Happy birthday boys!!

Well it's here FINALLY!! Luke's 21st and Evan's 3rd.

I've not seen Luke at all today, but have spoken to him on the phone, he wont be up here until Saturday evening, it's dreadful when work gets in the way of a social life isn't it..WELCOME TO ADULTHOOD lol....Have finished the album (sort of, still have 3 or 4 pages to put in, but the bulk is done!) and if you look closely you will see his birthday present in there too!! yes, scrapped it already..i've put it in to see if he 'really' looks at the album or just skips through it, if he doesn't notice the page, then he doesn't get his presents until he looks properly..yes..i'm a tease LOL....

Saw the littlest man today, WELL what a drama, i was ever so excited about his present..he opened it..smiled, face dropped..NOOOOOOOOO he wailed, burst into tears, and ran out of the house screaming. I was mortified, Tina took off after him, he was shaking, I wanted to take the present back, but she assures me he will like it when Keiran is around..What was it?? a Cptn Feathersword costume...apparently, he was fine until Keiran pushed it into his face and traumatized the poor child..Then to add insult to injury, Keiran, hands on hips looks at me and say..WELL NANNA, now you need to go and buy a PROPER present dont you..then adds..Can i have the suit??..needless to say, i'm still fragile over the whole ordeal and have overcompensated all day..Bought him a happy meal for lunch, took him to toyworld where he could choose whatever he wanted and he chose some little people toys (bargain 1/2 price) and a little spiderman football..I'm going to buy him some more stuff tomorrow to take to his party...Poppy met us for lunch, Evan i'm pleased to say, was very excited to have a happy meal (i can do some things properly) and ate all his burger and fries and even some of Pop's! Then it was back to Nanna's for an imprompu birthday cake with one candle, which he blew and blew and blew!!
