On Saturday Jen and Chad invited us over to watch the Cubs game at noon and a soccer match at 2 p.m. It was a gorgeous day and you’d think we wouldn’t want to spend time inside watching TV, but that’s why Jen and Chad have an outside living room! That way we can enjoy the weather and landscaping, let the dogs run around a bit, have a barbecue, let Quinn play in the sandbox or pool, and get in some rounds of beer pong, all while keeping an eye on the game score. FYI, I”m terrible at beer pong. I should have played ping pong more at Google. There was at least one time where I emptied my cup just on my own bad serves!

On Sunday I babysat for Quinn while Jen and Chad went to the Cubs game. He’s gotten so much bigger since the last time I babysat. .. he can totally get around the whole house now. He’s not walking but he can crawl fast. I made the mistake of giving him his bottle too early and then when he actually was tired he had a hard time going to bed with just a pacifier. Still, he is a great baby overall and I’m glad we get to see him so often.
