Sam Begley and the Amazing Boo-Boo

-
Disclaimer: The title is actually a lot better than the actual story.  The other day as I was putting the boys in their car-seats, I heard Sam start to cry.  I asked him what was wrong and through giant crocodile tears said, "look at my amazing boo-boo."

Sam has had a rough week at school.  We have notes that Sam kicked, spit and told Ms. Sonya "NO." The next day when I dropped Sam off at school, we had a "talk" in the parking lot before going in.  It was not a pleasant "talk" for Sam.  He hung his head, walked into school, walked straight up to Ms. Sonya, gave her and hug and said, "I have something to tell you."  Then he told her that he was sorry.

In the afternoons I usually ask Finn how well Sam behaved that day at school.  When I asked him on this particular day he looked at me and said, "I don't know - I'll need to see his report first."  He sounded so grown up and so official.

Here are a few pictures of us at Chili's.  We went for dinner on Thursday.  It took about 20 minutes for our server to even acknowledge that we were there.  To make up for it he gave us free drinks, free queso and free ice cream for the boys. Sam enjoyed his ice cream.


To ensure that he got every little bite out of the bowl, he dipped his napkin in the bowl (to soak up the melted ice cream) and then would suck on the napkin. Sheesh.

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!
