Quinn's 1st Christmas

This was Quinn's very first Christmas...even though he is 5 1/2 years old. He loved having a tree in our house...even though he thought it was funny at first!

He loved meeting Santa Claus. He said he had never met him before. It was quite a night. We went to this place in Irvine called Irvine Regional Park. We took the train and met Santa...along with about 900 other families!! (I am not kidding!)

We had a quiet Christmas day. We didn't want it to be overwhelming for Quinn. He did really good. At first it was a frenzy of Christmas paper going everywhere and then we decided to have the boys take turns opening their presents....much better idea! Ha ha ha

We are now getting ready for Quinn's 6th birthday...January 17th!! We are staying at the Disneyland Hotel and going to Disneyland the next day! He is going to love it! This will also be Quinn's very first "acknowledged" birthday!! So we want it to be very special.

We have had Quinn home a little over 6 months. We were a little concerned with his height at first. He looked like a 3 year old when I first brought him home. He has grown 3 inches and put on 4 1/2 pounds!! He still is short for his age group, but we think he is going to catch up just fine. He is also finally liking our food here! So hopefully he will gain more weight too. Parker weighs 46 pounds to Quinn's 36 pounds!!
