even though he had been suspecting Bonnie would surprise him at the restaurant, like on her birthday earlier this year.  But no, she assured him he could pick the restaurant.

Many ladies think that such sildamax would buy canada levitra burn out their purse, but they are wrong. We could also be content with just sitting on the porch talking, or cialis sales canada maybe reading a good book. Afterwards, we tried to entertain the kids.  Stuart and Bonnie had a puzzle and car set, which kept them entertained for a little while.  They would taking turns – sharing nicely and then getting mad at each other.  Just like old times.  Then we put on a movie about two monsters, trying to scare kids for power to run their city.  I wasn’t sure how Brandon would do, knowing that he’s a scaredy cat.  He was watching with Julie, with Jennifer and Jesselyn on the couch.  The opening scene could be a bit frightening, but we kept trying to convince him it was funny.  It worked!  But Jesselyn wasn’t having it.  She was scared.  So then we tried a DVD of shorts, put out by the production company of that made the other film.  We tried to find the lightest, non-scary movie, but she was still scared.  So she and Jennifer went to take a walk, while we watched the ghostlight with Mater.  So it was now just Brandon and Julie on the couch.  I was still worried how Brandon would do, because there were some scary parts.  He’s only reaction to the scary parts was to make his scary face, but then he’d immediately relax his face when things were good.  He cycled through his scary face and back to his normal face whenever he was scared.  It was the funniest thing!  No squealing, no whining, just the face.  Then Jesselyn came back and we were worried how she would do.  Jennifer convinced her it wasn’t scary, and she was able to watch the last part of it. 
We had cake, which made everyone happy.  We all sang the birthday song, which Brandon had been singing to Stuart all day long, but got a little bashful come game time.  He and Jesselyn even got to split their own piece of cake, which enabled both of them to stay up extra late!  The grown-ups played poker, while the kids and moms watched Mulan and ran around, literally.  In circles.  Again, they had some sugar to burn.  We got through Mulan and started watching the Incredibles, to which Brandon said, “That’s Incredible!”  One by one they dropped like flies and came to join the movie-watching.  It came down to Stuart and Dave, and Dave had this teeny stack of chips.  I was trying to get Brandon to go to sleep – even changed him into the fire truck jammies, and brought the Mickey pillow.  Jesselyn and Jennifer had to go home, so they could wake up this morning to pick up Jonathan. 
I didn’t get to see Dave’s comeback of the century, but somehow he managed to dethrown the birthday boy.  Too bad Dave didn’t get the same memo that everyone else did to concede to the birthday boy.  So we all hung out together in the living room, until Brandon fell asleep doing the usual toss and turn every which way on Mickey until he got comfortable.  Stuart noticed Brandon’s favorite position – rump-up and commented that it doesn’t seem like his bottom shouldn’t be lower than his head.  When we were ready to go, Dave picked up Brandon, pillow and all.  He was so out of it, he didn’t even notice we were on the freeway in the dark.  A no-stress drive home!
