need a whole new word

Fun doesn't even describe what The Mayor is having with his cousins here. We need to come up with a whole new word. Something that combines unbelievable fun with absolute exhaustion. The Mayor is so excited they are here that he was up at 6:21 AM this morning.

After breakfast and showers, we loaded up and headed to the mall. The Mayor wanted to walk with his cousin Luke...his best buddy. The Mayor would only hold hands with Luke. It was really precious. But after a couple of hours of walking, eating lunch and the fact that he woke up at 6:21 this morning, by the time we were home at 3 this afternoon, he was exhausted. So tired that while he was sitting at the table eating a snack, he started to fall asleep. He got the heavy eyes and his head bobbed. He was so tired he didn't even want to cuddle up in D's lap, he asked to take a nap and laid in the middle of the family room floor. In the 3 years and 2 months of The Mayor's life, this has never happened. He is the type of child that will only sleep in his bed or his car seat. He won't even fall asleep in this stroller. Seriously, since he has been out of the car seat carrier he has only fallen asleep in his stroller once, and that was a few months ago. He laid on that floor, asked to be covered up and a few minutes later, he was out like a light.

Thank goodness for the cat nap because we just got him to bed at 9:00 tonight. 2 hours past bedtime...such a rockstar. But with his cousins only here until tomorrow, sometimes you just have to break the rules.

Disappointment doesn't even describe how The Mayor will feel when they roll out tomorrow at lunch. Need to come up with a whole new word for that one as well.
