Clean Up

-
This afternoon when we went to pick Finn up from the nursery, we got our weekly Finn update. This week they told us that Finn loves to clean up. When the other parents came to pick up their kids, Finn started saying "clean up" and put all of his toys away. The nursery workers believe that Finn thought that if he cleaned up his parents would come and get him.

When we got home Finn had lunch, a peanut butter sandwich and a butter pecan cupcake.


Yes, this is peanut butter in Finn's ear.




Finn first cupcake (I made these for Victoria's birthday) - he learned to say this word real quick



Then Finn and I took a long nap. When we got up we snuggled on the couch and watched Thomas (it was really cold today). Then I went to do a home visit for one the kids that serve as Guardian Ad Litem for.

When I got home I found Finn sitting in the kitchen floor eating raisins out of his dump truck.



Jammies and tennis shoes - classy!

Then I made a few chicken salads dinner. At dinner, Finn ate green peas. The best part about dinner now is praying because Finn knows to hold our hands and say Amen.

Next Finn had a bath. During his bath Kodiak jumped up onto the side of the tub. Finn immediately grabbed his back leg and tried to pull him into the water. Kodiak escaped, but just barely. Like a moron, he sat on the floor right next to the tub and began to bathe. Unsatisfied, Finn filled up an entire cup of water and poured it over the side right ont0 Kodiak. I laughed so hard that Finn filled up another one. I had to stop him right there. Finn must have known I meant business because he walked over to me, hugged me and in his sweetest voice, said "mama, timeout?"

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!
