4 months, baptism, happy baby

i feel as though poor finn really has gotten the shaft in so many ways. he gets shuttled from one place, then the next, sleeps on the fly, eats on the fly and then shuttled back again! i realize he is the third, and by birthright is going to have to learn to go with the flow, but my "type a self" has such a hard time with his lack of schedule. every time he falls asleep in the car, or the bjorn or while i'm holding him while the kids swim i feel so guilty. jack and daley always had their schedule and routine, and i feel strongly that finn deserves the same, but i just don't know how to get us all on the same page!?

on another note, he is such a happy little guy. unless he's hungry or has gas, he's pretty even-keeled. of course we are recently beginning to teeth and we all know all bets are off when it comes to teething!

finn was also baptized on june 22nd. it was a nice day spent with close family and friends. finn has two amazing godparents whom we are lucky to call our dear friends. everything went smoothly and we can rest assured that finn won't go up in flames anytime soon;)

finally, i cannot believe he is four months old. it just goes by way too quickly. i keep looking at him thinking he's still this small little six pounder i brought home, but in all honesty he's this chubby, smiley, bubble blowing little guy. *sigh* if only he was no longer sleeping like a newborn;)



pool time!





god parents, ken & erin



and of course this one just for good measure!

  2. Dear Finn,
    You are the sweetest, happiest and cutest baby. We love you and want to spend every minute we can with you. Each day one of us will make a comment about who you look like, and it is always today you look like...daddy, or Apa, Poppy or Jack or even Daley, but mostly you look like you, Finnegan John Taylor or just Finn.

    You have been visiting us quite a bit and we are thrilled, we watch everything you do and of course Jack and Daley announce everything you do. They are crazy for you, they are always tryng to get you to laugh, talk or smile. They yell mom.......MiMi Finn is crying, hurry up get him or Finn just smiled or Finn just spit up or Finn is fussing. They are your other parents and they can't leave you alone for a second. They get so excited whenever you do something new.
    Just this morning Jack came running upstairs and he said "MiMi you have to come downstairs right away Finn is going to roll over"
    When I got into the family room there you were on your side, trying to get over and there was Jack and Daley just sitting there watching and waiting for you to do it. It was so cute. You have your own fan club and audience. Jack makes funny faces at you and you shriek and smile and you also get very excited. You are our Finney Finn Finn.

    You have the best smile, you love to be outside and you are very content unless it's time for you to eat, which just happens to be just about every 2 hours. When you see mom and its time for you to eat you get so excited and you make the funniest noises as if you haven't seen her or had anything to eat in long time.

    I love to watch you try to get things in your mouth or how you respond to your siblings. you are growing so fast and getting so big. You have the best chubby cheeks and thighs. You love to have a bath and get so excited when you know it's time. I can't wait to see what you will do to entertain us tomorrow. Everyday is a blessing and you are our miracle. We love you like crazy cakes. You are so special and I can't wait to see what you will be like and what you will like to do as you grow.I love you to the moon and back.
    Love,
    MiMi
