Quinn Quinn Quinn

One night the girls were messing around in Quinn's crib. Ellie was playing following the leader with Quinn and Quinn was the leader. Quinn has been able to use the chair to get into her crib for a while now. She will usually go in there sometime during the day to find her mimis but she usually shouts for us to come and get her out. This night when she had her sis in there to give her extra courage, she climbed/fell out of the crib and laughed! She did it a few times. She laughed and laughed. This was the end of it. Now she comes out at least one time every night when we put her down, multiple times before she will take a nap and she comes out with her cute little wave bright and early every morning. Little stinker.

Another thing to note about Quinn right now is that she has her own little pose for the camera. If I ask her to smile she cranks neck down to the side and says cheese. I have no idea why or when she started doing this but a majority of the pictures we take of our crazy little nut these days look like this.....

Christmas 2015

Christmas was wonderful this year with both sets of grandparents in town. We had our annual cousin Christmas exchange at Grandma's on Christmas Eve and then a nice relaxing day at home on Christmas Day.

 

 

The Polar Express and Snow!

We went up to Flagstaff to do the Polar Express this year with Mommom and Poppy. It was the best. The kids were so good and were so excited to see the snow. We told them on the way up that we were going to do the Polar Express too. Mommom bought them some matching pajama outfits. We stayed at the Grand Canyon Railroad hotel. We had dinner and jumped on the train. It was so neat to watch their faces. Especially Patchy. He was so shocked when he heard that Santa got on the train!! They sang their little hearts out on the way back to the hotel. It took a while for them to fall asleep but they were pretty good even with all the excitement. When we arrived in Flagstaff there was some snow on the ground but it was a week old and slippery and hard. We were so lucky because when we woke up in the morning there was a new coat of snow! We found a hill and met some friends who build some really fun snow jumps that Patchy loved. They shared their sleds and the kids had a fun time. We built a new Rosey the snowman before we went back to the hotel to pick up Quinn, Mommom and Poppy. It was so nice to have them with us to experience the fun and the kids excitement!
