I'm standing in the kitchen and Fin walks in -
Fin - "WHAT is going on in here?"
Me - (in the middle of sending a text) "umm, I'm cleaning the kitchen."
Fin - " You're not cleaning the kitchen Mom, your just pushing buttons"
Great, I'm already getting busted by my two year old...

Fin making goo goo sounds at Ellie and trying to get her to talk. He blew a raspberry and got spit all over Nathan's head. He looks at Nathan, very annoyed says "WHAT THE HELL DADDY?". I know the wrong thing to do is laugh, but we just lost it...

Making dinner he wanted some raw garlic from the cutting board. I say "hmm, I don't know if you'll like it Fin, it's really strong". Fin thinks I'm making a joke, "Moooooommy, it's so little, it's not very strong. I'm a big boy and I'm stronger." Well he ended up getting the raw garlic clove. Now he knows what I meant. "Mommy I DO NOT like this garlic.". Yep.


Fin wanted to give me a haircut. It was very professional, he used a wet comb and said snip, snip snip. All the time telling me "Mommy you look SOOOO handsome! You are SUCH a good boy!".

This week we went to the Tiny Tots Inside the Orchestra with Nanna. They play in a big circle and all the kids get to sit on the stage in the middle and watch all the instruments. They do songs that are meant for little ones. It was very cool. Suprisingly, Fin's favorite was the Timpani Drum. They were pretty cool, but very loud. I'm a little nervous, I was really hoping he would be more excited by the cello's and violins.

Ok, now a whole bunch of pictures from the past month. I've been slacking since we've been sick... It's been a crazy few weeks, but LOTS of fun stuff.

 These boys ran around until they literally just fell over!
Then they found the pirate. Fin must have sat on his lap for at least a half an hour. I had to peel him off!



Fin's favorite game, basketball in stilettos. I don't know if Daddy is so amused. I think it's hilarious!


Fin was "relaxing with baby sister"
