Quinlan has been growing into his awesome Vancouver Olympics sweatshirt. Q's Quatchi sweatshirt came from his Pops and Nona Stina, who attended The Games last winter. He proudly wore his namesake on his chest in the morning, since we have experienced some wonderfully cooler weather here in Austin.
Quin is an avid reader like both of his parents. He frequently brings books to one of us to read to him, and then he often takes the book to the other one to have it reread. Cuddling and reading are favorite pastimes for us all.
Before going out last Saturday, Q played with his reflection in the mirror. He still seems to love watching himself and often finds a surface that reflects to play with.
Q went out with us on Saturday to attend the local Pflugerville Chamber of Commerce Expo. He did well spinning promotional wheels at various tables, but really loved people-watching, as long as the person he was watching had a dog with them.
After a long morning, filled with many cool new toys, Q clung to his Mom and didn't want to explore the cool big trucks that were at the Expo. Maybe next year.
I didn't get a photo of it, but Q "borrowed" a deck of cards for the card game, Phase 10, tonight and ripped open the box to play with the cards. I avoided my initial response of frustration, picked up the cards and showed him some that were similar, explaining that we promise to teach him when he gets just a little older. The box says 8 years old, but I think he will be ready before then. It was very cute, and he even did okay when I took them away. Of course, his Mom suggested we feed the fish immediately thereafter, so that probably made everything better.
