our little entertainer

Finley is the most hilarious person. Seriously, she has me laughing all day long. I’m fully aware that the following information is most likely only funny to me because a) i’m her mama, and b) i’m nearly delirious from cabin fever (on our 6th day stuck at home alone). Nonetheless, here are some snippets from the Finley show:

-her dancing. oh, her dancing! She stars as both the D.J. and the dancer. Her moves would definitely get her straight through to Las Vegas on SYTYCD. Check out the video below to see her new ballerina move.
-she burns lots of energy running laps around the upstairs while pushing random objects in the doll stroller. Some of my favorites have been her dirty socks, a string cheese wrapper, and the watering can.
-she has turned into quite the informant. if we leave out one of our glasses or mugs that she’s not allowed to touch she’ll point to it and say “uh oh”. If we leave the toilet seat up she says, “ewwww”. and don’t forget to shut the baby gate…she’ll walk by, say “oh dear”, and close it herself. today, she reached for the diaper champ, stopped mid air and said “ewwww”.
-fascination with urination. during her bath she stands up numerous times to pee and watch it come out. it’s sort of gross, because i had no idea she peed so much in the bath, but a little pee never hurt anyone, right?
-her new favorite book is the photo album of her. we’ve read a lot less books around here lately because all she wants to do is stare at pictures of herself. i can’t figure out why…but certain photos make her laugh (and her fake laugh is funny on it’s own), and she’ll give some photos a kiss. how vain!

-just call her Linus. the girl LOVES her blanket. the other day i already had her blanket loaded in the car (we have two) and i went to take finley outside. not knowing it was waiting for her in the car, she thought we were leaving without it. she arched out of my arms, grabbed the door jam, and produced huge alligator tears in record time. and it’s getting worse. today she cried when i left it in her bedroom while we headed downstairs to play. once she starts playing, she forgets about it…so i guess she just wants to know it’s nearby. but this is going from funny/cute to i think her heart might stop beating if anything ever happened to her precious blankie.

Like I said, you probably don’t see the humor in these things. And maybe you’re wondering why the heck i’m writing about my daughter pushing her socks in the stroller. I guess my point is just to say, that it’ so fun watching Finley go from a baby to a little girl that is FULL of personality.
Here are some pictures of us trying to stay sane, while trapped at home.
stuck in the snow! it’s over a foot deep!
she waved and grunted at her little car long enough, that i finally unearthed it from the large ice cube it was stuck in.
Here she is mixing some beats at her table.
And here she is taking her socks for a stroll.

This is what you get if you ask her to smile.

Here’s another video of her dancing and she’s got some different moves this time.

  2. wow megs. i normally just hear from hillary about how funny finley is… but there were multiple times that i almost wet my pants i was laughing so hard. she is quite the character. the socks and string cheese wrapper… the dancing… and all her little sayings. hopefully isabella will turn out to have just as much personality.
