Bed Head

-
 This is how Finn woke up from his nap yesterday.  Does the images of Ace Ventura or Conan O'Brien come to mind???

Friday was good day because all my boys were home.  Michael got back to the house around lunch time and we spent the day together.  Earlier in the day I put the boys in the den while I listened to my book in the kitchen while cooking and cleaning.

Later that afternoon Sam and I took some food to some of our good friends.  I went in to put the food down and started talking (you know me).  I totally forgot that Sam was in the car.  I was probably only inside for about five (5) minutes, but I completely forgot about him.  I am a terrible mother.  And to make matters worse the District Attorney that is responsible for prosecuting child abuse and neglect cases lives right next door.  Luckily she wasn't anywhere to be found.  Also, it wasn't cold outside, the doors were locked, the car off and the emergency break was on.  Sorry Sam.

After Finn went to bed Michael and I watched "Unstoppable."  I held Sam the entire time. 

Sam woke up for his first nightly feeding at 2:45.  After I feed him I laid him back down around 3:15.  He then proceeded to gurgle and talk for an entire hour.  This meant that I was up for an extra hour last night.  Not because I was particularly worried, but because I don't sleep very soundly when he is making noise of any kind.

Ghouls at Grassmere

Yesterday we took the boys to Ghouls at Grassmere.  Day started out pretty traumatic for Sam.  He wanted to go out and play.  He started to notice that there were several little worms on the porch.  He was terrified that the worms were going to get him so he sat in the porch swing with me for almost an hour.  Finn spent his time finding worms and then stepping on them.  Michael doesn't like for Finn to kill worms because they aren't hurting anything.  I reminded Finn of this fact and told him not to kill any more worms.  After a few minutes I start to hear more crunching.  I decide to take a different approach.  I told Finn, "Finn - the momma worm is going to be so sad because you killed the baby."  He looks at me and said, "don't worry mom - I'm gonna kill the momma too."  So much for the guilt trip. After a nap, it was time to start getting ready for the Zoo.  We started with the tights.  I bought Finn little girl...

The Fourth of July

Well the Begley clan had a pretty big Fourth of July celebration. Finn and I started the day by making a quick run to Wal-Mart to pick up some oatmeal. Then we got ready for our day with with Emily, Zac, Coop, Hank, Nana and Papa. We all met over at Em's house for a little playing, a little swimming and a lot of eating. When we first got there we all sat upstairs and watched the boys play in Cooper's playroom. Finn was absolutely amazed at all the toys. Then we decided to go to the pool. After getting the boy lathered up, we all loaded in the back of Zac's truck like the Clampetts and headed to the pool. With respect to those who would rather not be seen in a bathing suit on the blog, I have omitted the swimming pictures. We didn't get to swim too terribly long because it started looking like it was going to storm so we were only out for an hour. Once we got back home we had dinner. Greg made the best ribs I have ever put in my mouth. To end the evening Finn an...

High Ankle Sprain

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.
