We're supposed to go to Dayton to visit my parents for Aleks' 6th birthday on Saturday. We have big plans that Anna, Jonas, and Lavinia will all go down on Friday night and spend the night with us there, having a lovely little sleepover plus the party the next day. They came last year, but didn't stay the night. Aleks was vomitous Sunday and Monday, but felt a lot better on Tuesday. Of course now Bastian has it. I'm dosing myself up with Emergen-C and oscillococcinum in an attempt to avoid it and hope that no one else is sick, ruining the birthday festivities.
Upon feeling better on Tuesday (despite early day lethargy), Aleks started talking extensively about everything he wants to do on his birthday. Based on a conversation we had a few weeks ago, he's decided that he's in charge that day. He even drew this list of all the things he would like to do.
As far as I remember from his chattering, he would like to
- have donuts for breakfast
- eat ice cream and birthday cake
- pick tomatoes
- dig for treasure and toys in the sandbox
- feed the chickens
- play video games on the television
- have a race
- receive presents
- talk on the phone with Jonas while standing beside him
This last one is particularly interesting - what a goal! He thinks it's hysterical, which of course it is.
