Lessons Quinn has learned.

A few days after Easter Quinn traveled for work to Chicago for four days. He had a great time and was able to get and see some sights. He says he will blog about it sometime. I was lucky enough to go out of town the weekend he got home. His mother was nice enough to come sit with the kids for two hours until Quinn got home (his flight was delayed). I headed to St. George with my Mom and my sister Anne for a scrapbook weekend and my sister Carly's house. We had a great time and got a lot of relaxing and eating done as well. Thanks for the fun weekend.

When I got home I found a stack of notes Quinn had made about what he had learned in addition to the notes I had left him. This was the first time that I had left him alone with two kids overnight. He did great but I don't think he is ready to do it any time soon. So here is what he learned:

The Boy = James The Girl = Emma
Bed/Crib = Good Garage = Bad
Shirts/Pants = Good Garbage Bags = Bad
Water/Milk = Good Mountain Dew = Bad
Feed Kids = Good Starve Kids = Bad
Play with Kids = Good Ignore Kids = Bad
Stuffed Animals = Good Blenders = Bad

Do Not Call 911 or Poison Control for bedtime tips
Neither kid needs a haircut in the next 3 days
Note: the girl can only lift about 15 pounds. The boy can hardly lift anything.

I'm sure glad they all survived.
Thanks for letting me go off and be myself again and not just someones mother.
I love you. You are a great husband and father.
Thanks!
