Finn is 2 years and 7 months old.. seriously? He is officially a person now who has his own ideas, preferences, voice, creativity, and opinions. It is so fun to watch him play and see how his imagination runs wild.
he loves swimming and I would be sad that summer is ending, but I think
that he's going to like playing in the snow just as much!
He loves to snuggle and read books, and sing songs. He can be heard all over the house singing songs, most the time they are songs we've sung together like primary songs or Taylor Swift, but occasionally you'll hear him randomly make up a song about what he's doing, and those are my favorite! He'll sing "I'm goin potty, I'm goin poooootttty, yeah yeah yeah" then he'll explain to me that, that was a song about him going potty.
He is such a good listener,
especially even when he aren't talking to him. D and I will sometimes have cryptic conversations about him when we're all driving in the car about things like, what the plan is for the rest of the day, or how we are choosing to discipline, then out of no where Finn will chime in and add to the conversation like we were talking right to him. So needless to say we are working on choosing our words more wisely
We have started playing with letters. He can quickly recognize the letters R, Y, and O. It's hard to see because he
insisted on using a yellow highlighter, but this is his first F!
Here he's wearing B's bloomers because we had a throw-up incident in the car and mommy was Very unprepared. He thought it was the funniest thing ever! -thank heavens they fit him.
He LOVES his Rescue Bots- transformers that are rescue heroes- he watches the show whenever we let him and there are action figures for all the characters, so we devised a plan to put his love for them to good use. We set up a sticker chart and when he gets all his stickers he gets one! He's earned 4 so far and has two more to go. He will do almost anything for a sticker and I love how motivated it gets him to do things like brush his teeth and get on his jammies.
He does everything with them, and "rescues" people everywhere he goes. As cute as it is D and I are struggling to keep up with him and all his rescue aspirations!
He often does work out routines complete with, burpees, lunges, some cool flops, and... incline perfect push-ups? He's
Finnsane :)
Finn is the sweetest big brother and loves to "play" with B. He'll make up games where he's protecting her from a tiger or where they're hiding from a dragon. Whenever she's laying on the floor he'll go up and rub her arms and kiss her belly.
Super Why is also an obsession in our household and sometimes we even let it out of the house. We got this mask off a cereal box the other day and he didn't take it off for a solid 6 hours!
At the MN state fair I took him on his first ferris wheel ride. It was a HUGE one but he did so good. He loved how high we were "like Blades!" (his helicopter rescue bot)
Finn is so adventurous, courageous, tender, loyal, patient, energetic, creative, clever, smart, and so loving!
His favorite:

snack- pretzels
show- Rescue Bots/Super Why
color- blue
