I've got an additional update for you, days after the last one! That is because one very important change has occurred -
Finn has a guitar.
Let me explain.
As has been mentioned, Finn loves all things noisy and musical. He LOVES when James plays his guitar and would watch for long periods of time, every now and then singing along. But, as with all things, he soon wanted to have a go himself. So James would let him bang the guitar while he played or feel the strings. This soon became a favourite game. But James was a bit wary of letting Finn have free-reign over his guitar. And these sorts of loves are only to be encouraged. So we decided to buy Finn a small guitar. It's officially classed as a toy because it is smaller than any real guitar could be, but it does have metal strings and is completely playable if a little hard to keep in tune. Finn loves his guitar more than anything and if it is anywhere in sight all other toys are completely forgotten. So we do have to hide it from time to time, especially if we want him to eat/be changed/read a book/ANYthing other than 'strum' his guitar (it's more like scratching and rubbing the strings, really).
Anyway, we brought it home and showed it to Finn - and he made his way across the room faster than I have ever seen him move! No more zombie crawling. If there is a Finn-sized guitar involved it means serious business. Neither of us had ever seen him move like this before so we can only blame the inspiration of the guitar. Of course we got out the camcorder to capture it! Soon I will post a video of him playing his guitar, but for now, here he is speeding across the floor to get it.
And while I'm posting videos - here's one I forgot before... a compilation of Finn making silly noises :o)
