Best Part of the Day - Boat ride with Chris, Ann, Erik and all the boys. So, so enjoyable and fun. Wes at first was shaking his finger at Uncle Chris saying "Too fast. Too Loud. No thank you." Then toward the end of the trip when we were going slow he said "Too slow. Fast, fast." Quinn just sat happily. Then they all stayed for dinner and it was good n' fun.

Worst Part of the Day - Quinn's listening issue has reached the mind numbing stage. We told him (all of us - me, Chris, Ann, Erik) to not undo his seatbelt in the car (he was in Jack's booster seat and could therefore undo the seatbelt.) He did it once and I gave him a pass. But when he did it the second time .... when we all got back to our house, the rest of the boys got to run and play and Quinn had to go to his room. He was in there (screaming hysterically) for about 25 minutes. I went to get him and tried to tell him about the listening thing .... did it sink in? Who knows. He was a whiny little thang for the rest of the evening and finally I put him and Wes to bed while Erik and Chris went to pick up the adult's food. (Jack and Carson happily played.) He crashed in two minutes. I felt like crashing too (so much drama!) but there was red curry and red wine to be inhaled.
