Party Animal

Griffen had a sleepover at a friends house last week and they stayed up ALL NIGHT. That morning he went to his cousins football game and just collapsed to the ground and slept under some chairs for the whole game. Then he had to go play a soccer game. (which he scored 2 goals in:)) After that they had a party to go to at the bowling alley. He was so tired. I've never seen him look like that. He has always wanted to stay up all night, but I don't think he'll do it again. At least not for a while.

After Blake got out of the shower the other day he was coloring in his room and I went in to tell him something and his chin was BLUE! I thought he must have got marker on it or something so I tried to wash it off, and it wouldn't come off. I asked him what happened and he didn't believe me so after he looked in the mirror, he said, "Some kid at school grabbed my chin with 2 fingers and slammed me into the ground." I'm all, "Ya, right. Blake what happened?" "I fell off the monkey bars and hit a teeny tiny rock." so I said, "Whatever, you need to go to bed, so you can get up for school." he goes, "I can't go to school like this, I look like a freak show." I had to agree with him. I wouldn't go anywhere if my chin was blue. So Wednesday he stayed home and by that night it was still pretty blue, and he didn't want to go back yet, so he stayed home Thursday also. He still wasn't ready to go back on Friday, but he had to because I had to go to work. I just sat down and asked him, "Ok, were you squeezing your chin?" , "No", "Was someone else squeezing your chin?", "No.", "Well was someone sucking on your chin?", "No, but a cup was." I'm all, "A cup?!?" And he says, "Ya, you know, those Chili's cups?" Finally the story comes out. I had given them some m&m's after school in those blue cups and they get to watch TV for an hour when they get home. So he must have eaten the candy and then sucked the cup to his chin for the whole time. What a dork. I guess that's what we get for taking those little cups!
