Our sweet baby turned 3 July 7. We celebrated at Laird Park. We had an epic water balloon fight. Quinn loves trucks. The day after his birthday he was so very brave and gave up his binkys. He hasn't had one since. I can't believe how much this has improved his speech and mood.
He is off to preschool this fall at CCNS. He will join his cousin Ronan. These two are going to make lots of trouble.
We love you Quinn and think you are so fantastic. You completed our family.
Seth, Shannon, Piper and Quinn Dunlop

Quinn potty trained himself
Our baby boy pretty much potty trained himself. It all started April 22, 2014. He's not even 3. It was so simple. Skittles and no pants. I swear by it. I had always heard boys were so hard and took so long. Not our amazing little guy. What happened to my babies. No more diapers. I love the baby stage. I miss it terribly already.
Way to go little guy. We are so proud of you my love!

Piper turns 5. What the ....?!?!
What's the one thing every woman says to you when you are expecting or when they see you wrestling your babies?? "It goes so fast" Not sure I've ever heard a more accurate statement.
Piper turned 5 October 7 and we celebrated her birthday at the Grand America Hotel with high tea the following Saturday.
This may have been the most amazing birthday party ever. We didn't have to do a darn thing. We put on fancy clothes and listed to a live harpist while we ate mini sandwiches with hot cocoa and tea. All of the little girls in Piper's class plus her besties Iris and Eli shared a beautiful little table with real linens, a blazing fire and gorgeous china. They were angels.
Happy Birthday to my beautiful little girl. You are the best gift in the world.

She takes my breath away. Thanks for the dress grandma Nettie. It was a show stopper as usual xoxo |
They just couldn't help it. They were so good but you can only hold still for so long when you're 5! |

Maui 2013
Maui is the reason we don't have cable. It's the reason we squander away money throughout the year. The place is so incredible. It's warm, clean, tranquil, full of life and smiles. More than anything I want my children and our family to travel.
We got to go this fall to Maui for a week and it was everything it always is, perfection.
This was Quinn's first time going. Piper's second time.

Banana bread shack on top of the island. Bit of a hairy road getting there, but oh so worth it |
