My Boo turned 10 today.
Yes. The day after Moo. One day I will tell you the tale of me ripping my OB a new arse with his 5 iron when he tried to insist that my uterus be unzipped on Moo’s birthday…
This morning, as I lay beside him after being bellowed for at 6am (while I was icing the cupcakes for school, yeah, at six freaking AM people! My love and devotion knows no bounds) I marveled that he was now ‘2 digits’.
‘I am not 2 digits Mummy! I am the big one ohhhhhhh! A decade!’
Yup, dude. The big one ohhhhh!
*sob*
He opened his gifts while a couple of buckets were handy for MPS, Moo and Too who have caught Boo’s vomiting bug.
He lost his freaking MIND when he opened this:
Remember Christmas time when he wanted HyperDash? He STILL plays with it! Takes it to school at least once a week 
This is the same sorta thing. Oh how I love you Hyper people!
and this:
How freaking awesome are these. Electronic drumsticks. Big HUGE smootches to my girl Amanda for telling me about these. Amanda you freaking ROCK!
not so much with this:
and I sent him off to school with these:
to share with his classmates. Gluten, milk and colour free for the win! All FORTY of them.
While he was at school and the vomiting hordes were either fouling the toilet or sleeping with their heads in buckets I made this:
He relented and allowed me to make a little cake. With the mini cake tin. What you can’t see is a little fondant plaque with his name in Hebrew. Cause Boo is all over the Hebrew, my lovelies. You know with him being a French Israeli with an American accent…
Then I cleaned the vomit and bottom explosions off every freaking surface of the bathroom and twittered this:
Which none of them read. Seeing they don’t actually follow me on Twitter and were asleep cradling buckets.
Bastards.
So I pulled apart a cupboard that contains random shit all the craft/party/sewing/wherethefuckshouldthisgoIdunnojustchuckitinthehallcupboard before setting up for Boo’s Birthday Dinner. Murphy laughed and laughed and then choked on his own spit from the laughing cause the SECOND I had everything pulled out of the cupboard I got a call. From school. Seems Boo’s arse exploded. Come pick him up and consider burning his uniform.
Fab.
So I picked him up and he was fine. And we got to spend some lovely cuddly time together.
Me and my Boo.
My Ten. Year. Old. Boo.
*sob*
Happy Birthday my gorgeous boy. I love you past the furthest star and past the furthest planet.

What a couple of days! Just as well you tanned that Ob/Gyn’s rear end 10 years ago- imagine yesterday and today combined! I don’t know how you do it- honestly! And you’re still rather a youngster yourself- I guess once Moo, Boo and Too are off to the four corners of the globe you’ll be off to uni studying biblical forestry or nuclear lacemaking- who knows!? All power to you, Kel- you’re a bl**dy hero biatch! …and Hippo Bird Day to the offspring!
Happy Birthday Boo!
And I suggest that the rest of your vomiting family is made to clean the bathroom themselves when they are better. It might help their aim now.
Happy 10th Birthday Boo!
Good luck for the weekend Kel… I’d have Murphy over at my place for you, but I’ve had enough of him myself. Maybe we can send him to Leigh’s?
Such a landmark birthday. Sending you love and hugs and congratulations for so many things, esp dealing with the exploding arse.
Two big birthdays in a row – wow. That’s – a lot of emotion to pack into 48 hours.
Sorry everybody is feeling yucky…
You totally ROCKED that fondant! Awesome cupcakes and cake! When’s the big carnival?
Happy birthday Boo, and as an awesome present to the woman who birthed you how about you tell the rest of the family to zip up their posteriors, at least for another day or two.
Happy 10th!!!
Happy birthday big guy!
Farting dogs rock. Give it a few years and you’ll laugh with your mad mother, too
Happy Birthday Boo!!!
I have a farting dog. They’re not nearly as amusing in person.
And those cupcakes? Girl…you win. Whatever you want, you won it. Fab-u.
Happy birthday to your Boo!
I went a little nuts when my oldest turned 10. It didn’t seem possible I’d done the motherhood thing for a decade. Then, bam! That little kid had the nerve to turn 11 on me!
Happy decade, Boo!
I read that twitter. I laughed and laughed. Not at the vomiters though…at you…I mean with you of course.
Happy multiple birthdays, and to their awesome Mama too.
Excellent cake effort! Shame about the exploding arses and technicolor yawns – plus resultant cleaning requirements.
Does Boo have Rush Hour? We really enjoy that game. It is a gridlike parking puzzle, for all ages. He’d have a few years yet to enjoy it, my daughter was 10 when we got it and it kept many entertained for hours, and years.
Where have our babies gone!!
*sob*
Happy birthday Boo!!
Happy Birthday! And the cake and cupcakes are splendid.
Happy Birthday, Boo! You’ve got one insanely loving mother.
Happy Birthday Boo! Practically a teenager. Yikes!
I was considering those hyper games for my kids (Costco sells them both for $30, I think) I think you sold me!
xoxo, Amy
Hooray for Boo no longer being a single-digit midget!!!
Hee hee. What a wonderful birthday cake you made. You’re super wonderfully talented!
For the love of Jehovah – what gives with the arse explosions in your house? I hate those damn highly contagious stomach things that everybody in the household gets.
I didn’t realize when I signed up to have kids that I was actually signing up for random biological warfare.
Happy birthday, Boo. Totally hawt cupcakes.
