Birthday, the flu, and cultured boys

Today is my birthday and I am off from work, oh blessed day!!!! I got to go to breakfast with some girlfriends. I took a cute, little date (Cole). Corey asked if he wanted to stay home with him but he didn't want to. Before we left we went over some ground rules. I told him that he couldn't run around and that he needed to act like he was at church, reverent. So maybe it is not the best thing to equate with a restaurant (reverence), but it worked. He was quite good for the duration that we were there. And a little ham one thing he does best. I was great to spend some time with women that I admire and look up to.
Another reason why I was looking forward to today is that it is half day at school. So I get to spend a little extra time with my little men. Cole has decided that we are having Stevi-B's for lunch but I am trying to talk him into a picnic at home. Stevi-B's is a pizza buffet for any of you who don't know. And they have an awesome baked potato pizza and let me say that it is NOT on any diet, but oh so yummy.
I am having a chill day because I came home from work last night with an achy body and chills. While the little ones watched a movie I got in the tub to soothe the muscle aches. When I got out I checked my temp it was 102. How sad it is to be sick on your day off. I feel much better this morning just a little tired. It seems that this like this happen to me all the time, Murphy's Law. And as luck would have it Corey had to go into work. This isn't the first time he has had to go in on a day off. He was quite frustrated last night and said that he won't do it again.
On to the cultured boys. Both Kobie and Cole have gone through a phase were they like watching Sleeping Beauty. It maybe that there is a prince and dragon in it, but it is cute to watch them watching it. I also think it is perfectly healthy for little boys to be exposed to princesses because that is who they will be looking for one day. I know that I found my prince. Plus there are enough truck, cars, and trains in our house to open a toy store. We love boy toys!
