Beware the Shawarma King!!!

Well today is Sean's birthday...Happy Birthday baby! The big 27! Anyway, last night we celebrated by going to eat at his favourite restaurant "The Shawarma King" a Lebanese place down 14th Street. I have always been weary to go there and this was my first time trying the Shawarma, but since it was his birthday I was open to it. Anyway, we had a great time and went bowling with Jeff and Nena which was so old school! This morning Nena and I both woke up with sore butts from the rough night of bowling...who knew it could be such a work out! Anyway, we went to Montana's for dessert later and I felt something brewing! I made my way to the bathroom and was afraid I would never get out of there. Needless to say, I was up the whole night very sick from the "King"! It's been awhile since I've ever been that sick, and word to Jeni...I'm so sorry, if you know what I mean! Today I felt like I had a sickness/headache hangover and just now I'm starting to feel a little more normal. I was talking to Sean this afternoon and he was telling one of his buddies about it and found out that 2 other people had been into the hospital today because of the effects of the Shawarma! Beware the Shawarma!!!

Well on Monday night we finally had the time to have a Family Home Evening. Drew and I had been cleaning up the bonus room of games that him and B had gotten into and found a puzzle of the Prophet Joseph Smith. What a perfect thing to do for FHE since puzzles are Drew's favourite past time right now. Here are a few shots...I think it took us 1 1/2 hours to do and Drew was there the whole time trying to figure it out! It was definitely a leap from his Dora puzzles but he was awesome!

Brayden on the other hand has a different past time these days. I was just changing his diaper and it's quite a wrestling match now. He feels the need to reach down and smear his poop around while I'm wiping him! SICK...So I have to hold his legs down with my left arm, basically pinning him down while my right hand wipes! All you mom's know what I'm talkin about! I've heard those horror stories about the baby taking their pajamas off in their crib and taking off the diaper and smearing on the walls...I have to be thankful that hasn't happened to me yet!

For a little update on the parents in Italy...for those who don't know, Dad had his suitcase sent to another city with someone elses tags on it so the airlines still haven't found his bag...I've been wondering how he's managed with one outfit and one pair of trunks! Mom had her wallet stolen yesterday so I had to cancel her credit cards today...she says it was a pickpocket...Tomorrow they meet up with Dan and R2 in Rome...I wish I was there too...they say it is beautiful!

I think it's off to Costco once Sean gets home in a bit here...that always makes me feel better!

Good luck to the Flames tonight! We love the Kipper!

"The Shawarma King" sounds like it was meant to give people an upset stomach. The name alone makes me think of a resteraunt you would see on Indiana Jones or something. You are a brave girl. Good luck with the poopy bandit! Sounds like it's a game to him. So much fun! :) My parents had the same problem in Italy (with pickpockets), though not to the same extent. Aparently a major problem there & were told to wear their wallets in their underwear wherever possible. Hope everything gets worked out for the luggage! Buona fortuna!

Thanks Libby! I've been doing LA Weight Loss. The weight has been coming off fairly easily. We definitely won't be going to that King restaurant. China sounds cool.
