The Beauty Parlor

Today Finn and I went to visit Nana. Nana was so excited to see Finn - that is until she picked him up out of the car seat. I know I blog about Finn's digestive health quite often, but this BM took the cake. When we got his clothes off of him, it was up his back, on his stomach, on his shoulder and his is hair. I couldn't believe it. I felt so sorry him. We immediately gave him a bath and washed his outfit. I am hoping that solid food will take care of this "problem."

After Finn was all clean we went to Sirs to pick out fabric for my bedroom curtains. I found the best fabric. Finn went with us and slept in his stroller almost the entire time. When he woke up Nana took him into the bathroom to change him. On the way home Mom and I stopped at Arby's for some take-out. Finn was pretty fussy for the first few minutes, but finally drifted off to sleep.

When we got back from Sirs Nana gave Finn his second haircut. His hair grows so fast! He looks so much neater with shorter hair. After that we looked at my baby pictures and compared them to Finn. Finn looks more like me than I thought.
Finn was in the car today for a total of six hours, meaning that he slept for almost six hours today. I felt certain that he wouldn't sleep very well tonight, but surprisingly, he slept all 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 tights to wear under his costume

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.

Spirit Week Day 4 - Board Game day

Day 4 of Spirit Week was really difficult.  The kids were to dress as their favorite board game.  Hurdle #1: Finn doesn't play board games.  Hurdle # 2:  How in the world do you dress up like a board game?  This was one difficult.  Since Finn doesn't play board games I had to think back to when I was child and go from there.  I finally came to "Checkers" - so I spent the night before cutting out red and black paper circles.  It actually ended up looking more like "Connect Four" but Finn hasn't ever heard of "Connect Four" we stuck with "Checkers." Gran picked Finn up from school again today and took him to the library.  Before going to the library they stopped at the house to pick up his library books.  Finn only had two (2) of his checkers still stuck to his shirt.  I found out today that Finn got a bloody nose after getting pegged in the face with a ball and that he didn't get a star today because he didn't follow dir
