Big night out!!!!

Better late than never!
The whole family (less Shadow) had a night out Saturday to visit Derek, Heather and "little" Finley.
Let me tell ya, Joshua has met his match and then some for strength. Finley is as strong as she is beautiful and is already standing totally upright on her own at 2 months so long as someone is there to balance.
She was kind enough to share all her cool toys with Joshua, this kick exerciser being the most popular with the LBM (though the multiple forearm shivers across Finley's face wasn't the best flirting tactic Joshua)
Josee and Joshua stuck around until the start of the final clinching game for the Sens over the Devils (thanks to Finley and her lucky Jersey) and then I got to stick around afterwards to hang out with The Cotton family and Brian and Tom. Lotsa fun and a very successful first ever playdate for Joshua with any other baby.
We've also got some spectacular photos taken by Derek with his high end digital that may sneak their way on here and facebook soon.
It was *so* neat to see Finley and see where Joshua may be just a month from now. She was so alert and aware of her surroundings (especially when we woke her up for the photo ops.
Amazing little/big girl!

And also had to chuck up the picture of Uncle Brillo hanging out with Joshua. This photo preceded Brian holding Joshua over his shoulder but turning in to talk and taking a quick snap headbutt to the jaw. Luckily Brian is used to his friends doing the same in sparring matches so he just laughed it off.
Joshua was quite fascinated!

Many more pics to come!
