I swear Finn has grown so much lately. He’s turning into a little boy right before my eyes. Just look at this soon to be 2 year old…
Our bathroom gets the best light and I couldn’t help but capture these images after a shower this morning. Add a hooded chicken towel, and there you have it… pure yummy goodness.
I’ve got a second birthday to plan and I can hardly wait! His birthday is in July and I’m already gathering ideas and saving inspiration.
One of the things I love about being a mom lately is watching Finn and our chocolate lab, Hannah blossom into lifelong friends. Hannah, went from being one of the worlds most spoiled dogs (complete with her own Easter baskets, Christmas stocking, and birthday celebrations) to being a big sister. It was traumatic for her – to say the least – when that fair skinned, bald-headed, chubby monster came into our lives. She avoided him like the plaque.
And now, they have learned to entertain each other, laying side by side watching cartoons, chasing balls, playing keep-away, and sharing snacks. I’ve been trying to document their love for one another on Instagram and wanted to share some of my favorites here on the blog. Enjoy:
Finn and I dyed Easter eggs this morning and I think he really enjoyed himself. He was in charge of the wire loop that pulls the eggs out of the water, and he spent most of the time dipping it in each colored filled bowl and tasting it. Luckily I don’t use any vinegar or it wouldn’t have tasted very good.
^ When we were through, we piled the dried eggs neatly in some bowls and Finn decided he had to “taste” them too.
All in all, I think he enjoyed himself. We’ve been practicing hunting for candy filled eggs this week in hopes that Easter morning will go a bit smoother. (He takes awhile to warm up around more than a few people, even when it’s family).
We also visited the Easter bunny at the mall, which didn’t go all that well…
Let’s hope after he receives his basket full of candy and toys that he changes his mind.
Happy Easter everyone!
