Pre-Party Presents!

Before Finley's birthday party on Sunday morning, we carved out some time for his out-of-town guests to give Finley their gifts.  He got some fun musical flutes for the bathtub from Aunt Ellie (thank goodness for some tub toy variety!).  Pan-Pa and GG had two big boxes for Finley to open.  The first was a warm, snuggly stroller cover so we can take long winter walks (okay, that was more on my birthday list that Finley's, but he'll appreciate it soon enough).  Inside the second box was Finley's very own rolling suitcase with a removable backpack.  He couldn't wait to take it out for a spin!
We told him it was for going on airplanes and now when he pulls it around, he says "Airport, jetway, pilot!"  He's already checked to see if his two loveys fit inside (and they do!).
My sister also gave him her present, which Dan had kindly assembled the night before.  A gorgeous, shiny, red Schwinn tricycle!!
While he doesn't quite understand the purpose of the pedals yet, with some basement practice this winter--he'll probably be ready to hit the sidewalks in the spring!  
He's already mastered ringing the bike bell so that's a step in the right direction.  Thank you, Aunt Caitlin!!
