You can even see the scratches (click on the photo and it'll get bigger) on his nose from where he looks for his nuk.... :( Sometimes I just think he's so sad he doesn't have it.

Finley sure out did himself for Mother's Day! He recruited Dad's help and got me a Nikon D40 digital camera! Woo Hoo!!!! You all get to see me now learn how to use this thing! Enjoy the pictures!
Thank you Finley, Daddy, and Molly! I love all 3 of you so very much! I'm the luckiest girl in the whole world!

Swinging in the Backyard!!!

Today was such a nice day! We started the day waking bright eyed after sleeping through the night WITH NO NUK! Fueled up on some cheerios, avocados, pears, milk, and yogurt for breakfast. Then met Jen, Kirsten, Paige, Ollie, Betsy, Rhianna, Wendi, Matt, and Gideon for the MS Walk (I forgot my camera so I'm hoping to get some pics emailed and post them soon)! We had a wonderful walk and then a great lunch at Applebee's with all our friends. On the way home from lunch, Finn fell asleep in the car and didn't want to sleep once we got home. I took him into bed with me and had a bunch of fingers playing with my teeth, nose, eyes, etc...you know the drill, everything but sleeping! Finally, Finn went to sleep.

When we woke up, we did some swinging on our new swing from Grandma and Grandpa LaLa, then grocery shopping for Mom and Finn. Note: Don't take Finn grocery shopping while he's hungry....he tries to eat everything and gets a bit mad when he can't. Then we came home, ate dinner, and went for a walk as a family. It was so beautiful out and Molly walked great. We got home and did more swinging!!!!! Yeah!!!! Played some ball with Molly and then it was time for the bath!!!! After the bath we cuddled and had some milk and books and off to bed.....

WITH NO NUK AND NO CRYING!!!!!!!!!

Way to go big boy!

Enjoy this video of Finley Swinging!
