There have been a lot of crazy things going on in the Quinn household! Our first crazy experience, burning down the shed. What I thought would be a nice, smaller sized bonfire, turned into a crazy, flaming, near disaster. I was downstairs when the boys started the fire. I could hardly believe my eyes when I came up to see this......
Believe it or not, the fire did actually slow down fairly quickly. By 9 pm the fire was down to just embers and Dave and I were downstairs watching a little TV before bed. About 10ish, Dave went up to check on the fire. A few seconds later, he comes sprinting down the stairs frantically yelling "The barn is on fire!" Yeah. Better believe it. Our barn started on fire. Dave was there just in time to put it out with a bucket of water. Thank God for our Guradian Angels! A few minutes later and we would have been putting in a call to the fire department. All I can say is good thing it wasn't the house!
A lot has been going on with Miss Eliza. She is changing soo much every day. She is really starting to pick up on the things we do. She was very curious about my DustBuster, so I showed her how to use it. It just took one demo and she was a pro. She was soo cute I could have died. Gotta start training em' young!
Last weekend, we had our friends the Ronhovde's over. Their oldest, our beautiful God daugter Gabby, is a little over a year and a half. And they have a new little guy, Lane who is about 5 months. Eliza had a lot of fun playing with Gabby. Their favorite thing to do was for Eliza to push her around in the car. They both laughed and laughed. It was pretty fun to watch, plus it kept them entertained for quite awhile:)
He is just too cute!
And finally the most exciting thing of all.....Guess who's finally walking?!?! She took her first "official" steps a few nights ago. It's soo fun to watch her grow and change. She is such a joyful little baby. She brings me the most incredible peace and happiness. It still amazes me that I am Finally a Mother. How am I soo blessed with such a gift? Sometimes, my face hurts from smiling soo much when I watch her. It doesn't feel right that she's old enough to be walking. Wasn't it just yesterday I was holding a little 5 1/2 pound baby in my arms? And now I'm chasing her around the room. Time goes by too quickly. I am trying to soak in every moment because before I know it, she will be a teenager and then the "real fun" will begin.
