Dillon's birthday is just around the corner and he decided that he wanted to have his party this weekend. We planned out an outing for 10 of his nearest and dearest and a sleepover for just a few. Unfortuately summer birthday parties usually do not work out well because of vacations. So only 3 friends were able to come and all spent the night as well.
The party starts with some laser tag and lots of quarters for arcade games... so fun and so loud! The boys come out of the tag room excited, yelling, hot and sweaty. They are having a blast. Another game and then it is time to head out.
We pick up some sub sandwiches, chips and soda and then head home. Not quite ready to eat yet, the boys start in on the Wii. A little while later I convince them to come eat, open presents and have some cake. More Wii follows.
More Wii...
More Wii...
More Wii... (a little chasing the dog)
More Wii...
10:00- lights out. I tuck them all in, snug as a bug in a rug, and turn out the lights.
Kevin and I head upstairs to watch a prerecorded show.
11:15ish- we turn out our lights.
11:30- unbeknowst to us the boys have resumed playing Wii and continue to play until God only knows.
What we do know is that they were playing when the sun came up.
The TV was not turned off all night.
They were still playing right up until the last child was picked up.
9:30 am- I had to work in the nursery at church this morning and so I packed up everyone and we headed out to church.
9:45ish Dillon falls asleep on the steps to the balcony in church.
9:50 He heads down to the nursery with me and sleeps in the baby room.
11:00 He is awoken by a baby that has woken from his nap and Dillon is now shaking and nauseous.
11:10 We come home and he can barely crawl to the couch, he can not even make it up to his room.
11:45 I text Kevin that HIS boy is acting like he had an all night bender... much laughter comes from the other end of the line.
4:25 I wake him because the family is heading out to Family Night at the pool.
Finally he is able to sit upright, he heads upstairs and returns with bathing suit on. Once we are at the pool he is mobile again, plus one of his friends from last night was there. His parents also report 6 hour nap. I am surprised they are even talking to me. =)
And Dillon is not even a teenager yet! What is yet to come?

Did he sleep at all last night?
I LOVE that slept in the baby room at church! I wish I was there to tease him about it!
I bet he will remember this forever!
haha...I can relate to the summer birthday bummer, I once convinced my mom to let me have my party in October so I could get more presents.
