Bottle Caps

-
Sunday was a busy day -  we were at church from 8:00 to 12:40 and then we stayed in Hendersonville until 2:00 so that we could take Sam to a birthday party (school friend).  Church went great.  Finn was pretty good during service and Will was perfect.  He stayed awake through most of the service and he was so quiet! I only had to take him out right at the end. 

Anyway, the birthday party was pretty good.  The family had an awesome house and pool.  Right as we walked into the backyard, Finn yelled - "whoa, look at this house - they much be rich!!" Embarrassing moment # 1. Embarrassing moment # 2, came courtesy of Finn as well.  As we were sitting next to the pool speaking with the host, Finn and Sam walk up holding handfuls of bottle caps. These were not coke bottle caps - they were beer caps.  Very loudly, Finn shows us the bottle caps in his hands and said "What is this?"  Leave it Finn to uncover the bottle caps allegedly buried in under the dirt in the playhouse. 

The rest of the weekend was great.  Will slept through the night both Friday and Saturday night.  And he did this in his bassinet.  This is huge progress! Unfortunately, he did not sleep through the night on Sunday night.

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.
