Big Boy

Quinn is talking non-stop now.  He is stringing several words together and sometimes speaks in full sentences.  He pronounces words well, but some of his baby words are adorable.  Until recently, he was calling a hamburger "haga-burga".  Cookies are "tookies".  Instead of peekaboo, he says, "teekaboo".

He has favorite toys, too.  His blue minky blanket is non-negotiable at bedtime.  He also loves his stuffed raccoon and teddy bear.  His favorite past-time is looking at books.  He constantly wants to be read to and looks at them on his own at naptime, bedtime, and in the car.

Quinn is interested in anything that goes as well.  Planes, trains, trucks, tractors, and everything else.  He's been trying to figure out his tricycle lately so that he can pedal like Mia does on her bike.  He hasn't worked it out yet, but I'm sure it won't be long.  Another fave is superheroes.  He knows Spiderman and Batman.  He likes the others as well, but he's still learning their names.

He loves to be a helper.  This is very helpful when I'm doing laundry.  He likes to help me sort the clothes, but we differ in opinion sometimes on which clothes go in each pile.  I have to pass each article of clothing to him from the washing machine so that he can put them in the dryer one at a time.  Sometimes laundry takes awhile.  It's funny to me that a pile of clean laundry attracts him like a magnet.  If I carry a load of clean clothes into the living room and put them on the couch, I have to fold/hang them up immediately.  I usually do that anyway, but if I don't hurry, he climbs on top of the pile and makes himself comfortable.  Haha!
Q likes to play with the iPad
The boy loves him some Mexican food.
 Wesley helped Mia and Quinn string together some of Q's riding toys so that they could have their very own train.
