Finn's hands

Finn wore jeans for the first time today.








Bouncing: AKA the only thing that distracts Finn from eating

Super sleepy


Finn is quickly learning how to use his hands. He is constantly moving them. He touches everything he sees. When I am feeding him he sticks his fingers in my eyes, my nose, and my mouth. He gets a big kick out of shoving his fingers in my mouth. When I remove them he will start swinging his arms back and forth - which kind of hurts when those little arms hit your face. When I put him in his gym he reaches to play with his toys and he also reaches and tugs on my shirt and hair. He is developing so fast.

Today was a terrible day at work - I cried all the way home. I was so happy to see and hold Finn. Finn was at John and Victoria's today and I thought I had pulled myself together before walking in the door. But, alas I was wrong - the minute I held him I started to cry. When we got home the three of us played and then we read Gossie and Gertie. Finn looked at the pictures for a little bit when we first started, but after a few pages he stopped looking at the book and only looked at me. Finn was pretty tired to tonight and he was sleeping hard by 8:00. I held him until 8:45 and then I put him to bed. I am exhausted so I am about to go to bed too.

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!
