Chards O' Glass and other things that can kill you

-
Today was a stay at home with Finn day. It was stressful to say the least. Despite the fact that I was home with Finn I had a lot of work to catch up on after the holidays. Finn must have known that I really needed him to be calm and quiet today because he just wasn't. In fact he was into everything. I am really going to have to start trying reverse psychology on this child. This is picture of Finn attempting to put chards of broken glass in his mouth. I know what you are thinking . . . why on earth did you take a picture before taking the broken glass away from him? Good question. Over this Christmas season, Finn has smashed three (3) glass balls, I really just wanted a picture to remind me of how much fun Finn had destroying my tree. And as a bonus, no stitches.

Next Finn and I played upstairs. While I was typing on the computer, Finn sat in the floor and played with his toys. At some point I started smelling a delicious green apple candy smell and started wondering where on earth it came from. I was mortified when I looked down and saw that Finn had shoved at least five (5) pieces of bubble gum in his mouth. I have no idea how he got a hold of it other than it accidentally got mixed in with his Christmas stuff from Nana (it was the gum that Michael and I got in our stockings). I was able to get all the gum out of his mouth before he got it everywhere.
On Wednesday night we had a pizza night with Gran, Pa, Aunt Sharon, Uncle James, Chelsea and Brother Tim and Jean.
Upon first glance this picture looks like Finn is sitting on his potty. Well, he isn't. He is sitting in his booster seat on the floor. I didn't take this picture so I have no idea what Finn was up to. While on the topic of pottys, on Thursday immediately after changing Finn's diaper I felt a warm spot through the diaper leading me to believe that Finn had "gone" in a brand new diaper. I looked at Finn and asked "Tee Tee?" He smile and with much excitement said "POTTY!" I hope this is a good sign.

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!
