Bill’s turn!

 Happy Birthday to Uncle Bill! 

My favorite part is at the end when he says “Hiawatha” which is a line from one of his current favorites, Crossing by Philip Booth.Hope you have a great day Bill – and Finn wishes you lots of cake! 

Happy Birthday Auntie Karen!

We’re not quite sure why Auntie Karen turned into Auntie “pill” but Leo and Finn thought it was the funniest thing in the world!Happy Birthday Karen! 

Birthday Take 2!

We got to celebrate Finn’s birthday (again!) tonight with Leo and yet another fire truck cake! Finn asked when we were getting the cake ready, “Am I still three Mummy?”

  

Allan’s Adventures in London

 

Allan had a great trip to London to see Joe & Brenda, Steven, and the Ireland/England rugby match (too bad about the score!). As you can see from his photos, he clearly found a lot of things to show Finn!

Three tractors on a flatbed, passed on the way to airport.

Finn selected elephant for Allan to bring with him on the trip. Here is is with Joe and Brenda:

And here he is napping with Uncle Stevie, or is that Allan??

Busy day in the city

Finn and I went to a puppet show this afternoon at the Brookline Puppet Showplace (thanks Kristen!). We saw Big Bad and Lil’ Red, an adaptation of Little Red Riding Hood and The Three Little Pigs that involved a very silly (not scary!) wolf and lots of pork jokes. It was a very funny show and made Finn giggle a lot!Finn and Silky on the subway: Despite now being the big 3 (he counted how many men were on the subway and included himself. “I’m a man mummy”) he still can pass out in the car after a busy adventure!  

Happy Third Birthday Finn!

Finn’s original request was for a strawberry flavored cake with pink icing shaped like a sheep! Thank goodness he settled on a fire truck! 

Thank you Grandma and Grandpa!

 Happiness is a new tractor (and yes I am wearing a happy birthday tiara!)

Checking out the tractor with Grandpa.

Finn and I went bowling this morning. I forgot how much fun it is! Can’t wait to go back…
