The Wish List

On Tuesday we got the big "Toys-R-Us" catalog.  After supper Finn and Daddy sat at the kitchen table and Finn circled everything he wanted.  At first he wanted everything he saw - even girls toys.  Michael explained to him that he can only pick out a few toys.  He finally got the hang of it and had a really good time. On this particular evening we had spaghetti.  I made sure to feed Sam before we sat down to eat but It didn't matter at all.  The minute he smelled my spaghetti he went into freakout mode.  So I guess you could say that Sam had my spaghetti for dessert.  Both of my boys love spaghetti.  After ever few bites Finn would say under his breath, "this is so good." Later in the evening I crawled into the attic and pulled out Finn's old jungle activity center for Sam to play with.  Finn helped him figure it out.

The Weekend Before School Starts

Michael decided to give the boys one more fun family day before school started back up this fall. We called our close friends, loaded up in a couple of vehicles and headed to the Harpeth.  We decided to get two canoes.  Me, Will and Sam rode in one canoe and Michael shared the other with Finn.  I though that Sam would be my big helper - but it was actually Will.  Will paddled the entire time while Sam sat and took in the scenery.   We stopped midway down the river to hang out in the water for a while.  Near the end of the trip, the boys asked to ride together.  They had a ball, but they were terrible.  They zigzagged back and forth around down the river, cutting off unsuspecting canoers, yelling the entire time.  Thankfully, most people found them to be charming.

This particular morning Sam decided that he was going to give Fannie a kiss.  If I've said it once, I've said it a thousand times - Sam does everything to the best of his ability, including giving kisses.  What this means for Fannie is that she is going end up on the business end of a soaking wet kiss as Sam gives the grossest, wettest kisses imaginable.  It's just a matter of time before Fannie snaps and Sam needs a tetanus shot.  She sure is taking it like a champ though. Friday was the last day of "Spirit Week."  It was wear your pajama's to school day. I picked the boys up early from school on Friday so that I could take...
