The Bunny Has Been Recovered

-
On Sunday the boys came running down the stairs shouting, "mom, look what we found!"  I almost cried when I saw Sam's stinky "bunny."  Apparently it had been shoved into one of Finn's toy dump trucks.  I am tempted to go ahead and steal it from Sam and hide it away safely in my cedar chest.  I have decided that "bunny" will be the baby toy I keep of Sam's and "little blanket" will be what I keep of Finn's.


Sam being a ninja turtle.  He really gets into the role.
Michael and Finn spent much of Sunday afternoon building his "Lego" Spiderman/bad guy van with Michael.  Finn did awesome.  Michael has the patience of a saint I tell you.


This week was spirit week at school.  Monday was character day.  Finn dressed as a ninja turtle (go figure) and Sam went as a little bit of everything.  He had a "Batman" hat, a "Superman" shirt and "Spiderman" shoes.




Tuesday was "Tie-Dye" shirt day.  Neither of my boys own any tie-dye so they went in regular clothes as shown above.  Finn was pretty bothered by the fact that he didn't have a tie-dyed shirt.  His solution was to just not go to school.


Wednesday was "Hawaiian" shirt day.
Finn has an great Hawaiian shirt.  Sam has an "actual" Hawaiian shirt.  He is wearing a shirt with a hula dancer on it that Gran bough in Hawaii.

    I like Finn's solution to not being able to participate in "tye-dye" shirt day.
    He is either passionate about participating fully in school life, or, a future lawyer (as evidenced by his gift of creative problem solving).

    Let poor little Sam keep his bunny. It won't be long before he will move on to other toys. Remember how upset you were because Finn turned 5 years old????

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!
