Letters and Sounds

Quinn loves the alphabet and all the sounds each letter makes. We have alphabet magnets on the refrigerator and he likes to collect ALL of them in his Hess dump truck and go through them making the sound each letter makes. He also loves tracing letters.

We were up late the other night and I captured Quinn having fun with his letters.

Lady Liberty

Stacey and Sullivan visited last week and they really wanted to make a trip to the Statue of Liberty. We had a false start on Wednesday due to someone staying up too late the night before and another little someone getting up very early that morning. We were happy we didn\’t go on Wednesday because it poured down rain. We finally made it on Friday. It was hot and crowded but always worth the trip. A bonus for Sullivan was a Barbie exhibit at Ellis Island with Barbie\’s from around the world.

The top three pictures are from my iphone. This application gives the pictures a throwback feel to an older film camera. I love this picture.

I posted this picture on Facebook and got lots of comments that Quinn looks just like me. Maybe I need to do a \”Like Mother, Like Son\” post. You can see I dressed him in a very bright outfit. One of my mom tricks that I use when I know it\’s going to be crowded and I want to be able to spot him quickly.

I was lying in the grass to get all of Lady Liberty in the picture and my little man was climbing all over me. We were having a great time!

Stacey and Sullivan were having fun with poses. This one turned out very cute. While Stacey was here we also created a watermark for her now that she has started blogging.

This is for Don

Don has been working very hard at teaching Quinn his full name and birth date. I\’m working on age with the display of fingers. So far I\’m on 2 days with 4 fingers 🙂 Today for the first time I heard Quinn say his full name and birth date. If you know what they are, you should be able to understand him. This is a *very* quick video.
