I noticed that it has been quite some time from the last post. I shall do my best to bring you all up to speed.
Quincy is 15 weeks old today (no, the picture isn’t up yet) and is doing great. More and more of his personality is emerging, and we like what we see! All in all, he is a very easygoing, good natured fella. He does like his meals, though, so one can’t be too tardy with the milk.
We spent several days in Maryland over the Thanksgiving holiday. Quincy (and us) got to see his two cousins and their parents as well as his grandparents*. We weren’t sure how he would handle the trip, but he did very well and does not seem to have forgotten how to eat from the bottle.
My mom, Dara, and myself took him up to the Gettysburg Village to do some Christmas shopping the Saturday after Thanksgiving. I lobbied very hard to take him to the battlefield. I really wanted to get a picture of him sitting atop a cannon and one by the statue of Winfield Hancock (sorry Bill, no Sickles), but that idea was voted down by the female members of the shopping party.
We didn’t take a lot of pictures over the visit, but we did manage to get a few. I created a new page for them under the Photos section. For those of you who are impatient – click here – to warp over to those pictures. Otherwise, you can just access them from the Photos sections.
We’re back in the normal routine now, but that will be short lived, since Christmas is right around the corner. Yikes. We won’t be doing any traveling for that, but we will have people coming to our house. We plan on cutting down the tree in our front yard to use this year as our Christmas tree. I’ll be sure to send that picture along – it is something on next weekend’s agenda.
That about wraps it up from NY for the time being. We hope you all had a nice holiday and thanks for visiting the Playpen.
