Quinn // 5 years
Quinn, my growing girl! Shy, goofy, and level-headed. She is so smart and attentive to the needs of others. She takes the best care of her baby brother and instantly turns into a little doctor when any of us get sick. She has her sassy moments and struggles at times to share, but for the most part she is just so kind-hearted and fun. She has the best sense of humor and I love the friendship that has grown between us. My little girlfriend 🙂 Quinn’s favorite foods are pancakes, pizza, and peaches. She is obsessed with her bitty baby, Maya. Maya has her own crib and highchair, and she drinks milk and goes to sleep on Conrad’s schedule. She is going to be the sweetest little mama! She carries Maya everywhere she goes and I will be crushed when she doesn’t do this someday.
Conrad // 18 months
Conrad is so terribly cute and tests every ounce of my patience. Fortunately, his gap toothed smile is the sweetest and gets him out of all sorts of trouble. He has the silliest little personality, bounces off the walls from morning until night, and walking into his room in the morning and seeing his big, happy smile is one of my favorite things ever. He has been going through a clingy phase lately, so he literally wants to sit in my lap or is trying to climb up my leg every second of the day. He asks me to hold him by saying “up peeh, mama” and how could I resist?? Conrad is rolling into one of my favorite phases- the word boom! He is talking up a storm lately. Current favorite words and phrases are “naaa” for snack, “tay-to” for thank you, “walk walk”, and “hep peeh” for help please. He’s obsessed with singing and dancing, loves balls of every shape and size, and carries around his “pup pups” all day. He sleeps with about fourteen different lovies in his crib at night, and absolutely knows if one of them is missing. His favorite foods are chicken noodle soup, m&m’s, and raspberries (but only if they are placed on his fingertips for easy snacking).
