T STREET April 29 2014 18 mo Finn


Finn on 18 month b-day. We love to go to the beach and watch Papa surf. And to say they're best friends is no where near the truth. They're SOUL MATES.

At this age he was starting to really help me around the house. Loves putting things in the dishwasher for me and does it correctly. Loves to eat/drink green smoothies (really its because it's through a straw..)

The most obedient and affectionate kid out there. Obsessed with all things water, any animal but slightly scared of a Moose..? Recently started throwing things. His super recents are folding his arms to pray, fake laughing in a way we can't seem to imitate. Singing the Oompa Loompa song. He knows very few words but talks as if he knows the entire dictionary.

San O in April

Asher + Finn are pretty great buds. They're almost the same age diff as Theo + Finn that that makes me suuuuper excited for Theo to get older to see how they play together. This was a morning we spent at San O while Drew was surfing. I dug this hole so that we could put a shower curtain underneath to keep the water in.

Finn17 months
Asher 3.5 years

Easter 2014 -

Easter was such a fun day! It was the day after the first Mermade Market so to say I was exhausted was an understatement. But Finn was so much older than the last Easter that we had to make it fun and do an Easter Egg hunt! Went to a park and maybe made it a lot more difficult than it should have been..because he got distracted pretty quick. But of course it was so fun. Then that night we went to the Lindahls for dinner! Asher + Halen were visiting (they helped big time with MM) and got to come to dinner as well.

Finn was 17 months

Finn @ Zoomars- February 2014

I took Finn on a cloudy day to go to a petting Zoo close by. It was super fun. I love my one-on-one time with him.
Such an animal lover! Except on this day, he wasn't a big fan of the guinea pigs ;) He also went up to a random lady and hugged her leg. Like squeezed her. Even after he realized she wasn't me, he continued to love on her.

Finn 15 mo February 2014


He's really developed his own gibberish during this month. And we understand what he's saying, but to anyone else it sounds like chinese! It keeps us laughing.

This month has been a hard month for us BECAUSE he is so vocal, and feels he is communicating to us what he wants, but we really sometimes can't figure out what it is.

He also started having tantrums. LUCKILY, they last maybe 30 seconds but they def. happen! If he doesn't get what he wants, like fruit snacks, or when he wants to open the pantry door and we have it shut with a rubberband. Or if Drew takes Lady on a walk without him because it's raining. He loves his walks with them.

He loves to wave hi + bye to strangers. Even walks up to them and does it.

Starts at my eyes, the points at my hose and then my mouth. And wants me to tell him what each is. It's cute. I taught him "head shoulders knees and toes, eyes ears mouth and nose" song and made our own version because he was obsessed with eyes and poking them, that I wanted him to squeeze our noses instead.

Loves to play hide + go seek, especially behind curtains, blankets, and retail stores.

Obsessed with TRUCKS. He's always loved cars and airplanes and such, but lately it's trucks.

Makes the same sound for monkeys as he does horses. And loves to make animal sounds. Getting better at the cow "mooooing".

Finn at 15 months has probably been one of the hardest months for me. I am 3-4 months pregnant during this time, and Finn is very needy. Don't get me wrong, he's a very independent toddler, but man, the kid is a TODDLER! Toddlers all of the sudden have an opinion, a personality like a teenager and just wants me all. the. time.

At this stage when I was pregnant with Finn, the fatigue had come in full throttle, but I was able to take a nap whenever I wanted, lay on the couch and watch a TV show for hours on end.. eat whenever I wanted.. but with a toddler with a schedule, I can't lay down really ever, because he hits my stomach and jumps all over my body until I stand up. He loves to play on his own, especially his cars, but won't if I'm anywhere in the house laying down. But if I'm doing dishes, laundry, mopping, he will play with his cars! Just funny.

I'm not complaining, just want to remember every bit of it all.

Valentines Day 2014

I can't even believe I let Finn have a MULLET for so long! Ha! It sorta just happened. He finally had hair and I wasn't gonna let go of it. I see it sometimes at the park with other kids and it makes me laugh because during the time, people always mentioned his mullet and I was like (in my brain) thinking they're just being lame and don't realize how cute he is with it. But no, it's not the cutest haha!

This was a Valentines party we had (that I just said could be at my house, everyone put it on) for the little kids. It was fun! Bubbles and painting and exchanging little Valentines. Here's to hoping they'll be pals forever!
