Sleep is a pipe dream

No, really. Pipe dream.

Currently, I have been awake since 3:30am. I'm not sure how we get this baby to sleep during the night, instead of during the day. I really should be sleeping now, but it seems like the instant I lay down to sleep, the boy is awake. He knows....

I am really up because I was hungry, so I was eating some strawberries.

I spent most of yesterday working on some stuff for Brooke's shower on Saturday. I figured out how to make cut out chocolate chip cookies. I will share the secret soon. I also made the fondant hearts that I need for the cake. I hope that I made enough. I may need to make more today, so they can dry overnight. I still have oreo truffles to make (those are easy!) and more cookies to make (again, easy). I boiled my eggs for the deviled eggs and will probably make everything here and finish it in Luxemburg.

I also found M&Ms that are close to Brooke's color (turquoise), and so I bought $20 worth and made little tulle bags with M&Ms in them and tied them with turquoise ribbon. I will post pics, if I remember.

I also did a bunch of cleaning yesterday. There's more to go, but it can wait until next week.

I am going to the baseball game today and I don't really want to. I would rather just send Ryan with my mom (which was the original plan) and have the day to myself to get stuff done, but alas...

It should be fun, I am just tired. So, they'd better win and make it worth it.

I will probably make the truffle part of the oreo truffles before I go to the game and then coat them afterward. I need to test my coating with them to make sure it is okay. I may need to get white chocolate and dye that instead. I think the candy coating I have is vanilla. Which could turn out okay.

Okay, I'm going to attempt to go back to sleep for a bit this morning. I have a feeling, like I said, the instant I lay down to sleep, Ryan will wake back up. He really needs his medicine, but I'd rather let him sleep.

Oh, woe is me! :)
