JP went over the edge of childhood this week and has embarked on adolescence.
For his birthday dinner we got a babysitter for the girls and went to Carraba's. It was a nice, adult kind of dinner, complete with conversation. Is turning out to be a remarkable young man. Seems like it was not so long ago we were bringing him home from the hospital.
As usual, his birthday was accompanied by a bit a snow and cold weather.
For his party, he had a big sleepover, with Xbox, PS2, catchphrase, speed scrabble, and never trust a pirate, football, as well as a LOTR marathon thrown in over the period of many hours. I think all the boys got a couple of hours of sleep, but there was never a time when all of them were asleep at the same time.
