Just checking in

     I have to admin December was busier than i expected!  The past few weeks have been so busy at work.  The past weekend Quinn and I had one heck of a weekend.  Friday we had some dinner with Hughey and saw our friend Meg.  After we headed home to watch some TV and then off to bed.

     Saturday we went to church and had our practice!  She did so well for doing two sets.  After the kids got to have a big pizza party and all hang out.  She was so cute, Quinn sat on the floor next to the other children and talked and ate.  Just watching her grow up is so amazing.  Later that day we took our nap and I brought her to my parents.  It was their night to take her to dinner.  Every year my parents take Quinn to dinner and just enjoy her.  My brother and I still go to dinner with my Aunt to this day.  Since we were kids we have gone to dinner and then would spend the night and run around and drive my Aunt and Grandma crazy, but they loved it!

     Quinn had such a good time, she loved going out with my rents.  The morning however it all started.  Quinn woke me up by pretty much throwing up on me.  My poor munch!  I got the bed stripped and gave her a bath and got her back in her bed.  I stayed up all morning getting laundry done and just checking her.  I though she just ate something but I gave her some water and toast that morning and she napped in my fresh made bed.  A little while later the toast came back up...  My poor little munch, and bed!  So off the sheets go again!  Back in the tub and we stated all over again.  I had to call my parents and let them know to tell Vicki and the church staff that I wouldn't be there.

     Quinn just relaxed that day and hung out on the couch while I cleaned up and did laundry.  I ended up bringing her home early because she wanted to see her Mom.  I understand because when kids get sick they want to be by their Mom.  I know Dad's are great but there is just something about a mothers love.  The rest of the week was good, I picked up Quinn Wednesday and she was great she feels better and we had a nice night in.  She's in bed sleeping now and as I review the next few weeks I do feel so blessed.  I also know how hard it is now to be a single parent.  I have had Quinn while she was sick before but it was difficult trying to get the rooms cleaned and Quinn down.  Even though the divorce was for the best, it doesn't make it easy being alone...

     I have some great post coming and I can't wait to get the new year post ready.  I think it's time for a new year...

     I will catch up with you all soon!

Love,
Christoher
