Stories About My Favorite Finn

How can I become better about this? I just need to force myself to write, because I feel like I've got a lot to say during the days - and no one to talk to besides a one year old and a almost 4 year old. ha.

The other day Finn told me that his leg elbows hurt. HAHA. It took me a while to understand that the body part he was referring to were his KNEES. Leg elbows, omg that is awesome. He also told me that sunday school is called ice cream sunday school. And at ice cream sunday school he filled out a sheet of paper (well his teacher did) and it said " I am happiest when I am watching the shark at the zoo" hahahaha OMG. Oh and at his preschool they filled out a poster board of everything they are thankful for:
Finn Starkey : I am thankful for my baby Leo, my mom and dad, and Triston.

Triston is one of Finn's many bff's. Ugh, sorry Jack. I guess this is what happens when you are constantly pissing off your younger brother.

Finn always wants to go to other kids houses to play with their toys. When it was warmer out, like a month ago - Finn and the neighbor kids were outside. They all ended up at our neighbors house. When all of the kids went back outside, Finn stayed inside playing with the toys in the basement. He continued to go ring their doorbell to play, even though he really just wanted to use them for their toys. We ended up asking them if Finn could borrow some toys so he wouldn't keep asking to go play in their basement. haha. Their kids are older and don't even play with the toys Finn likes. We talked to them before we let Finn go ask. haha.

Finn ran across the culdesac to our 8th grade babysitter neighbors house and rang their doorbell. When her dad answered Finn asked if she was home and could come out and play.

We were going over to a friends house and Finn tells me, I hope I can play with Chloe's toys by myself. hahaha. Sad.

Surprisingly, Finn has awesome social skills and very very good at playing with others. It definitely helps if you have the right toys, though.

This middle child CRACKS me up!!!!!

Halloween 2013

We had a great Halloween this year!

Jack got to carve a huge pumpkin with Grandma and Grandpa Loney this year.

We got "ghosted"

Leo hated the mustaches in our "ghosting" bags

Finn picked out this design and "helped" me

Leo's pumpkin was the best

Here they all are, Jack did his own.

Finn went trick or treating at his school. Leo and I handed out candy.





Leo dressed up for this too:

After the preschool party, we headed home to give Leo a quick nap and then we were off to Jack's halloween parade at his school. Leo was a nightmare there, which didn't surprise me. Here's Jack:

And then when Jack got off the bus it was time for pizza and some trick or treating!

Leo made it around the culdesac before he just started wandering aimlessly around. He and I were inside handing out candy at 6:30. Finn made it until about 7:20 and Jack made it until about 7:50. The rain was kind of a bummer. But everyone had a great time. The candy is out of control over here. The were eating some at 6:50 this morning. Ugh, Halloween you kill me. ha.
