Day 58 - Finnegan the Dino Rider

Our sweet little Finn was born 3 years ago today, which is a testament to that whole "time flies" thing.  

I may be partial, but I think he is one of the cutest little guys on the planet.  Since Finn and I have only known each other for such a short time, I don't have tons of examples to give about our relationship like I will when it is his Mama Beck's birthday.  Instead, I will provide a bulleted list of things that make him a supremely awesome little human...
  • He loves reading, so much so that he insists that he brings books to bed with him.  
  • He is a thoughtful little guy; when he and Mama were out he found a toy he wanted to buy for Sophie.  It is still one of her favorite things to play with.
  • He knows how to work the system.  One time when he was over, Mama told him that if he wanted to play with cars, he had to do it at the table.  If he wanted to play with Sophie, he had to leave his cars on the table.  This was not acceptable to Finn because he REALLY wanted to be able to see his cars no matter where he was, so he said "Hey Auntie Sassy, want to play with Sophie?" and I said "Sure", at which point he handed me the bag of cars and said "Here, carry these!"
  • He throws the horns on demand.
  • He helps pick up his toys.
  • He goes to bed without crying.
  • He gives REALLY good hugs.
  • He is crazy about his Auntie Shonna. Amidst all of the chaos of his birthday party yesterday, he kept asking for her.  It was so stinking cute. I think he is going to ask her to marry him pretty soon. I can't say that I blame him as she will make an excellent Sugar Mama.

Here is a picture of the little man and I on the night he was born:

Here is a picture of Finn and his favorite McCone.  When he wants to come over he tells Beck "Are we going to Sophie's house?"
