Bowling

Our neighbor's son, Nicholas, is two weeks older than Q.  Nick had a bowling party for his bday party this year and his mom, Wendy, got all the kids bowling shirts.  Q was nervous at first, but with a little push from our neighbors he gave it a shot and LOVED it!  He bowled three complete games.  He would watch for his name on the monitor to know when it was his turn and would grab his ball all on his own.

School

Q's school is just down the street from my work.  So, for his birthday I brought his class cupcakes and got to spend his recess with him.  And last night was his first open house.  He is still very shy and still not thrilled about school, but he's doing well.

Springtime...

Q found this headband at Target the other day.....and he had to have it.  Happy Spring!!

Finding Neverland

One night a couple of weeks ago, my neighbor found the DVD Finding Neverland and let me borrow it because she knew it was one of my favorite movies.  I was excited to watch it, but didn't really think Q would want to sit through it.  I asked Q if he wanted to hang out on the couch and watch a movie with me.  He agreed and hopped up in to my lap.  He loved the movie and we had such a nice time watching it together.  A couple of nights later at the dinner table, I looked over and Q was hanging a spoon from his nose.........just like Johnny Depp did in the movie......kid cracks me up! 

More Self Portraits

I know I've already done a post about Q's self portraits.  I thought that was a phase he was done with, but the other day I was loading some photos from the camera on to the computer and came across some of his recent self portraits that I didn't know about.  They made me laugh, just had to do another self portrait post.....

Christmas Conversations with Q

This Christmas season is so much fun, Q is really getting into it.....asking tons of questions about Santa and Christmas traditions.  The other night before bed we were talking about Santa, Q was telling me what he wants to ask for.  Then he told me, "You know I'm scared of Santa, I'm not going to sit on his lap."  I explained Santa will just drop off the presents while he's asleep, he said "good, then I don't have to see him?".

Then, on our way home from picking out a tree, B told Q Santa puts the presents under the tree.  Q got really quiet (which is not like him), so I asked if he was ok.  He said, "So Santa is going to pick up the tree, put the presents down and put the tree on top of the presents?"  I had to explain the presents aren't literally under the tree, he said "good, I thought the presents would be squished."  Kid cracks me up!!

Conversations with Q

Q cracks me up, we have some really fun conversations, I need to remember to write some of them down. This Sunday all the kids were in big church and we sat next to Dan, Michelle and Lilly. Q told B, "Daddy, Michelle has a big tummy." B explained to Q Michelle has a baby in her tummy to which Q exclaimed "Oh!! You better tell Michelle!!"
