What a busy week!

My Dear Quinn,
I am finding that my days are so full, and very busy playing with you, that I have not been the best at updating our blog! You fill my days with so much fun, and laughter! I love every single second I get to spend with you!

Last week started Daddy's summer vacation! He is so excited to be able to spend more time with you! On Tuesday we got up and went out to breakfast and then we got to take Daddy to story hour at the Royersford Library, and it was obvious you LOVED having him there with you!

Ali's Daddy was even able to come this week! It was so fun to meet him! 
Over the last month or so, we have been trying to get your playroom in order! Now that you have gotten to be SO big, we spend so much of our time playing and we needed a fun and comfy room just for you! We have filled it with lots of toys and books, and have even decorated it with your artwork! You LOVE to finger paint, and together we make a painting each month! We were starting to have quite a collection, so we needed somewhere to display your masterpieces, so I made a special place on the wall!

Thursday of last week was an especially fun day! Because we go to the library every week for story hour, and music class, your friend's mommies and I thought you should all have special bags to hold the books you borrow from the library! This sounds like a fantastic idea right?! We thought so too...
Well, it turns out you and your friends weren't so sure! We had lots of bright colors for you all to paint with. We had brushes, and we even used your hands and feet, but I think the fun was just too much for you all! It didn't take long before the four of you were crying and melting down! But somehow... we managed to create four beautiful bags that will get to hold lots of wonderful books very soon!





We ended the week by taking a surprise trip to Willow Grove. Friday was Grandparent's day at Nana's school and you went to surprise her! She was SO surprised. She loved showing you off to everyone at her school. Everyone absolutely loved you.. but really... can we blame them?! :)  Afterwards we got dinner at Olive Garden before we headed home. You were exhausted after a very long day!





This weekend you and I were very excited because your friends, their mommies AND their daddies came over to our house to cookout! While we waited for everyone to get here, Daddy caught a picture of the two of us playing "peek a boo" with your new play house! It is one of your favorite games right now! I go on one side, and you sit on the other, and we open and close the door, saying "peek a boo!" I love how you give me a HUGE grin and giggle! There is nothing in the world as sweet as your laugh!

 It was really nice for all of the dads to finally meet the babies, moms and other dads! I know they have heard so much about everyone! Daddy grilled hamburgers and hotdogs and Miss Susan, Miss Jodi and Miss Amber brought yummy sides and desserts! It has taken almost three months of knowing each other, but we finally got a picture of you four, adorable babies together! I love seeing the four of you together! You are such a fun group and you are all growing and changing so quickly. It is so fun to see your little friendships already forming, and how excited you get when you see each other. I love that you are making such wonderful friends and I am so very thankful that I met their mommies! They are an amazing group of women and I feel so very blessed to have made such wonderful friends here in PA! 



We ended the weekend by going to church, and going out to lunch. When we came home, we were all obviously VERY tired from the past few days because we all napped for several hours! That is a VERY rare occurrence in this house! Later that evening, Daddy and I wanted to get out of the house for awhile so we made a run to Target, where we bought you the drum set that your friend Stella has! We had SO much fun playing with it when we got home! You seemed to know how to use it right away without us even having to show you how!




Thank you for such a wonderful week my sweet girl! Every day I am reminded of what a blessing I have been given to have you and Daddy in my life, even if it is the most routine and ordinary of days. I love you to the moon and back my sweet girl!
