Latest News

Well, the latest news with us is that we are moving to Austin on Friday! We are very excited- even though I feel I have moved way too much over the past year and a half. We are very fortunate that Rick has a job in Austin and we have a nice new townhome in the Steiner Ranch area. I am looking for a teaching job and Rick is thinking about going back to school for environmental engineering at night and working during the day. Finn is excited to move and wants to paint his new room red and decorate it with racecars. I am going to have to veto that idea- I am all about freedom of expression but I don't want to get Finn all new decorations for his room (he has surfer stuff right now)or raise the next Nascar fan. We will have to work on a compromise.

Finn had his last creative movement class yesterday and they had a farewell celebration for him- he is really going to miss that class. I don't think he is going to miss his Mother's Day Out that much. I think he tolerated being there but is going through a (3 year) phase where he hates being away from me. I signed Finn up for t-ball for this summer- his first game is June 20th. I am very interested to see what a t-ball game consisting of 3 year old players is like. He has been practicing on his t-ball set but does not like to be tagged out.

Finn got to take his picture with the Easter bunny, and was so excited about it. he held his hand most of the time. Finn has started dreaming lately- maybe he always has but he has just started talking about his dreams when he wakes up and saying off the wall stuff. Last night he told me to get that bad porcupine out of his room. Finn's new favorite thing to say is "I have an idea." And then he will suggest some oddball idea- like "I have an idea, lets jump off the dinig room table." um. no.
Last night he was so funny. Finn was crying over something- can't remember what it was. He said ."I have an idea, I need something to calm me down." This seemed so grown-up to me and I didn't really knwo what he was talking about until he went and got his pacifier to put in his mouth. He is so funny nowadays and he is always cracking me up.

Hope everybody has a Happy Easter! I will post Finn's Easter pics next week.
