Finn's favorite things

-
Finn couldn't care less about rain drops on roses, but boy does he love whiskers on kittens. Okay, I know, I know, that was SOOOO cheesy, but these are a few of Finn's favorite things!

Bath time!!! This boy loves to get clean. It doesn't matter how moody Finn is, when he gets in the water all of his troubles literally wash away and he becomes the happiest baby I have ever seen. Finn's favorite thing about taking a bath is his terry cloth bath turtle. He likes to suck the warm bath water out of it. Tonight I put him on his stomach in the tub. He ingested a little water, but for the most part did pretty good. Of course, the minute I put him on his stomach he turned over.


Finn also loves playing with his kitties Fannie Mae and Kodiak.

More specifically, he love torturing his kitties. Check out that grip.

Kodiak really is quite patient with Finn. Fannie, on the other hand, refuses to humor him.
Finally, Finn loves hanging with is Dad.


Today I was able to spend a lot of time with Finn. At 2:30 I learned that Finn was feeling cruddy. So, I left work and was home by 3:00. I love being my own boss!
When I got home I noticed that Finn was wearing a cotton overall outfit. Finn wore this same outfit last week; however, last week it fit him. Today, I could see at least two inches of his shins. Sheesh! At least he is stretching out all those cute jelly rolls around his middle :)

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

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
