My Little Fat Fish (Tuesday, December 1, 2009)

-










Today Finn officially became a fish. Using some of the money we received as a baby gift, I bought an "Under the Sea" themed play gym. I thought it only fitting that a child with the name Finn have a few "fishy" toys. I don't know if he has developed enough to appreciate how neat this play gym really is. When I first laid him in it all he would do is look at me (I have read that an infant's favorite toys is his parents' faces). After a few minutes he started to look at the toys. He even held on to the one of the rings hanging from the gym.




We are also noticing how big Finn is getting. Michael spent last night in Bristol and commented when got home that Finn looked bigger than he did yesterday when he left. Finn is also becoming a little pudge master. I love fat babies! I am so happy that Finn is going to be a big baby (just like his Mama). Just take a look at those cheeks and legs! His cheeks are so full that you can barely pinch them; it almost fills like they are going to pop.

Today we woke up at 6:30 to prepare for our big day at Universal Studios Islands of Adventure. The shuttle from the hotel left for the park at 8:00 meaning that we had to be downstairs and ready to go at 7:45. At 7:30 we realized that we had to book our spot on the shuttle the night before. Oops. For two people with jobs requiring close attention to detail we completely fall apart in our personal life. Fortunately we were able to purchase a ticket and catch the 8:00 shuttle anyway. The shuttle ride was interesting; we ended up sitting behind a young couple that could have left about 90% of their PDA in their hotel room and it still would have been too much for my taste. When we got to the park we noticed our ticket required that we show I.D. Well, I didn't bring my purse with me. Oops. After reading and rereading the fine print, we lawyerly types figured out an interpretation that would allow me to get into the park without producing photo i.d. We geared up for the fight

Wednesday night I got a strange phone call from Michael; he asked if I could get an ice pack and a couple ibuprofen ready for him.  Check it out . . .   He went to the doctor Thursday morning and came home with a boot, a pressure sock and a pair of crutches.  Looks like he will be out of commission for approximately two months.

On Sunday morning we slept until 9:30!  Finn was up with the sun, of course, but Sam slept until a little after 9:00. When we got up the sun was shining so we decided to hang the boys gourd bird house from Mr. Gene.  So far we have really enjoyed going to church on Sunday night.  Finn specifically told me that he likes night church better because he can get up and play.  The boys had a pajama party at school today.  It was in honor of Ms. Jenn's last day before maternity leave.  Finn was very excited to show his friends his godzilla feet. Big morning for Finn.  Last night was the first night that we have not put a nighttime pull-up on Finn.  He woke up with a dry bed!
