New Toy!

It's so amazing how once you start to understand your kid's "language" you realize they are saying all sorts of cute stuff. The other day we were riding in the car and Finn says "Mama! We're in the car!" Today we were in the car and he took off his shoes and started playing with his toes, saying "wee, wee, wee." He was trying to do the little piggies rhyme! He's been working on learning songs lately too. He will sing "Row Row Row Your Boat" and "The Wheels on the Bus" but his favorite is still the ABC song.

Another "cute" thing he did the other day while Scott was watching him was to take off his diaper and hide it. Scott couldn't find it anywhere until he went to the bathroom. He lifted the lid of the toilet and sure enough it was in there! I guess since Finn always sees me rinsing off his cloth diapers in there he thought that was where they went!

Another "Finnism" lately is whenever he is looking for something (shoes, keys, whatever), he will run around the house shouting "____ WHERE ARE YOU?" And, although he still answers "no" to just about everything, he has also taken to answering "okay," BUT he does so in this really loud voice! It's more of "OOOOH-KAY!" Very cute.

Anyway, Finn's granny bought him a new toy this week--a water slide! We pumped it up last night so he could play. However, we couldn't fit the hose on the nozzle, so we just let him play with the hose while on it. Eventually he just got so interested in the hose that it was all he wanted to play with. He even ended up hosing down his granny. Here are some pics and a video!
