NUMBER 2 (for now)

All readers know that Lovey Dovey is Finley's number 1. However, what most readers likely do not know is that all of the stuffed (and "unstuffed") animals in Finley's crew all vie for who is number 2. For a long while, Sardine was number 2 but the torch has been passed to Green Dino - a gift from co-worker Anne who is determined to make Finny smile. It worked, Anne!

So what does Finny do with her number 2? Well go to the "Dino" park, of course! 

Way to go, Green Dino!


Wheeeeee, Green Dino!


What else does Finny do with her number 2? Hit the town, of course!

* Other lucky holders of the number 2 position: Tigger, Red Dino, Blue Dragon, Skunk.

MOMMY, I AM SWIMMING

So Finley has a very cautious relationship with water thus far. She likes to watch it for as long as possible, edge up to the perimeter, and just barely stick her fingers in. One of my favorite days of the summer was the day we went to the sprinkler park. 

STEP 1: Watch for about 35 minutes


STEP 2: Inch Closer


STEP 3: Dip the fingers in!


Mommy, "I'm swimming..." Well, not exactly:)

FLASH FINLEY

One of Finny's new favorites is running. Red Light. Green Light. On the sidewalk. Not in the street. Chase kids. Run around in Circles. Run run run. 

I don't want to go down the slide; I want to run!! ROAR


Chase me, Bodhi!

MY PARTNER IN CRIME


           One of the coolest things about being a mom is sharing experiences with Finley that I loved so much as a kid such as Daniel Tiger (formerly known as Mr. Roger's Trolley ride) at Idlewild Park (except now it is Daniel Tiger's Trolley ride.

Love you, Finny. Kisses on noses...

LOVEY GETS A BATH

Lev and Finley join forces to give Lovey a "bath." 

Is there anything better than playing with a hose? SPOILER ALERT: NO!

IT IS IN HER DNA

                                                                            

Considering she is her Pappy's granddaughter, I do not think anyone is surprised that one of Finley's favorite past-times is stacking books!
