Quinton is such an easy kid. He is helpful and is excited about so many things in life. He has a tender heart and a soft spot for his little sisters.

This year with things being they way they are we kept things simple. (I've promised myself I will make it up to him with a fabulous party next year or maybe just for fun once we've moved) We were lucky enough to have Grandma and Grandpa here for Thanksgiving and since his birthday was only a week away he got to open their gift while they were here. He chose a North Pole Express train and LOVES it! ! ! ! It's a remote control train with a working head light and it plays Christmas music. I can hear it downstairs early each morning, thank you Grandma and Grandpa.
His birthday fell on a Sunday this year so we did our traditional family get together for cake and ice cream. I'm so lucky to live near my sisters and their families, we love having them over. This year he had chosen a pirate ship cake and when I was showing him how it would look he asked to see some other cakes and one of the cakes he saw was a shark. So he told me next year he'll have the pirate ship and this year he wanted the shark. Ok, can do.
He got a great remote control truck from his aunts, uncles, and cousins. He hasn't let anyone play with yet, it's still "new" he says.
