Like Father, Like Son

Today we got some snow! Better late than never I guess. It wasn't much - but it was enough to cause us to go into work an hour later. We have never driven on ice with Finn in the car so we waited an extra hour to allow time for the back roads to warm up a bit.

At some point every morning I put Finn in his jumping gym to keep him occupied while I am in need of both arms. It is usually when I am washing bottles or packing his diaper bag. This morning while Michael was eating breakfast I put Finn in the jumping gym so that I could so get dressed. When I came back downstairs I saw Michael on the couch watching the National Championship game that he had recorded the night before and directly in front was Michael was Finn in his gym watching the football game. We have noticed that Finn loves to watch football and basketball. We think it is because of all the movement and colors. Nonetheless, it was sweet to see Michael and Finn enjoying the game together.
Today Finn went to Victoria's for the day. Her girls were out of school thanks to the big snow storm so Finn had a lot of fun girls to play with! On the way to Victoria's Finn was very upset. I sat in the backseat with him and sang to him. The singing seemed to help a bit but after the song was over he would start up again. I am glad that he likes his Mama's silly songs.

After work the three of us spent a relaxing night at home. Dinner was catered, courtesy of Papa Murphy's, and we watched the happening (lousy movie by the way).

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!
