My son

The other day Quinn was being brilliant. Wait a second, that's every day!

Anecdote #1- We moved the DVD player into Quinn's room in an attempt to shift movie time away from our night time routine. Since school began, we've been doing a good job of having the tv off by 8 and reading with Quinn before bed every night. I'd say that nearly every night he falls asleep by the end of his Thomas the Train book. He requests it and it is part of what he knows and expects. Every other night he has a bath and he squeels with glee when we use the sprayer, a new feature of this side of the duplex. The other night I took a bath with Quinn and when Dad/Luke would spray us it was so joyful and happy to laugh and giggle about the wonder of water. To continue in that area of the house, Quinn is such a mindful little man and very observant. Once, when he climbed up his step stool to stand in front of the mirror, he was able to locate Luke's electric shaver. Before I knew it, he was rubbing it against his face, shaving like Dad. This morning even, as Luke was readying for the day, Quinn wanted to stand right next to him and watch as he shaved. He pointed out to Luke that he was shaving his "lip, cheeks, neck". I love his vocabulary and smarts.
