Happy Chrismahanukwanzakah!
Holiday seasons are always busy (even for the most organized among us), and we have certainly been no exception! We had a wonderful visit to Boston/ NH for Thanksgiving with the Regan/ Quinn clan. I think back to my first introductions to the Quinns and am amazed at how quickly Hayden picks up on everyone’s names. Granted, to him everyone is a cousin (yes, even you Nancy and Papa), but the kid is impressive! As usual, he jumped right in the fray playing with his blocks, ping-pong, or hide and seek with anyone who happened to be walking past. Maybe he doesn’t get enough attention at home??
Always the ham, Hayden also shared all of his new catchphrases… my favorite being “Are you kidding me?” On our last night in Boston, Hayden was riding Michael’s suitcase around the apartment like it was a toy. All of a sudden he noticed Michael trailing behind him, stopped in his tracks, and turned around and asked “Are you followin’ me?”
The big boy also turned 3 last Friday! All day, Hayden walked up to people holding up 5 fingers saying “I’m free”. We celebrated at the bowling alley, which has quickly become one of Hayden’s favorite things. Well, it’s either bowling or the video games…one can never be sure! I have officially finished my last round of classes and will begin student teaching (3rd grade, then kindergarten) in January 2009 at a public school around the corner from Hayden’s daycare. Meanwhile, Patrick is still working hard at the Legal Center & School. This weekend is the JAG Blues Reception (pictures to follow), so we will be out of cell phone range (aka in Charlottesville).