AWWW Happy Birthday! Your cupcakes and cak are GORGEOUS! I have to make cupcakes on Sunday for my snuggle who is SIX on the fourth…I an’t imagine ten. Hope everyone is feeling better soon~!
Happy Birthday Boo!!!!
Those cupcakes and that cake are amazing. When will the recipe and directions be posted missy?
I love Walter the Farting Dog!
Happy Birthday Boo!
Well done on the cupcakes! I didn’t know you had it in you to do that. years ago I had to hug and kiss my sister in law because she told her own ob-gyn he better not bring forth her son on May 3rd because that was my youngest daughter’s birthday, and she wanted her son to have his own birthday and not have to share it with his cousin.
My own baby girl is 33! and I feel old as dirt when she has a birthday. But, because I had them all when I was just a young girl, I am free not to enjoy my travels. YAY!
OH MAH GOTT. You seriously win mother of the year, hands down. Wow.
Colour me impressed.
Happy Birthday to you and both your babies.
How can he possibly be 10 already? ARRGH! These damn kids need to quit with the growing up already.
Dude. That cake rocks. You rock.
Happy Birthday BOO!!! And well done you, Mum. You are one of the good ones.
I can’t believe you managed to do cupcakes while the whole barfing debacle was still ongoing. You freaking rock. And, kiddo’s still into Hebrew?
Happy B-day!
That book, the farting dog, is too funny! On one of my kids’ b-day my aunt brought them a book from Italy (I was born and raised there) where a mole comes out from underground and looks for someone who left a poop on top of his ‘home’ – he examines all sorts of different poops out there (cow, pig, etc) even asks an expert “fly” where this poop on top of his home could have come from ….
my kids loved it want to read it all the time
Sorry for the long comment but that book made me think of it
it looks like you had all the right elements for a great double-digit birthday.
(minus the vomit, of course)
Happy birthday Boo!
Those are such amazing pressies, what a lucky kid!!
Don’t envy all the vomit though, eeuw!
awww happy birthday wee man.
Wow… the big One Oh! Congratulations Boo!
Heh, I know the old “having a baby on a day that is not appropriate” scenario. I had pre-ecclampsia with baby 3 and had to be induced. They wanted me to go on the Monday and my Sister-In-Law threw the Worlds biggest Tanty and YELLED at me for taking the same day as her precious son. As it was I needed an emergency induction on the Sunday. And she cracked the shits cos my Mum rang and told my Brother that I had had a safe delivery of a baby girl and she asked why we couldn’t have rang after 7pm because they were having Devil Childs 1st Birthday Party and I took all the attention away from him. How rude of me. I said to her, ‘How Dare I have A Life-Threatening Complication And Need To Be Induced 3 1/2 Weeks Early So Close To Her Precious Child Birthday.’ She shut the fuck up. Happy Birthday to your kids!
Happy Birthday to Boo
I love the cakes …
How is he today ?
Happy Birthday Boo! We all think you’re the greatest French Israeli with an American accent that EVER lived!
What a big birthday barfy weekend you’ve had! Happy Barfday to everyone!
Awwwww….
Awesome cakes. Great job!
Wow. You made cupcakes, a big cake, cleaned bathrooms and dealt with a family of exploding arses and mouths … you have my vote for Mother of the Year!
OMG I’ve got goosebumps!
A *mention* on the most fabulous blog in the universe! (of course it could also be because the squitters have crossed the firewall and I’m coming down with my own case of the Hurley Burlies).
Happy 10th birthday Boo!!
(and may your house be rid of all vomit-inducing bugs ASAP and may you not drive your Mum insane with drumming while she still remembers who told her about the drumsticks!)
Oh yeah – forgot to mention the AWESOME cakes Kelley. You rock the fondant!
Happy birthday Boo. What the heck happened 9 months before October…. Oct is a BUSY month for you babe!
Happy Birthday Boo!
Those are awesome cakes! Fab job!
And hope everything gets better and that you don’t get the virus.
They ^ said it all, so I won’t repeat it.
Aw heck, Happy Birthday Boo. The cakes look wonderful.
Awww, this must be a record for blogger to post the most consistent “Happy Birthday I love you” posts in a week! I bet you weren’t thinking of that lying in the hospital bed with Dr.Dumbass trying to make them *even closer* together!
Happy Birthday Boo! Sorry about the exploding arse on your birthday, but at least you will have a memorable story to hallmark the decade celebration!
Awesome cakes. Can you divulge that cake recipe or is it top secret?
Hope everyone is over the illness.
Happy Birthday!!!!!!!!!!!
Happy Birthday Big Guy! One of mine just turned double digits too!
Oh man, I’ve had those “exploding arse calls” from school many times. Not my favorite! Happy Birthday to Mr. Double Digits.
Dear Boo—
יום הולדת שמח “Yom Huledet Sameakh”–YES, Happy Birthday in Hebrew….just for you!
You Rock dude and you know your mum is AWESOME…what great cupcakes and cake mummy…you really are AWESOME!
Happy Birthday to Boo! Love the cakes!
I am unfashionably late, but Happy Belated Birthday to Boo! He is teh awesome.
Happy Birthday to Boooooooo! He’s such a cool kid, and those cupcakes and cakes you made are awesome. I would love to have a really good gluten free cake recipe – my husband has Celiacs – if you don’t mind sharing!
Kids don’t know what is funny…a farting dog, that’s so awesome!
Happy big one OOOOOOHHHHHHHH Boo!!!
And mum? You rock because those cupcakes are awesome!
