A Birthday that lasts 2 weeks!

Quinton had a great birthday weekend.. in fact, he has truly had about 2 weeks to celebrate.

I'll start with the St. Louis Trip: First we all went miniature golfing up the street from CC and DD's house, then we watched the MU Tigers beat the IL (Q and his dad were pretty excited, that was a gift in and of itself). The next dad we woke up and had a small party at Great Nana and Papa's Lake House, Uncle Brad was there so Qman was pumped..... He jumped off the dock all by himself and swam like a fish, of course, still drinking a little lake water. He also drove the boat and thought he was the coolest kid on the water. Overall, he had a blast and got tons of AWESOME presents.....A Portable Hoop and the CLAW Machine were a couple his favorites (Ok, because they're just like Chucky Cheese).

Now let's talk about the Peoria gatherings: He had his official birthday party on Sept 6 with all of his little friends and cousins at Rainbow Playset. He had a blast and you could tell just by the sweat that dripped from his hair. It was a sports theme, since he truly is obsessed with any sports and/or balls that he can kick, shoot or putt. We all ate a little fruit and cupcakes and then cleaned up (it was great not having it at the house). He got so many presents that we couldn't even fit them in the car. Everyone was so sweet and boy does everyone know what he likes... he got a pitching machine, some fun race car ramps, tons of books and board games, 2 remote control cars and so on.....! Can I say spoiled...? He then was was able to celebrate at Ms. Angie's Gymnastics with treats and all of his new friends at school sang him happy birthday and he was abke to bring in BATMAN fruit snacks................. boy is he growing up (too fast!)
