Happy Mother's Day

We wanted to wish everyone a happy mother's day. We hope everyone enjoys their one day of the year when mothers are appreciated. I know that we do appreciate them much more than most will know, but it's difficult to always tell them. For Carrie Quentin gave her several art projects. She received a framed picture he created with his hand prints all over it, another one with his foot prints and a special one with a cute picture, heart and some nice words. It will make for a nice Quinny corner in her office. We wanted to save some of his art work and thought as we keep moving forward and the years pass by this would be something she could always have and look back on to remember our first little boy.

Which leads me to make an announcement. One of the reasons we wanted to make sure Quentin's art work was saved for the coming years is because we found out he's going to be a big brother. We are expecting our second child so I'm going to have to update the title of this blog. We have a couple of ultrasound pictures that I'll have to get posted shortly. We are due October 29th so they will be about 23 months apart. Quentin was two weeks early so we'll see when this one is set to arrive. Once again we have decided we are not going to find out the sex. I think it's going to be difficult to find quality Q names for this one. We already checked out our "final name's list" from when Quentin was born and don't like any of them. Wow, how times change. For the record Quentin wasn't on the final list so we never did choose a name off it to begin with. It's pretty exciting news.

I found out by coming home one day and finding the family out on the porch. I was upset about something and walked out there to tell Carrie about whatever my issue was and noticed Quentin had a shirt on that said "Big Bro." Because I was distracted it took me a minute to put it all together and then a moment of surprise. Surprise maybe but we are definitely looking forward to expanding our family. With Quentin I knew we were having a boy. I just had a feeling and with this one and I think it's going to be a girl, so place your bets! If it is we are only a white picket fence away from the nuclear family! I'll get some pictures posted soon...
