We spent the day visiting grandparents, letting the little one have fun at both houses.
And enjoy tasty treats, like ice cream and cupcakes.

 We spent the day on the east side of the state today. The first stop was the Oslund household.
 The weather was great. Uncle Jeff grilled and we could sit out and enjoy the cooler weather.
 Next up was Grandma Karath. We brought her some cupcakes to help her feel better.
Quinn had a great time with her. He had an elaborate game in which they were in a secret cave and there were all sorts of special scanners and gadgets. She had a great time with him and his imagination.

We spent Father's Day on the east side of the state with family. First off was visiting the Oslund side of the family, playing with toys and uncle Jeff.
 And of course hanging out with Grandparents!
 Next was stopping in to see Grandma Karath. She had tasty cupcakes!
And lots of tickle and cuddle sessions for her little grandson.

We spent the day in the Detroit area. We stopped at my parents house briefly and then spent time at Grandma Karath's assembling LEGO sets and eating desserts.
When we arrived home I headed out to see the Detective Pikachu movie. It was a lot more adorable than I thought it was going to be. Plus they were handing out trading card packs, so that's a cute bonus.

 We spent the day on the east side of the state, celebrating Easter with family.
 Quinn had an amazing time, and it was good to catch up with everyone.
We did walk away with 6 chocolate bunnies, a ton of peeps and a tote of jellybeans that didn't make it into the photo. We are so set on candy for awhile.

Today we're headed to the east side of the state to celebrate with grandparents! We have a Build-A-Bear birthday hat and we're ready to go!
 He had tons of fun running around Grandma Karath's place and playing with new toys.
 Fuzzy had a good time too.
 At Grandma and Grandpa Oslund's house he received more presents!
 Plus we had some more birthday cake!
Eventually we made it back home and snuggled with new Harry Potter plushies.

It's day one of our holiday weekend with friends and family! Amy and Chris are in from Beijing so we spent several hours with them, catching up on things and having a good time. My parents were kind enough to host and let us use their house.
They brought Quinn an A-M-A-Z-I-N-G set of transforming letters that you can connect into large robots, not unlike Voltron. Quinn loved them!
We had a fantastic time at Grandma Karath's for dinner and presents. Quinn ran around screaming and loving everything, talking up a storm with her.
This dinosaur visiting everyone was truly his favorite and he fed the rescue dinosaur plants, had him visit a manger, and just go all over the place.
There were so many things with lights, sounds, and wrapping. He had so much fun!

Thanksgiving is here! We traveled to Grandma Karath's house first, for presents and tasty lunch.
Then to Grandma and Grandpa Oslund's house, for dinner and fun times with Uncle Jeff.

I've been itching to come back to the Detroit zoo for a year. I love the new penguin exhibit!
 My parents joined us and we all enjoyed the brisk weather as compared to yesterday.
We walked so much more of the zoo than the last few times. It helps that it wasn't 90 degrees this time!
Once we were done at the zoo we spent several hours with Grandma Karath. They had fun playing and watching cartoons.

It has been a few weeks and my mom's birthday is Monday, so we decided to make a day of it with the grandparents. We stopped first at Grandma Karath's house.
 Where a tasty cupcake waited to be eaten.
Then we went over to my parent's house. Quinn enjoyed playing on Uncle Jeff's Switch.
And the grandparents enjoyed having the little ball of energy over.

It's time for the 2018 Detroit Maker Faire. It's in such a good location since there are so many other fun things for the little one to see.
 Like cars!
 There are always plenty of robots, doing all sorts of different things (like a dragon blowing bubbles!).
 And of course a fire breathing dragon, which has become a staple at this event.
 He had a lot of fun with the Magformers and these E-Blox.
After a few hours we stopped by for a little at my parents house. My mom brought up my brother's old cache of micromachines, which Quinn adored.
 And then we stopped at Grandma Karath's house, which features two new trucks!
Chris and I snuck away for some quiet time while Grandma and Quinn played with cars.

We haven't been to the Detroit area since before Easter, so now that everyone is feeling better we headed out for fun with Grandma Karath.
 There were lots of new toys to play with so everyone had lots of fun.
 And of course new toys at the the Oslund grandparent's household too.
 The weather was nice with just some sprinkles here and there.
Since Deadpool 2 opened this weekend, we left the little one with the grandparents and went out with Jeff to enjoy a Saturday afternoon matinee.
It was a fun-filled day and Quinn slept pretty good when we arrived home.
