Finn's New Carseat

-
I have had a very difficult time deciding what to get Sam for Christmas.  He doesn't really like to play with his own toys - he would much rather play with whatever Finn is playing with.  Since is just a wee little thing I decided that I would get him mostly things that he needs; i.e. a car seat.  Since Michael and I both drive the boys in our own cars we have to get two car seats.  I bought the first one this past.  For the time being it will be my car. 

The minute Finn saw the "new" seat he told me that he wanted it.  I explained to him that it was Sam's seat and that he has a nice seat of his own.  I put Sam in the seat for the first time on Thursday.  He didn't care for it too much.  I think it may still be a bit big for him.



When I went to pick them up fro m JT's that same day Finn ran to Sam's car seat and hopped in.  I just decided to put Sam in Finn's seat.  It actually fit him much better and he was pretty comfortable.  Once I got Finn buckled into Sam's seat he told me over and over in the most serious voice how much he loved Sam's seat and how comfortable it is.  Now every time we go anywhere Finn begs to sit in Sam's seat. 

That night we noticed that Sam was starting to get really fussy.  He had been running a low grade fever for the past two days.  I have had the BEST two days. Sam has laid on my chest and cuddled with me nonstop. 



 He seemed a little worse on Thursday night so we decided to take him to the doctor on Friday.  After sitting in the waiting room for an hour I learned that Sam probably had a virus and to just let him rest and keep his nose cleaned out.

The next morning he woke up a rash on his face, chest and back.  I was a rash caused by the virus, but it has made him one ornery baby. I feel so sorry for him.

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!
