Playin' with the Boys

-





Today was my first day back home with Finn, after being gone to visit Pa for a few weeks. Since it was almost time to go back to school I thought it would be fun to take him to visit some of our favorite boys, Joseph, Turner, and Walker. They (like everyone) just love Finn!

Finn was in heaven with all those little boys. He was the only show in town and loving every minute of it.

We started out at the house playing with trucks. I had know idea that Finn had gotten so enthusiastic about trucks. Well, the boys had all kinds of trucks and Finn loved them all. It was so funny watching them all play with him, he was having a ball with them.

He finally got tired and stopped long enough to let Joseph give him a bottle. I thought he would surely take a nap but he did not. All the boys were starting to get hungry so we decided to go the country club for lunch and a swim. The club was just about 10 min. away and Finn fell asleep as soon as he got in the car. I didn't want to wake him, but as soon as we stopped he opened his little eyes and said, "up". So off we went.

Finn had fun eating lunch with all the boys. He had yogurt, mac and cheese, some dry cereal and a few black beans. When we all finished lunch we went out to swim. I discovered that Finn does not know he can't swim! He kept trying to kick off and swim to the boys, so we just passed him around the pool and he laughed the whole time! About 3:00 pm they blew the whisle for us to take a break and we all went over to our area to talk. As we all were talking to Finn, he was mid sentence when he just fell asleep in my arms. I was sooo sweet. He kept trying to wake up and say something, but he was to tuckered out. We left the club and headed back home. He woke up about half way home and drank a bottle, the proceeded to talk about all the trucks on the road and them he started singing with the radio till we got home. It was sooo cute. I can't wait for the next big adventure.

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!
