Our house is still echoing - because it's still basically empty, really. I mean, we have all of our stuff. But our stuff filled up a 650 square foot apartment, not a house. And did I mention that we only moved 8 pieces of furniture? Quinn's crib, dresser & bookshelf. A sofa & a loveseat + an ottoman. And an entertainment center. Wait. That's only seven. See! No wonder our house echos. It's kind of driving me crazy, but it turns out that ordering furniture takes forever. Forever, & ever, & ever. We'll be settled by Christmas, I'm sure.
We're happier today. I mean, more or less. Church was less depressing yesterday, which meant that we aren't converting to Southern Baptists after all. Since Q has suddenly turned into a sass-delivering pre-teen, church is very much less about spiritual nourishment & more about any social interaction that is available (in the hallway, more often than not). Luckily, he provides some nice social lubricant everywhere I go, which is lovely since I'd probably be driven to drink otherwise. I almost asked a reasonably nice + normal looking girl in line at Chick-fil-A last weekend if she'd be my friend, then I got scared & didn't. Oh well. In the meantime, I've signed us up for a music + signing class, am doing my best to have a happy + friendly face! on all the time, & am headed to the gym this week to sign up for a membership (with two hours of babysitting included per day!).
Week #2, here we go.

Quinn already has a friend in Avery. Every time you post a video I play it for Avery & he sits there smiling talking to Quinn. Hopefully we will be able to get the boys together at some point.
gym membership?! you were giving me a hard time about going running, and you are getting a gym membership? not cool, k.
That video is so cute! At the end when he looked up, opened his mouth and let out a sound, it looks like he KNEW it would echo! Not only is he so, so, so cute...but he's so smart too! Love the bow-tie!
if you're going to creekside, go to my girls' classes, karen and cindy. and if you go to branch crossing, you must do the 8:30am bodycombat with andrea. and then when i come up there, we'll go together.
Living the dream can't be that scary!
he claps! smart boy.
i have been wanting to join a gym just to give fox/indie/me something to do during the week. i don't really care if i burn calories. i could just bring my laptop and surf the web for a few hours and i'd call it a success.
Woah, awesome hair alert Quinn. LOVE that hair.
Excuse me, is that a faux hawk on your sweet boy? I. Love. It.
Glad to hear you had a happier day. Ups and downs!
