July 2016

Quinn had a very exciting tooth fairy experience the last week of the month. On July 27th, she lost her first tooth. The tooth fairy sprinkled glitter all over her pillow and her gifties, a bracelet maker and a crisp $10 bill. 

Two days later her 2nd tooth came out! Tooth fairy brought $5 and a couple small items. Quinn's new grin is quite adorable.

A couple of firsts for Miss Quinn this month.

An international trip! Via cruise ship (also a first) out of LA, Quinn visited her first country outside of the US, Mexico. We visited Cabo San Lucas, Mazatlan and Puerta Vallarta. She met and played with kids in Old Town Mazatlan. She had the most wonderful experience swimming with dolphins in Puerta Vallarta. (Btw, she's a very brave girl. Always first to volunteer to go first. In this case, first to pet and kiss a dolphin in our group.)

She absolutely loved this vacation.

Quinn turned 5 this month! Officially a big girl, she told everyone she came across on her birthday that she was now 5. 

We also celebrated Christmas at home this year. Quinn enjoyed all the festivities, especially decorating our house and tree. She was also able to join in with the neighborhood fun, which included caroling and a friends secret Santa. That was a big highlight for her.

She had her 5 yr well check up as well.

She's 41 3/4 in tall and weights 41 lbs. She received her vaccinations and got a clean bill of health.

In November Quinn got her first skateboard. She's working on her balance (and confidence) and enjoys skating with her neighborhood friends. 

We also celebrated Thanksgiving with friends. We attended a big dinner and Quinn played all day long, to her delight. She helped make pie and is becoming a proficient chef.

Halloween

Quinn dressed up as a pirate this year. She was particular of being a captain and pulled off her role quite well. She even insisted on using her hook to carry her candy bag.  Another successful Halloween.

August 2015

No milestones or significant events this month. Just summer in motion for Quinn. This means a bunch of days spent at the neighborhood pool, the beach, Legoland and playing with her friends and brother. She's enjoying every bit.

July 2015

June was pretty routine, without much to report for Quinn. 

However, July included a few big events that were very exciting.

First, we started the month out with a big 4th of July luau. Our neighborhood association puts on a large event each year which includes jumpy houses, a petting zoo, circus acts, face painting, a water balloon fight with 1500+ balloons and the roasting of a 400lb pig. Quinn was thrilled with all the fun and fell asleep at the end of the day in about 3 mins flat!

Later in the month Quinn and I took a special trip to San Francisco together, just her and I. Airplane, rental car, hotel, room service, the whole experience. She is a very adventurous little girl and loved every minute. She's a travel pro.
