Family

This is my family and I love them. I love the crying, the screaming,the poopie diapers( Finn's not Joe's). I love the hugs, the kisses, the giggles. I love when I have bad days they are always there. I love when they make my days bad, they make them better right away. Yup this is my family and I love them.

A couple of weeks ago our whole family was sick. Joe and me being sick isn't a big deal but seeing Finn get sick is the saddest thing ever. Though it was sad he wasn't himself it was nice that he would snuggle with me and he lost his voice so his cry wasn't so loud. Thank you Court for running errands for us and getting Joe this card. Best card ever it may even deserve a frame.









My sick little buddy who I love so so much. Those baby blues melt my heart every day.

I wish I were

as fit as Finn or any baby really. Seriously who sits with their legs up all day. Just hanging out legs straight up in the air and he does it with a smile. I wish I could have the endurance of a 4 month old because he moves all day long and eventually he gets tired but only after about an hour and a half of moving.

I always wish I were Finn because he is so stinkin cute, I just can't get enough of him. What a life to eat sleep and play all day long. Even though Finn is working out those strong little legs of his he doesn't even have to use them yet because he just gets held all day. Now he is just showing off that he likes working out before he even really needs to. If I had that kind of motivation this baby weight would be gone by now. This is our son Findley Jon at 4 months and I don't know how it is possible but he does get cuter everyday. At four months he has discovered a lot. He loves playing with his hands and sometimes goes cross eyed while getting so excited that his fingers interlocked. He is talking up a storm with babbles and goos and an occasional M sounds ( even though Joe thinks I'm just wishful thinking) I swear he says mmmmm, i like to pretend it's mom. I love when he copies my rasberries and sticking out my tongue. I love it more when he giggles out loud at the simplest thing. He keeps Joe and I working though because something may make him laugh one day and the next day Finn expects us to come up with new tricks because he's already seen the other ones. Today I was just mimicking him and he thought it was so funny. Probably because he is thinking, wow I own my mom. His cries are getting louder and louder followed by a scream. Though mean, I think it is so funny watching that tongue of his curl up as he screams. Just so you know son I love you when you cry, scream and laugh, but i love you a little more when you're happy so lets work on the happy, laughing part. Finn is the reason I get out of bed every morning, literally if I didn't get out of bed I don't know how long he could last. I love seeing his smiles first thing in the morning which quickly turn to tears because he realizes he's hungry. Unless Joe gets him out of bed those smiles last a little longer because he knows no food is coming out of Dad. I wish I had Finn's strength and good looks, but since that isn't happening I'm really glad I get to be with this little guy all day long.

Sweet Husband

The other day it snowed and when Joe got home from work he cleared the driveway right away. He was so excited when he came in and said that someone had left a note on the driveway. I was pretty excited about what sweet thing Joe wrote on the driveway. Since having Finn fun little notes have come to a pause so I automatically though it was so cute. SO as I walk outside excitedly to see this...Tori Shmory.

That's all just Tori Shmory, he took the time to write that and then thought it was so funny that I walked outside to see that. Our love has gone from romance to competition to just making fun of each other and I love every moment of it.

While you're at work

For when you get bored just think of Finn laughing. We love you Father Joe

And this is love

• Boys, boys, boys... I don't care what age you are you are all the same. Boys always try to throw things down other's shirts. Whether it be a boy or girls shirt or ice or grapes, boys are throwing things. And Finn is no exception. As I give him a kiss this morning and start to pull him away, he decides to spit up. Not a little but a puddle full. Does it dribble down his mouth onto his clothes like usual? Not this time, this time he decides he is close enough to me that he can make it down my shirt. And that is exactly what happened. Vomits over his clothes without getting a drop on him ( very impressive and hard to do) and gets it all down the center of my shirt where my bra can so nicely hold it all at the bottom like a stream. This is how I know how much I love him. Was I mad? Not at all I laughed then called Joe immediately. Since he didn't answer I of course had to text him " call me super important" not thinking he would call if he was really busy. But he did call while he was with a client. So next time something amazing like this happens I can't say it's important just impressive. Yes son I love you that much and think you are going to be amazing and throwing things down other's shirts.

OBSESSED

Finn, Eloise and Lucy had a wild New Year's Eve. After some breastmilk and kicking their legs it was off to bed for them around 9:30 and then the real fun started. We went to Wattsie's house and had some fun with the kinect dance central. It is about the most amazing thing I have ever seen. That kinect is unreal how accurate it is catching your every movement. Seriously have you ever played it, if not you should, it well change your life. Ever since that night I have been obsessivley trying to talk Joe into buying one. I purposly don't dry my hands after I wash them to rub my cold, wet hands on Joe to torcher him until I get that kinect ( it hasn't been really working but I'm slowly wearing him down). I love it and I can't stop thinking about it, I may have a problem. I think I love it so much because it is something I can beat Joe at all the time. Besides getting in bed first and dance central there isn't much more I can beat him at, and that is why I need it to save our marriage. He always says fantasy football saved our marriage well know we need xbox 360 kinect to save it again... I love you competitive Joe.
