Updated Wish List

The Holiday Wish List Page has been updated, any gifts that have been purchased by adoring members of the Oliver Finn Fan Club have been taken off of the registry and the web site. Thank you so much for thinking of us, we can't tell you how much fun it is to see our handsome Christmas tree surrounded by a sea of presents.

And for those of you who prefer to keep an element of surprise, you can anonymously leave a comment on this post and I will remove any item you request from the web site and/or registries.

Happy Holidays!

ps. Yes, there's even a item that John (the fellow who is impossible to shop for because he already own everything he needs) has confessed to wishing for - a new pair of Warm Fuzzy Slippers!


Dear Santa,

We have been very good this year. The house is clean, our teeth are brushed, our beds are made more often than not, and we have eaten all the food our gardens and hen house could provide. We have swept the chimney for you, collected some apples for the reindeer and have found the grandest of trees to decorate in your honor.

Thank you kindly for visiting our farm,
We Three Sea Sprout Farmers : )

I think a few more layers of clothing are in order in honor of the first few flying flakes of snow. (Click on each item on the list)

Here is a great line of toys that The Boy would LOVE! (Click on each item)
          


                Green Garden Tractor
                      Water Blocks
                 Vegetable Garden
              Animal Memory Cards

Now that The Boy is active (almost walking - we believe it will be his New Years Resolution) and interested in everything new we are always looking for something to do. We have a daily routine that he does quite well with, but it is hard to add interests to daily duties. And now that the weather is cool, playing on the beach, sitting outside in the grass, and gardening are no longer an option.
One of his favorite things is to go to music class. We have been going to this weekly class called Music Together. We sing and dance and play instruments and anyone who knows me can imagine how important it is to me for him to grow up with music. This is a 10 week series and you can find the registration information by clicking on MUSIC TOGETHER
We would like to offer The Boy some swim lessons at the local gym. It's a brand new facility with a salt water pool. They have baby/infant class on Tuesday evenings that would be perfect for him. He loved swimming in the ocean this summer and has fun splashing around in the bath tub, but he doesn't have a place to swim until July and August when the ocean water is warm enough. You can find the registration information by clicking on SWIM LESSONS. 
Along those lines I would love to be able to renew my membership at the gym and pool at UNE. My dearest friend Julia and I used to swim 2 miles a morning in those lanes. I find myself day dreaming about the smell of chlorine more often as I am itching to get back in the pool. I haven't pulled on a swim cap for over a year! And to think I used to call myself a swimmer.... You can find membership information by clicking on POOL MEMBERSHIP

I have also been looking into schools for The Boy. We have a fabulous time together and I think I do a good job of reading books and playing games and music and overall learning to do new things. But, I almost feel like our daily life of breakfast, clean up, play, nap, grocery shopping, lunch, errands, play, dinner, clean up, time to play some more before bath and bed id getting boring. Routine is great, but part of the problem with having a routine is that it's hard to introduce or include new aspects of daily routines. I have really liked the Montessori principles and found and early childhood development school that I think he would love. I think he would really get a lot out of spending 1 or 2 mornings a week there. You can find more information by clicking on MONTESSORI SCHOOL


Lastly, John has requested this handsome piece of machinery to enhance the quality of work around the farm.



I hope the union elves don't strike again this year!

Happy Holidays
