Button up the Front

-

This morning Finn and Nana got up together while I slept in. After I got up Greg and I went to Hardees to get breakfast while Mom fed Finn two (2) packages of oatmeal. After breakfast we sat around and drank coffee while Finn played in the den. He made a game of climbing up the stairs. He would climb a few steps and then turn around to see if Nana was going to chase him. Finn also added a new work to his repertoire - "Papa". He would lean over the balcony look down at Greg and say "Pa Pa." Next he did something very sweet and very uncharacteristic. He climbed up in my lap and went to sleep. My heart melted. After he woke up we took him outside to swing. Once again he demonstrated how much he hated the swing.

Next we played with truck in the kitchen floor. Then Mom and I took him outside and let him crawl around in the front yard. While I was getting ready Finn and Nana played with the hair rollers. Next, we dressed Finn. He wore his new "button up the front" shirt. He has never looked cuter!








Before we left for the day Finn and Papa played on the lawn mower. Next Finn and I went to Scottly and Sarah's baby shower at Ruby Tuesdays in Murfeesboro. Finn was really well behaved, probably because I gave him both chocolate mousse cake and baby shower cake. After learning that Finn loved chocolate Scottly's dad went out to the car and brought in a huge piece of chocolate cake for Finn. Finn enjoyed a small piece off the side. We didn't want to eat all of Mr. Griswold's cake.

Later on the in the night Gran came over to keep Finn while Michael and I met David and Sharon at Chilis. David and Sharon are moving to California on Monday so we wanted to spend some time with them before they left.

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!
