Surprise!!!!!!!!!  For me? Well, I guess Ben can pull one over on me.  I didn't think he had it in him. But he does, and he is slick. Ben told me he was throwing us a party....just me and him and the kids.  I was thinking, oh this is gonna be work (extra groceries, extra special dinner, probably crying kids cuz dinner is late).  Then it turned out he "had to help his cousin" and would be home late!  Oh well, I put on my comfy clothes and lounged with the kids.  Although it was impossible not to notice that he had clean the entire house while I was at work--every room. Oh, and I noticed he did do some prep work for dinner too. Hmm. I guessed he really wanted to have party. Then I heard him pull up. He comes in and says something to the effect that I might want to get out of my jammies.  Someone is here. I assume it's Jacob and run to my room (so much for the party..)...but wait.  This is what is waiting for me in the living room when I return...

Little bug-a-boo The begining of a great friendship!!!! Now those are some cuties!!! My precious

Finn is recovering (we used teh antibiotics after all) and his arm is close to back to normal (9 days after injection).  No more DTaps for him. Before school this morning My kitchen (yep, for real) Go Finnley, go!!!! Hey-- who's driving? Well, it's not Rosaleen driving.....

  Yesterday Finnley went in for a 14 month check up (really it was an appointment for his Dtap since we only did MMR at his 12 mo).  He is a big dude.  26 pounds and 32 inches. WHAT--32 inches, that is about how tall Rosaleen was at 18 months.      She we did the weight, length, vaccine and then left.  We took Finnley to school and it just so happened to be the day we were taking Rosaleen to the water park.  More on the water park below. Pick up Finn at the end of the day, he is in a good mood, but I notice injection site is red.  Ok, no biggie.  Wake up today, the injection site is hot and swollen.  We give him some Advil and send his to school.  I pick him up and find this.......  Honestly, you can't tell how huge his arm is in the picture.  His whole shoulder is the size of a baseball and is swollen to his neck and down to his elbow.   So, off to the doctor.  Now we are icing ...
