My Once Upon a Time...

I started to write down funny things that Finn said over the last year and I'm so glad I did, because I wouldn't remember any of them by now. Two year olds are funny! 24 months Alexa: "Do you want to hear me fart?" Finn: "Yes please!" "Darn it!" Me: "What are you dreaming about?" Finn: "Naps!" 25 months Me: "Alexa, shuffle my pandora stations!" Finn: "Play Lady Gaga!" "You’re a party pooper!" 26 months Me: "Finn, how old are you?" Finn: "7" Me: "7?!?!? When did that happen?" Finn: "At Beckys house!" 27 months "Thank you for making my smoothie, Mama. I love you!" 28 months Finn: "You go boy!" Me: "I’m not a boy, I’m a girl!" Finn: "You’re not a girl, you’re a Mama!"

My big THREE year old! We opened some presents and he was so excited about everything he got. Fox may have been excited about this marble run (that I scored on Facebook marketplace) as well.  A few months ago Katie told me that she had talked to Finn about his birthday party and that he wanted a poop party. Which was kind of funny, but also not very surprising, because Fox and him love to talk about poop and farts. Is this a boy thing?
