Who needs sleep, no you’re never gonna get it…

Hi blog fans… I know I know I know, it’s been a while… but back on the ranch we’ve been kinda busy!  I came down with west nile (j/k it was really a virus) about two weeks ago and the docs had all kinds of meds pumped into me.  The worst case of zitz you’ve ever seen.  I couldn’t possibly go out in public, so mom and I stayed home and ate bon bons.  Just prior to my stay at home we did this eeg thing.  It’s where this really cool nurse got me all drugged up and hooked me up to this crazy machine that took pictures of my noggin.  You see they starved me then expected me to go to sleep on demand…  yeah right… so they gave me this awful drink and that made me like a drunken sailor, but I gave it the old Ari fight and after a second dose, I gave it… to hungry to fight.  So while they were looking at my noggin, I was dreaming of sundaes and pb sandwiches.  Just as they were finishing up, Bam I awoke to find mounds of pb and pudding to be eaten.  I devoured the whole thing and then went back down for a nice winter’s nap.   Momma waited patiently for the results… taa daa normal… or so she thinks (the saga of my eeg to be continued in Rochester, coming soon to a blog near you)

So that song by the Barenaked Ladies ("Who needs sleep") is my new theme song.  I find it quite irritating that mom and dad don’t like getting up with me at 3am for our parties.  Mom is at her wits end.  I just don’t understand why she thinks it is necessary to sleep for more than 4-5 hours?  Works for me. 

We’re going to see Maggie this weekend for her early Birthday bash.  Her momma thought it would be a good idea to have it before Ella (her new sister) arrived.  I agree, this way we don’t have to share our toys with her, I mean- what if she wants our binkies…

Daddy is off to West Palm to visit GG (great grandma), she’s not feelin so hot… so if you talk to the big guy upstairs give him a shout out for GG, we miss her and want her to get better soon.

I want to take an opportunity to thank all mom & dad’s friends and family who have helped them out lately, I don’t mean to tire them out so much, or make them worry, but since I know they have you all— 3am giggles aren’t so bad, right?

Happy Birthday America!

Our weekend started early as we celebrated my neighbor, Britany, graduating from high school.  It was great fun with lots of good food, and cute boys.  I like the red heads!

So I finally get this 4th of July thing.  It’s a birthday party for America, that’s cool!  So at this party there was lots of food and cake and these loud booms with pretty lights!  Very cool.  Our holiday weekend continued on Saturday with a flooded basement. I didn’t see the problem with that, more water to play in right?  Wrong said dad, not only was the water gross it had lots of little tiny ants and stuff in it.  Hmmm maybe not so fun.  So while dad cleaned the basement, mom and I went to good will and donated lots of stuff.  We also had some time to swim in grandpa’s pool and watch movies.  I love grandpa’s pool cuz I get to float on this big raft and splash my cousins!  Mom said she was turning into a prune, but she didn’t taste like a prune when I tried to take a bite out of her shoulder. 

Long weekends = party hearty through the night.  I don’t like sleeping alone anymore, so I kicked dad out of bed officially so I can sleep with mamma.  He can sleep in my crib, I told him, but I think he prefers the couch. 

I got to meet a new cousin last weekend, his name is Owen.  He likes to eat as much as I do.  Way to go man!  Keep up the good work.  He keeps his mom up a lot too!

Last night were the big sparkling things in the sky, mom says they are fire works, I liked em a lot, except for the part where this family sat in front of me and chain smoked.  We had to move so we could see the show and have fresh air. How rude!

Have to give big angel hugs to my friends out there in the Hospital… Brady & Arianne get better soon!  Arianne just turned 3 - happy birthday girl.  Hope those docs and nurses gave you a slammin party!

Update for the week… mom and dad have their 4 year anniversary tomorrow, I’m gonna throw them a party at midnight, you think they’ll like it? I hope so!  10 days til momma’s 30!  I have an EEG on Tuesday, whatever that is.  Mom says it will measure my brain waves.  They’ll need a really big tape measure to get all I’m thinking about! I think they expect me to sleep too… we’ll see, I’ll just have to charm those nurses into thinking otherwise.  It’ll be easy to sway them to the side of angelic anarchy!  Stay tuned for the updated pictures; hopefully mom will get them up tonight while I tear apart the living room.  Oh ps… I learned to climb on top of the furniture-  cirque de soleil here I come!
