Yesterday (Aug 23) Michael had to go back to work. That left Quinn and I to fend for ourselves for 13 + hours. We did great, ran lots of errands… we are so lucky Quinn is flexible. I think it was much more rough on Michael. He missed her so much at work he had us meet him for lunch. Those two are buddies. I think he has the maternal instinct, much more so than me.

Quinn always tolerated Sam and Stella but she decided yesterday that they are really funny. She was obsessed with them yesterday and loved it when the dogs would but their wet noses on her or lick her.

On Saturday Michael had a bike race in park city. The pro Tour of Utah race was also on the same course, but later in the day. we left about 845am, watched Michael race, went to lunch with a friend, Lori McGinnis and her 3 yo son, then watched the criterium race and got home around 7pm. Quinn barely fussed. She was completely exhausted though.

I am a proud Mama! Michael and I are trying to integrate sign language for communication. Simple signs like Mom, Dad, Milk, more, eat, sleep, all done, and a few more. A few days ago Quinn started using the sign for milk. Pretty cool.

I haven’t downloaded the pics from Saturday yet but I will add them on in the next day or two
