I am writing this while Finn is already 13.5 months old. I had high hopes of photographing Finn in his birthday t-shirt that I made for him along with the gold star balloons from his party, but I never got around to it and our lives got busy and I got very good at making…Continue Reading “Finn | 1 Year”
This has been a very grown-up month for my Finn! One of my favorite things he’s been doing is pointing at everything! It’s so cute. He points at things he finds interesting, things he wants, things he’s scared of, and things he’s curious about. When we read books (which he’s really been enjoying lately) he…Continue Reading “Finn | 11 Months”
We are officially walking!!!!! Well I have been walking for something like 30 years, but Finn has been a walker for two whole weeks or there about. He is also flashing around 6 teeth, most of which are coming in from the top. He loves to very deliberately isolate his index finger (or occasionally his…Continue Reading “Finn – 10 Months”
The other day Steven asked me “Do you realize it’s only a few months until Finn’s first birthday?” I then replied “Hush your mouth!!!” Finn has reached new levels of cuteness and bigness this month. He took his first step a few weeks ago and he can now take anywhere from 3-10 steps in a…Continue Reading “Finn | 9 Months”
Finn’s amazing qualities just shine brighter as he gets older and I continually fall more in love with him. He has a sweet, contented disposition and a strong, steady determination that keeps him trying and trying no matter what until he masters something. He has mastered crawling and has even mastered standing! He can pull himself up from…Continue Reading “Finn | 8 Months”
Here we are… half a year old!!! Nah… I think I’ll remain comfortably here in my realm of “denial.” I think we finally have a teether on our hands. Finn has been overall a very chill, happy baby, so it’s odd to have him fussing constantly. He will barely let me out of his sight,…Continue Reading “Finn | 6 Months”
Based on how often I find myself writing these updates, I should start planning Finn’s first birthday already. But for reals… time goes a gazillion times faster when you have your second kid. I was just realizing that we’re less than a month away from Finn’s 1/2 year. That’s insane to me! The timing of my…Continue Reading “Finn | 5 Months”
My big little. I call Miles my little big and Finn is my big little. Somehow that makes sense to me. Finn amazes me. Motherhood is almost a brand new experience this time around. Seeing each of my boys develop their own personality and quirks and imagining what passions they will discover as their sponginess expands…Continue Reading “Finn | 4 Months”
The first three months of Finn’s life have shot past me at lightning speed. I was so busy just keeping my two kids alive and making sure I remembered to feed them, I didn’t have time to notice how much Finn had grown! Then we visited my family and had a chance to meet the…Continue Reading “Finn | 3 Months”
This month seemed to speed by. It was characterized by growth spurts and the resolution of things that were confusing during that first month. He spit up less, he learned to latch better and seemed to grow more accustomed to the outside world. At his 2-month well visit (which actually occurred around 10 weeks) his…Continue Reading “Finn | 2 Months”
