The Tent

-
Monday night was my first night home alone with the boys. I decided that it might be fun to build a tent in the den and sleep under it with Finn.  We really had a great time.  We watched Cars 2 and ate popcorn and pudding.  Finn thought this was really great. Around 8:30 he snuggled up next to me and fell sound to sleep.  He even sleep through Sam's first feeding at 1:30. 
 




The fun abruptly ended around 3:00 when Finn woke up suddenly and would not go back to sleep.  He was wide awake from 3:00 until we left to go to Victoria's house.  I attempted to get some sleep during this time but Finn would try to pry my eyes open. I was so irritated!

To make matter's worse Finn fell asleep in the car on the way to Victoria's house. After dropping Finn off Sam and I ran a few errands and we ended up take a nice nap together on the couch.  Sam is the best cuddler  - I love napping with him.

Later that night (Tuesday) Gina came over to spend the night.  She planned to stay with the boys th e next morning while I worked. Finn and Gigi played for a little while until he left with Michael to go see a basketball game.  They got home around 9:30 meaning Finn did not get into the bed until 10:00. He was so exhausted.

Okay, Blogger has changed and I have no idea how use it. Why does everything have to change???

    What fun and what memories. You and Emily did that all the time!
    Also, the phrase on the television was quite prophetic for the night to come wasn't it? HaHA

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.
