Blargo

Well that was an expensive weekend.

The Boy had his birthday party on Saturday and while it was great fun it was tinged with great financial loss.  You see my car, MoMo, decided that it did not like having a functioning alternator and so it crapped out.  MoMo is not a cheap car, per se and so the parts therein are not cheap either.  $400 later and the car functions but still.  OW.

He loved his birthday though.  We got him Monsters Inc and Univ toys. He received blocks and planes and playdough.  More food than I could have imagined and he was a very good boy.  His cake though, was wonderful.  We had a friend make it and she did a bang up job.  The cake was two layers, white cake below, chocolate above.  She was able to make them in the style of Monsters Inc.  The bottom layer was Sully's fur and the top was Mike Wazowski.  The Boy had fingers in it before we had even sung Happy Birthday.

Additionally: The Wife has been having a fair number of contractions.  Apparently Braxton-Higgs are more common in pregnancies after the first.  She has been pulling through with a combination of perseverance and tasty foods.  Berries and melons.... cookies.  You know, the essentials.  I am not worried though, The Girl will come when she is ready, these are just warm ups.
