And away we go...


Well, it's officially autumn now. The days are getting shorter, the sun is shining lower in the sky (but still shining!) and we've had to get the sweaters down from the attic. In the fall there's always such an exciting buzz in the air... everyone's off to school, back to work and on to new projects. This year it all felt a bit strange and overwhelming launching head-on into a thousand new things without having had a proper summer rest. I have jumped into rehearsals and preparations for my company's new piece, Jos has been on tour with his wildly successful one man show, The Art of Laughter, and Quinn of course has been up to all sorts of shenanigans. When Q's nanny got sick during my first week of rehearsals I almost had a mental break-down, but luckily my amazing parents came to the rescue and took care of the little one all week. Thank goodness for grandparents!!
Mr. Q's autumn has been full of excitement. He has his first tooth, more and more hair and he's crawling like nobody's business. Quinn's favorite thing though is his new-found ability of standing up. He reaches out for anything and everything he can get his hands on in order to pull himself upright... chairs, tablecloths, house plants, the oven, me...
Here are a couple videos of Quinn's exploits as well as some new photos of Mr. Adorable...
