Finn | Week 3

Finn is three weeks old!
I'm already catching myself wanting to freeze time so badly, because I don't want this little guy to grow up. I just love the newborn/baby stage!

Finn on the left, Fox on the right!
The following picture cost me some smarties with Mr. Fox...totally worth it, right?
These shirts were one of my first projects on my Cricut Machine back in March and I loved seeing my boys in those.

Milk drunk and happy!

Tummy time! Surprisingly, he doesn't hate it as much as Fox did. For some reason he looks so big in this picture to me. Fox had bright blue eyes right from birth, but he seems to have dark grey and almost brownish eyes.

We met up with the entire family for dinner one night and Finn slept through it all...as usual.

This little love of mine! I'm really enjoying staying home with him every day, I remember that I was bored with Fox and went back to work after three weeks, but I'm loving it this time around and I'm so grateful that I get this time. I still work on Etsy and do a few things for our company as well, which is probably why I haven't been bored yet. 

This picture just warms my heart (and he asked to climb in Finn's crib so I could take a picture of them together, so that's a bonus!). I'm really proud of Fox and how well he has adjusted to having a baby brother, that sometimes needs attention before him. He tells me often how much he loves his baby and I couldn't be happier to hear that.

I have about 139,943 sleeping pictures of this little angel.

He is taking a lot of naps in his crib, which Fox NEVER did. We took a newborn sleep seminar when he was two weeks old and have been practicing some things at home and he has done amazing so far, even putting himself to sleep without having to be rocked or held. One night this week, he slept a seven hour stretch, before I had to wake him up, because I needed him to nurse.

Another day, another request from Fox to climb into the crib so I could take a picture of them together. He's totally pretending to be asleep in this picture...haha.


He's seriously such a sweet baby. Please don't grow up! ;)

July iPhone dump

The rest of our July in pictures! Movie date with the boys! I took Finn and his best friend to the Aquarium one day, while Fox was at the allergist with Katie. They both had a blast. Trying to touch the sting rays... Sweet brotherly moment at a play place. One of my patients made this for me, and it made my day. It's now hanging from the mirror in my car, as a reminder how fragile life is. This kid kills me with his watermelons. He always wants to buy them, so he can help me cut them, but then won't eat them. When I pointed this out to him, he simply replied that I could take the watermelon to my co-workers again because they love it when I do.  Fox told me he is allergic to Goodwill and puts on this big act whenever I make them go. His throat starts to be itchy and he can't breathe. We might have to get him tested again...hahaha. We visited a lot of play places this summer to stay out of the heat. This was at a library and the kids played with this lite-brite forever. Finn...

August iPhone dump

A few of my favorite moments from August! Meet the teacher for the boys! I received this picture from Katie's wife, such a sweet bond they have. I'm also loving how his pajamas are inside out...haha. Walter came back to spend a few days with us! We watched him last summer, and the boys kept talking about him, so we were all so excited when his mom asked us to watch him for a few days. Notice Finn pouting. He was upset that Walter "only pays attention to Fox". So many big emotions in such a tiny body. Mr. Cool Guy at his dentist check up and teeth cleaning! I was trying to get some work done in my office, but this guy needed some attention. Finn made a bed for them, so they could sleep together. In the end, no one wanted to sleep there, but he was so happy to cuddle with Walter for a bit. My friend got me some comedy tickets to see "Nurse John", so I invited my two besties, and two of my old classmates, and we had a blast, he was so funny. We even got VIP acc...

March iPhone dump

A look back at the month of March! Fox and I had a few hours to ourselves while Finn was at a birthday party, and he wanted to go shopping at Target and get some Starbucks. Sounds like my kind of date! This is where you can find him most days, playing games with his friends online, while simultaneously being on facetime with them. When did he get so big? Family game night outside! My sour patch kid. He told me he will still cuddle with me until he is 42...haha! I've been having a really hard time sharing parenting time lately. It kills me every time when I have to drop them off every other week for a stretch of five days, and I have been getting anxiety attacks. I know they are well taken care of, I know they have fun there and don't even think about me, but it still sucks. Whenever I'm not with them, I'm at work, and I guess it's just been extra hard because I never had to be away from them as much as I have since becoming a nurse.  Fox brought this home from schoo...
