Pay No Attention to that Baby Behind the Curtain

-

Today Finn went to stay with Victoria. It was a great day for Finn because he got to see his buddy J.T. on the day that J.T. turned one year old. For the first time today Finn fussed when Michael made the hand off to Victoria. Michael told me that Finn reached back for him and cried a little. I guess we are now smack dab in the middle of separation anxiety.

Before going to Victoria's house Finn laid on the bed and helped his mom and dad to get dressed. I guess you one could say that he sent good thoughts our way. After getting Finn dressed in his puppy dog romper complete with a tail Finn packed up to leave for the day. Before he did he have his Mama a kiss while she was on the treadmill.






I had to a late appointment today so Michael had to pick Finn up from Victoria's. When I got home Finn was jumping on the couch. He really didn't seem that excited to see me. When Michael walks in the room Finn absolutely panics until Michael picks him up. I got a semi sincere smile.

After dinner I took Finn upstairs for his bath. During the bath Kodiak started playing with the shower curtain which prompted Finn to play with the shower curtain as well. He sat up on his knees, grabbed the curtain and ended up pulling the entire curtain into the tub. I kept waiting for him to lose is balance and plop back into the water. But he managed to stay upright.

Ghouls at Grassmere

Yesterday we took the boys to Ghouls at Grassmere.  Day started out pretty traumatic for Sam.  He wanted to go out and play.  He started to notice that there were several little worms on the porch.  He was terrified that the worms were going to get him so he sat in the porch swing with me for almost an hour.  Finn spent his time finding worms and then stepping on them.  Michael doesn't like for Finn to kill worms because they aren't hurting anything.  I reminded Finn of this fact and told him not to kill any more worms.  After a few minutes I start to hear more crunching.  I decide to take a different approach.  I told Finn, "Finn - the momma worm is going to be so sad because you killed the baby."  He looks at me and said, "don't worry mom - I'm gonna kill the momma too."  So much for the guilt trip. After a nap, it was time to start getting ready for the Zoo.  We started with the tights.  I bought Finn little girl...

The Fourth of July

Well the Begley clan had a pretty big Fourth of July celebration. Finn and I started the day by making a quick run to Wal-Mart to pick up some oatmeal. Then we got ready for our day with with Emily, Zac, Coop, Hank, Nana and Papa. We all met over at Em's house for a little playing, a little swimming and a lot of eating. When we first got there we all sat upstairs and watched the boys play in Cooper's playroom. Finn was absolutely amazed at all the toys. Then we decided to go to the pool. After getting the boy lathered up, we all loaded in the back of Zac's truck like the Clampetts and headed to the pool. With respect to those who would rather not be seen in a bathing suit on the blog, I have omitted the swimming pictures. We didn't get to swim too terribly long because it started looking like it was going to storm so we were only out for an hour. Once we got back home we had dinner. Greg made the best ribs I have ever put in my mouth. To end the evening Finn an...

High Ankle Sprain

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.
