no birthday for Omar

Yesterday was Omar's birthday. We had only planned for a trip to McDonalds and cake. Then he misbehaved so much that we ended up staying at home. Omar had a dinner of chicken and fish sticks and green beans. The other children got hamburgers (quicker than cooking). The adults had cake late last night. I am so sleepy this morning. DH is also so tired of this constant bad behavior. I know he is going to eventually give up and say I don't want to do this anymore..

Grandma is here

My mom comes to town and the stress takes a vacation. The kids act so much better when she is around. I am ready to invest into turning the basement room into a nice bedroom for her. There has to be a way we can rearrange the the door through the garage to get outside and . . . Frankly I'd rather moved to NC with her. anyway. It is Omar's birthday and he is acting like a little prince. Not that I am complaining. If he hadn't acted up he would have had more. Maybe next year. Headed to McD's tonight for burgers and cake. The kids will get to hang out a little late tonight and play.
