GRYFFINDOR

-
On Friday morning I quietly walked into Sam's room to wake him up.  He was sleeping soundly so I tried to be gentle so as not to scare him.  Well, the second I touched his back he shot up like a firecracker and yelled "GRYFFINDOR."  He was breathing heavy and didn't seem to register that I was there so I figured he was dreaming.  It was so funny.

When we got downstairs he managed to grab our safe and scoot it into the middle of the floor.  I am so glad that he didn't drop that safe on his foot.  I'm surprised that he was even able to move it.

Friday was a really fun day for the boys.  Gran came to pick them up around 9:00 and took them to the downtown library in Nashville. They had a great time!

Sam is now regularly running up to me, throwing both arms around me and saying, "I Love You mommy."








Saturday was very easy going.  It was cold and rainy most of the day so the boys didn't even bother to get out of their jammies.


Finn, fighting while wearing his "helmet."
Finn enjoying ABC Family Harry Potter weekend. While we are on the topic . . . Sam quotes the movie now.  But not only does he quote the lines accurately, he does so with great fervor and with a British accent. For example, he likes to say, "It can't be Harry Potter."  He does a spot on impression of Professor Lockhart. He also speaks in parsel tongue regularly.

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!
