Last Tuesday we 'moved into' Mac and Brigitte's house to take care of Omar (the golden lab) while they vacationed in Hawaii. Trust me, I asked many times for them to smuggle me along in their suitcases!! ;-) They boys have been loving living with the dog, while I have been dealing with having a constant companion everywhere I go in the house.
In the meantime life has been going on as usual. On Sunday we put up the Christmas lights at home, and Aidan was as happy as a pig in sh!it (to put it mildly!). The kid has an uncanny memory - he remembered exactly where each light strand was last year. Chris and I would be debating where things went and how we arranged all the plugs, and the little monkey would pipe up: "no Mummy, it went like this...." Unbelievable! Now all that being said, even though the lights are up we have not turned them on yet. The rule is that they don't go on until December 1st (which of course Aidan knows and repeats on numerous occasions to Quinn).
Quinn meanwhile, has become quite the little bugger. His latest 'trick' is to shriek at the top of his lungs to get our attention. I've lost track of the number of times a day we say: "Quinn, use your words!" That being said, he's such a little cutie that sometimes you can't help but laugh when you're 'disciplining' him.
That's it for now - have to go rescue Chris from Shannon. It's her fussy time, which means we take turns rocking, bouncing, dancing, lunging and just plain trying anything to get the little sweetie to stop fussing.
