| "Mom, can you please quit with the pictures. I know you are going to miss me but I'm napping!!" |
She has really enjoyed reading books this week. It is so cute to see her expression as she gets to a page that she really likes or seems to recognize something from the last time we read it. Her favorites are the pages that have baby's faces, hands, toes, etc.
Wes and Finley had a rough night during her bottle feeding on Monday night. The next morning Wes came into Finley's room to talk to us while I was feeding her and he took him a morning nap right on the floor. After Finley ate I laid her on her play mat and she clonked out as well. Two tired babies. ;)
Tuesday we went to Bentonville to get my hair highlighted and Wes's "fro" cut!! Beforehand we had lunch with Anna, Tiffany and Kesha from work. I failed to take any pictures which I was so bummed about because this happened the last time I saw Kesha and Anna, two of my favorite peeps!! Finley and daddy took yet another trip to the associate store while I was at the salon. They did come back with a few good finds though!! When they came back to pick me up from the salon my head was in foil and Finley didn't recognize me. Wes felt it necessary to take pictures of me!! Oh, I failed to mention that before we left the house to head to Bentonville. I was totally dressed and we decided that we'd go ahead and give Finley a bath. I was holding her naked little bum in my hand, daring I know, when all of the sudden she pooped all over me!! Down my shirt, blue jeans, and all over the kitchen floor. Wes stood there and laughed at me. He said, "I waited until you started laughing". There really was nothing more to do but laugh, clean it up, get changed and try again ;) Never did I think I would laugh about being pooped on! Oh parenthood....

| Daddy with his fro and sweet Finley Little Miss Finley had her first public melt down on me this week. I took her to Kohl's for maybe 20 minutes but during the time that she should be napping. Apparently the hooptie cart that I got there with a bum wheel that bounced her all around wasn't exactly how she wanted to spend her nap time!! She started whaling and I couldn't get out of the store fast enough. The pacifier did not pacify this time!! I started sweating and felt all of the blood go to my face as everyone stared at me like I was an awful parent. Might as well get use to it huh?! |
Friday night we went to Doe's and Finley got a bit startled as we walked past live music down on Dickson. The street was hopping a bit more now that school is back in session compared to the only other time that we had taken her down there earlier in the summer. She didn't sleep through dinner as she typically does but didn't make a fuss, just sat in her car seat checking everyone out. Again, we know this won't always be the case, as she showed me in Kohls, but we are taking advantage of it while we can!!
Saturday we went to the Cochran's for Addison's first birthday party!! What a cutie pie, we just love that sweet girl. She and Finley are going to be such good friends. I can't wait to see them grow up together. Right now they seem like a world apart in age because Addison is walking and starting to talk and so growny but as they get older the 9 month age gap will seem so minimal. We had a great time visiting with everyone and loved watching Addison get more excited about the tissue paper and cake than any present she got!! ;)
