Finn's new brother

-




On Friday Finn, Michael and I went to find out about the new baby. Since we were going to Tullahoma immediately after the appointment Finn had no choice but to go with us. The appointment went really well. The baby looks very healthy, and it looks like Finn is going to have a little brother. I am really excited - I always new that I was made to be a mother to boys. I am also very excited for Finn who will have a great time with his brother. Finn also had a great time at the ultrasound. He would point to the monitor and say "mama's baby." At one point he stood on a stool next to me and just looked - it was a sweet moment.

Next we went to Tullahoma to spend the night with Grandad and Gigj. MJ, Coop, Hank and Lauren were there as well. Hank was so good the whole time. During our night at Grandad and Gigi's we had tacos and then we visited Gene and Minnie. While we were there Finn took a spill off of an exercise ball and bumped his head. He tried so hard not to cry - but alas he succumbed to the pain.

Finn and Hank both slept in the room with Grandad and Gigi; Hank in the crib and Finn in a pallet next to grandad. They both slept really well. The next morning the boys played in the floor and then took naps until lunch. After lunch we all packed up and headed home. It was a really fun weekend.

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!
