Outside of 575 Jefferson is a small "hill" that leads from the small lawn area in front of the house to the driveway that is sunken a bit to the right of the house. Quinn uses this space as his slide and sits down and pushes his butt along the ground to the bottom of the small decline. Hilarious.

Quinn loves the notion of sword fighting or rather, light saber battles. Gracious. My poor finger got hit twice yesterday with his antics. We went on a short, but complicated walk yesterday. When I say short, I mean the distance covered away from the house. We did lots of back and forth directionally:) Someone on the lawn area next to the street had some landscaping around a tree and we went round and round it on the stones that squared off the tree. He likes to hop now, both forward on a small space and down. We've got him new Converse now, Size 9, with the low sides so we have fewer shoelace holes to maneuver. Quinn has a lovely new haircut and knows that Dad and Matt are both wearing tuxes for the wedding this weekend and that Quinn will wear one too. Quinn would like Mommy to wear one as well, but I told him I'm wearing a dress:) My son is nearly three. Yesterday when I was mentioning to Matt that my birthday was on Tuesday, Quinn said, "No, my birthday" so at least he's making connections. I'm going to enjoy this weekend and I'm looking forward to new family photos:)
