One

Quinn,
You are one! How can that be? This year flew by faster than ever. Who was once our sweet quiet little baby is now a loud, rambunctious, funny toddler. You are full of it. We are always saying how you walk around like you own this place. You come walking down the hallway shaking your pointed finger, blabbering about something. If you are angry you let us know it. You are just plain loud. You are funny though. You like to climb on the steps to Ellie's bed. Thankfully you haven't fallen yet because it is pretty steep. You like to play in cabinets and get all. You like to play in the toilet. You also enjoy eating any dirt, sand or rocks you can get your little hands on. You know it is naughty. You will look right at us while you throw two fistfuls of sand in your mouth. I can't wait until this phase is over. You always seem to be pretty grubby because of this habit of yours.  Your diapers are sandy! You like clapping at things and waving goodbye, good night and hello. You might be saying hi and bye but not consistently. You certainly do say a lot, we just don't know what it is quite yet. You eat a lot of different types of food. You like it when we chase you. Most of the time instead of turning and running the other way, you charge right at us. You aren't scared. The only times you really try to run away is if you have something of Patchy's or Ellie's and they are chasing you to get it. Then you run like the wind. You are feisty and rough. You like to wrestle around with Patch.  If I'm cuddling with Patch or Ellie you come over and try to push them away with all of your angry sounds . Your eyes are still blue and your hair is coming in blonde. You have a great hairstyle. It just sticks right up. Wild and cute...just like you. You have this fake cry where you pucker your lips and you kind of hoot like an owl. You love your Daddy and get upset when he leaves for work. When he picks you up, you like to give him pats on the back. You only do that to Daddy. It is your special thing.  You are just so much fun, Quinn. We all love you so much. You can turn anybody's bad moods around in a jiffy. Happy birthday, little Quinnie!
