Bold Move

Quinn and I are visiting Ross and family in Utah and last night we went to watch Sami play in a soccer scrimmage. Quinn was having a great time on the playground duplicating all the moves the big boys were making. It was especially heart stopping for mama because it had just rained so everything was slick.

In this photo, I had asked him not to climb up there. He just gave me a small liitle smile and climbed right up.

Mister Handsome

Quinn loves:

– playing outside
– riding his scooter
– Thomas, Buzz Light Year, Nemo, wall-E, etc, etc, etc
– slow mornings cuddling with mama or papa
– cheese, chocolate milk, and strawberries (not necessarily in that order)
– cookies (which we call fig newtons (yes, a bad trick on Quinn))
– all the things I didn\’t mention, and

hanging out at the pool….

Thanks Stacey for a great picture.

Art Installation

I thought it would be fun to put some homemade art work in Quinn\’s playroom. I bought a couple of canvases and had Sullivan paint one while she was here. We asked her to paint something that Quinn would like and she hit the nail right on the head with a rocket ship. We gave her free reign and I think she did a pretty fantastic job. Notice the craters she painted in the moon.

I then chose the same colors that Sullivan used and had Quinn do his own painting. Quinn kept talking about Sullivan\’s rocket but said the orange rocket ship looking thing in the lower right area was a waterfall. Rocket ship or waterfall? He also painted the Q himself. I urged him to paint a Q and also re-dip his brush in the paint but it was all him.

I love how they turned out and they look great in Quinn\’s playroom.
