Summer fun

Quinn making sure Buzz has a look at the fish at the zoo



Helping mommy cook, a new favorite


In the baby pool with cousin Christian

Cleaning outside toys turned into this...

Its hard to believe summer is almost over. We have had a good summer with a lot of outside and pool time. Quinn is almost 2 & 1/2. Some of his new things are:

-he knows all of his colors, not just primary colors
-he can count to 10 in english and spanish
-he is really into saying things are at home or here. Pretty much any question I ask if he did something at school he'll respond with no, he did that at home.
-he all of a sudden has a Cincinnati accent...long A's when he says that and back. So far those are the only words we have noticed this with.

We finished up our home study for adoption #2 and should be officially on the waiting list by mid-August, waiting for a referral. We should receive a referral probably between Feb. & April.

Happy 4th of July!

Waiting for the fireworks to start


People were letting off little fireworks and Quinn was really clingy and kept saying he wanted to go home.




But, then the fireworks started and he LOVED them!

We were not sure if Quinn would like fireworks or be afraid of them. We really didn't know how it would go since about 9:45 he was really clingy and kept saying he wanted to go home. But, luckily once the fireworks started he loved them.

We hope everyone had a happy and safe 4th of July!
