Stickman Wars
Its overcast and rainy today. It sucks. However the kids seem to have invented a game that they like: Stickman Wars.
Diva
Ella insisted in wearing the same Diva shirt to school again today. This never happens. She has a hard time being convinced to wear PJs two nights in row let alone going out in public in the same outfit two days in a row. She loves her new horribly fitting shirt!!!

Tonight was RAW night!
Darby showing off his Cena head and wrist bands!
Declan in his new Big Show T-shirt.
Dad, I think I sharted.
Its not exactly something you want to hear but I did. Darby explains that he thought he just had to fart but a little bit of poop came out! Well, he's cleaned up now after a shower and is in a new set of briefs.
We got Slurpies today after school. I wanted to get a The Miz cup and Ella obliged - what a sweetie - she's AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWESOME! I'd never done the slurpie thing before but the kids had been begging for weeks.
A package came today and it was greeted with joy. The WWE was having an online clearance sale so I ordered Ella a $4.99 Divas long sleeve shirt. Unfortunately, its way to big but it doesn't seem to phase her - I'm the only one upset. She loves it! She'll grow into it - perhaps I will get Gramma to wash it :) until then its a nightie! (is that how you spell that?) Darby got Sheamus and Cena T-shirts for super cheap and Declan got a Big Show shirt for $12.99 and it came with a DVD!!! (which I squirreled away for Christmas).
BTW: Ella didn't go to school today.

Sick Day
Well Saturday didn't go as planned. Ella was complaining about her stomach ALL day. She never threw up but she carried a bucket with her wherever she went just in case - she kept saying that she was very close to throwing up but it never happened. She felt hot but she didn't have a temperature. I'm hoping tomorrow is better.
Darby was supposed to spend his birthday money today at Wal*Mart but he had so much trouble with it. In the end I split the cost of Thor with him. The games he really wants for the Wii are not out yet: W'12 and the new Zelda game. Of course he does want certain games that mom won't let him have, a-hem, Call of Duty Black Ops, a-hem.
Declan and Darby have gone over to Brett's for the night. Last night was a big sleepover here: Jonah, Brett, Thein and Austin so I am grateful (and I think Ella is too). I've learned that one of them snuck a movie over that I wish wasn't watched. As well the boys watched one of my movies they should not have watched. I have to try better at staying up later than the kids during sleepovers. Still, I wonder where the kids got that movie - it is completely inappropriate. I'm not for censoring at all what the kids watch but if it is a mature themed film I'd rather be there with them to explain things - they waited to I was asleep! The biggest problem is that Declan is sensitive to scary movies and has nightmares so fortunately it wasn't a horror movie they watched. Darby's language is improving but he still isn't the angel he once was - that potty mouth demon will be exorcised. Films with swearing don't help that situation.
I want to try and find "Something Wicked This Way Comes" to watch around Halloween but I think it's unlikely to show up in Powell River. I'm debating as to whether or not to get it from Amazon.
I hope Ella is better tomorrow.

Eventful Sunday
Well it was a strange day. I slept in and I rarely do...I was awoken by Declan yelling in my window...which has never happened before either. Declan came over. Brett came over, Thein came over. Then Darby came over. Then Misha and Ella arrived. Then Declan, Brett Thien and Darby left. Then Darby came back. Then Ella and Misha left. Then Declan, Brett, Thein, Brett came back. We had a wicked game of Super Mario Strikers Charged. Then everyone left. Then I get a call that Declan is in the hospital (with Marla, Ella and Darby). I go pick up Darby and Ella. I didn't have any food for the kids because I wasn't planning on it so I took them to McDonalds - its closed. Dariy Queen is closed. A$W is open - phew. Misha comes over. Then Brett and Thein. Ella is blasting music and the boys have another game of Strikers going. Eventually, Declan is back from the hospital so we go up and see him. No stitches for the nasty gash he got. I go home alone. Then Declan shows up, then Darby, then Thein and Brett. Eventually Jonah phones then comes over - wicked game of Strikers strikes up again. Ella comes over. Then Misha. Music is blaring again - woo hoo Vampire Weekend and Stevie Wonder. I was feeling superstitious. Eventually they have to back for dinner. And I am home alone. Sea Hawks lose but at least the Jets win. Dinner done and Declan pops over again. And Jonah. They watch football with me. They leave and I am home alone again. My house is a mess!

School
We finally find out what classes the kids are in tomorrow!
They've been in school for two days so far. I know, I know, it makes no sense.
Today had a bit of controversy: Darby was apparently teased at school with the help of his older brothers and his friends. He swore he was never going to go back to school again! I'm hoping its all forgotten about tomorrow. It was certainly tough to deal with after school.
