Yay... The little ducklings are saved!

I tried to do an anonymous tip but they quoted me anyway in the story, ah well as long as all is well.

The Story

What they don't show in the story is the reunion because management had kicked them off the property... they were not happy about the news being there, but the reunion was adorable! One of the ducklings is not going to make it. It was very sickly :( management took it, all though I am not sure why? They should have tried to give the mom a shot to nurture it.

Boom Boom Pow

Quinn's new favorite song.



At one point it says "let the beat rock" Quinn belts out "Let the Seesaw"

Sarcasm at four?

I bought Quinn a float vest that attaches between the legs so it stays on while he swims... I wanted to try it on him to make sure it fit, the directions say to adjust it so it's snug in the crotch area so it doesn't float over his head when he gets in the water. After I remove the vest and let him run off to play, being the polite child that he is, he flutters out of the room calling behind him "thanks for the wedgie mommy"

I fell to the floor laughing so hard he had to run back in to see if I was OK. He seemed so sincere with out a hint of humor, but it had to be sarcastic.

I love this commercial!

And the culprit is...

A wash cloth!

I've had the plumber here snaking my toilet for about 45 minutes now. Yesterday Quinn proudly says "I flushed it mommy". I tried so hard to get him to tell me what he flushed... but all I got was "it's green".

Oy... what's next a Peanut Butter and Jelly sandwich in the DVD player?

The Ladies Man

Quinn will not let me kiss him in public anymore with out looking to see who saw and yelling "Ewwwwwwww" while cleaning his tainted cheek. Yet the other night he asks me all sweetly... "mommy, when will Ava kiss me?"

Ava is a beautiful little girl he plays with at daycare. The teachers tell me these two are quite the pair, snuggling up on the big bean bag chair to talk... hugging all the time. (Ava and Quinn seen below sharing a video game)



Now here's the kicker... Ava got moved up to the next level class. Poor, Poor Quinnie all alone... HA .... along comes Mattie, the "new girl" at daycare. All I hear is Mattie this and Mattie that. The teachers say these two are inseparable... So I ask my little ladies man "what about Ava" his reply "I have two girlfriends mommy".

Ok then.

So... last story I promise! This was told to me by his teacher... Mattie (GF2) is hugging Quinn... Quinn yells "Kendra help" (Kendra? is this GF3?) So Kendra comes running over and starts pulling on Quinn's arm to free him from GF2. GF2 and GF3 literally pulling him in separate directions.

The punch line....

Quinn says " Don't worry Kendra, you'll get your chance."

Quinn will have to explain himself to GF1 in due time... June first he moves up to Ava's class... and she's a tuff cookie. I don't think she'll be listening to his Jive talk.

You Tube

To my family and friends over yonder... I'm setting up a You tube channel of random videos of Quinn growing up, because we don't get to see you as often as we should! And I need to start organizing all the photos/videos I take, It's getting out of control...

So if you want to take a look the URL is http://www.youtube.com/sassafrascal

Mom, Chrissy, Tony... I thought I could give you the log in so we can all use the channel for videos we take? Keep it all together ya know? I'll be adding a whole lot more soon. Damn he has grown fast!

Here is the first playlist.

Quinn is Psychic I SWEAR!

A few post down is his cop moment... Which was really weird!

Here are two more.

1) Quinn and I are hanging out just playing, out of the blue he says:

"wait a minute, WAIT A MINUTE...." he pauses ..."daddy can't find his friends house... he's so silly"

I called Tony and sure enough a minute ago he was unsure which way to go to get to his friends house... but quickly got his barrings... (Quinn did know already that he was going to his friends, but not that he was momentarily lost)

2) This afternoon I ordered Pizza... We were watching cartoons on the couch. Suddenly he says:

"Mommy the pizza is here... I hear the knock knock"

I said "no honey it's not here yet"... the words weren't out of my mouth yet when there was a loud knocking at the door.

hmmm... wonder if he can pick out lottery numbers?

A quick quote from Quinn. (say that three times fast)

"Mommy, there are two kinds of kids, Girls and Spidermans"

Mommy's in jail?

Ok Quinn is starting to scare me...

Before I picked him up today I ran to the bank. Sitting outside was a police officer. I parked and went in, when I came out and proceeded to leave the parking lot the officer rolled down the window and waved me over. I rolled down my window and he informed me that my registration was out of date and to have it renewed ASAP.

So I went directly to the daycare to get Quinn. While pulling out of the daycare Quinn says "Mommy did the cop put you in Jail?"

After a moment of shock ... I said no he just warned me to get my registration fixed... He pondered that for a moment and said "The cop is going to give me applesauce"... huh?

He knows about the subject of cops and jail because one day a few weeks ago he asked if he could drive... I said "if I let you drive the cops will put me in jail", which may explain his comment, but at that exact moment three or so weeks later ... is pretty odd.

can I just say

I really do enjoy working from home...

Aside from having no insurance... and no steady pay check.. and a crappy chair that is :)

So Cute

I got a nice distraction from the current chaos today... rare pictures of Quinnie POSING! How on earth do did they get him to do that? And look like he's enjoying it! They're magicians, they've got to be. Most of my current pictures of him are just motion blurr. And how did they get him to keep his hands posed like that!

All though he does look like he's about to bust out into a run any second.


Quinnie is what the other kids have nic-named him at school... he likes it and it seems I have adopted it as well... I still can't get him to say he's Gabriel :)

Making progress on the resume... still seems wierd.

Shit

I've been layed-off...
