Second Grade Quinn!

His teacher this year is Ms. Virgen and I\’ve been told she is very kind and warm with the kids. So far she has been great and I really like her.

There are only 2 kids from Quinn\’s 1st grade class in this years class but he has a couple of other friends in the class. In fact he\’s sitting next to a teammate, Michael, from t-ball 2 years ago and the teacher told me that they are getting along great.

In fact Quinn played a little prank on Michael on the first day. When Michael went to sit in his chair, Quinn put his head on the chair and Michael sat on his head. They both thought it was hilarious 🙂

His after school request was gelato and chess. He was tired of losing chess to his dad so he thought he would play me so he could win. Somehow I won. I\’m not sure how that happened.

The new school hat that all the cool kids are wearing.

A California Road Runner running across our driveway

Our little dog whisperer loves going to the park and petting all the dogs. One of his favorites is that tiny white dog Romeo.

Enjoying miso soup and a california roll.

He bet his dad that he could sleep in a pillow case all night. If he did, he got to pick one new app. He won.

He has his giant bug-o-pedia book and his junior entomologist shirt and is ready for the Santa Barbara Natural History Museum.

Nothing like huge rocks all over the place with a sign that says CLIMB. His favorite.

Now at the library park with his giant bug-o-pedia book.

We have made many trips to the library this summer and have checked out lots and lots of books. It\’s been a good summer of reading.

Down to Ventura for some fresh sea air and play.

These two Parkour wherever they go.

And this happened.

Quinn went to a Science Space Camp in July and also to a Parkour camp for just a couple of mornings. It was pretty cool.

Mornings in our house.
