Here's a breakdown of how it went:
- Pre fireworks beginning (locals lighting firecrackers): Xander scared and wants to go sit in the truck / Ryker excited and wants to see everything
- Fireworks begin: Xander excited (thanks to Mama's Oh-Oh-Spaghettios for the loud noises) / Ryker tired, jumpy and refusing to watch
- Fireworks midpoint: Both watching in awed silence
- Fireworks mid-end: Xander tired and wants to go home / Ryker really excited and wants to stay until the end.
So we had about a 10 minute interval where they both wanted to watch pretty nicely. Sigh. They did have fun though. Xander would have been better except he refused to take a nap. GRR.
In other news, my diet seems to be working. I hit 159 this am. That's the first time I've seen the 150's since I had Ryker. 7 lbs down and 14 to go! (J's also doing well, about 15 to go). Yippee!

I long to see 159. I haven't seen that weight since about 1999, before the graduate-school-commuting and steady-diet-of-Arbys-and-Coke kicked in. I don't even have the "I had two kids" excuse. :)
Congrats on that, though, and I'm glad the fireworks were fun!
