This post is a bit of a catch up since I haven't posted in a few weeks. It is finally feeling like summer here. It still gets cold at night but the day time is perfect. It stays light so late, the sun doesn't set until after 9 every night. Tomorrow is my last day of work and Quinn's last day of daycare until August. I am so excited for all the fun to begin!! We have so many plans this summer, I can't wait!!!
A few weekends ago we went to Denver to meet the newest addition of the family, baby Braxton. She is the cutest thing! It was a great weekend and I am excited we get to go visit again shortly. We relaxed, played kick ball, made smores and went to the aquarium. Dave and Quinn got soaked at the aquarium at the flood exhibit and Quinn was traumatized. I hope that she doesn't remeber it! After the soaking she was not interested in seeing any fish or getting close to the tanks. Marcel and Reese are getting so big and they are such a great help with the babes of the fam. Quinn didn't really pay much attention to Braxton but she did however steal her pacifier. She loved that thing.
This past Sunday it was HOT so we went and bought Quinn a little pool with a slide. That might have been a bad idea because I think all I am going to do all summer is help her up that slide. She loved the pool. Her swimsuit is a 12-18 month but it does not hold in her belly.
Daddy helping Q down the slide. She will actually let me put a hat on her now.
Charlie had a plastic pool that got broke in the move, I should have submitted to TMO :). We need to get him a new one because I don't want them to be sharing a pool all summer. The amount of hair he loses is out of control. These two absolutely love each other!
After a bit of swimming while daddy washed all 3 of the cars (I had to make sure Quinn was safe....) we ran some errands and then had dessert on the back patio. Q is a big fan of anything sweet. Currently her favorite foods include: cheese, bread, guacamole, hummus, blueberries and any dessert. She is a pig, the amount of food she eats amazes me. She is eating out of my bowl. Since she feeds herself now she will NOT allow you to feed her anything. This includes if you are just giving her a bite of your food. She will just steal it and begin to chow down.
This is what will happen if you press your face against the fire pit cover.
Like I said, tomorrow is Q's last day of daycare until August. They are not able to guarantee that she will get back in the same room (or that they will have a spot at all but we are taking our chances....) which makes me so sad. When we moved rooms I was upset and missed her old teachers but her new teachers have been AMAZING. For a gift we got them a bubble cup (which you can freeze and no need for ice!) filled with candy, a gift card to the local cupcake bakery and a note that says "Thank you for being so "sweet" this year. Have a great summer. Love Quinn."
There is a quick review on what we have been up to. We have lots of fun summer plans that I will try and keep you all updated on.
Summer is good, life is good.
