It was Single Son, Alien, the BF, the two boys and me for an early dinner. Single Son did not want to be there, but he went for my sake. He loathes the BF with a passion. But as an adult he knew that he could handle an hour or so of being around him, that he'd survive the ordeal.
I decided that I'd not bitch too much to Alien about things, that I could shut up for the meal about her getting off her arse and moving out of that house. I was even kind when she brought up Papaw and Mamaw ... but I drew the line when she told me that Bubba called her yesterday and told her that when the Dragon Lady (his wife) is at work, he wants to come over and try to mend their badly broken relationship. I damn near choked on banana pudding when I hear that!! When she's at work?? Oh please!
But you'd have been proud of me ... I didn't say a word, other than to tell her this was neither the time nor the place to bring that up!!
Other than that, we had a good time. Ate too much (typical), laughed ... even Single Son got involved in some of our conversations. JJ slept through most of the meal, waking for only a few minutes (long enough for me to pull out the camera and snap a shot of an awake infant).
okay, you saw me awake, can I go back to sleep now?
Got a ton of pics of Butterball. He's start to get fussy, even cried a few times, but as soon as I brought out the camera he'd stop with his fit and start hamming it up for me. As soon as I'd put the camera down, he'd resume his fit.
Half laugh ... half temper tantrum
Butterball and I pretty much shared a plate of food (or three, LOL). He loved everything on "our" plate, including a few new foods he'd never had before - salmon, garlic bread, and orange chicken especially. He feeds himself usually, but let Gramma feed him ... he made a game out of it. He'd let me know which forkful was for him or when he'd let me feed myself.
Hope ya'll had a good Easter!
