Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Finn

-

Today Finn couldn't make up his mind about what type of mood he was going to be in. One minute he was laughing and smiling and being all around adorable, the next he was crying and mad and biting me. He was a perfect angel during Sunday School, so I was a bit surprised that he so moody after his nap. I guess he is still feeling poorly. (He has a terrible hacking cough - it sounds so painful.) The following pictures were literally taken within seconds of each other.


Not so happy . . .


Happy . . .

Not so happy . . .

really happy . . .


This is how our whole day went. I was exhausted by the time I put him to bed at 7:30. He even fussed in the bathtub. It is really bad if even the bathtub can't help.



We attempted to crawl several times today. Finn is very close. He can get up on his hands, and one knee. The other gets stuck sideways underneath him, but he is starting to figure out how to straighten it out.




Once he gets in the position he will rock back and forth for a few seconds. Then he gets really mad and frustrated, falls belly first into the floor and cries for his Mama.


After a few failed attempts at crawling, Finn and I sat in the floor next to the computer desk and practiced standing up. He really wasn't much in the mood to stand so I just did whatever I could to make him happy.





Finn has picked up a few new habits. He is clapping pretty regularly now. He also has taken a liking to raising both of his arms up in the air as high as he can.

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!
