Finny Pic Request

Here are some new pictures of the little madman!
Special request from Auntie G and Grandpa Ekern.
Newsflash that Greta can CONFIRM:

Finn now Moooo's like a Cow and Meow's like a Cat. And it EVEN sounded like he said "Greta" on the phone tonight. Doggie for Wallace sounds like "GaGa" and a FFFFssshhh sound makes up Fish!

And there is always CAR! CAR! CAR! Which if anyone out there that has spent anytime with this little guy knows that word is THE word of the moment.

HEY LOOK - A CAR!


FINN - HOW OLD ARE YOU?
LIKE MY NEW CHAIR?


I STILL LOVE READING BOOKS! (MUCH TO MAMA'S DELIGHT)
