Yia-Yia
Quinn and I also chatted about his birthday but our discussion was around presents. I'm trying to get some additional ideas of what he would like (well besides legos). He surprised me with a long dialog about Yia-Yia.
"Tell Yia-Yia not to buy me anything. I get worried about her. I think she needs to be saving her money. Plus I don't want her getting tired or her legs to start hurting from having to walk around the store to buy my present. Can you believe how much doctors charge? They don't even give coupons... do they? Maybe we should check on that. I wish doctors and medicine could just be free and they could make her all better. I can't believe this had to happen to her..."
Well those were the highlights I remembered. It was actually a pretty lengthy dialog. What an awesome kid :-)

Emily's RSVP
The talk around here is birthdays, birthdays, birthdays! Allison and I were talking about her party before bed.
Me: "Who do you want to come to your party"
Allison: "Emily!!!"
Me: "I'm sorry baby, Emily can't come."
Allison: "Too far."
Me: "Yes, it's to far."
Allison: "Airplane mommy!"
Me: "That's a good idea but I don't think she can this time."
Allison: "Car?"
Me: "It's too far for her to drive."
Allison: "Ohh" (with a dramatically sad look on her face.)

food vices
Quinn and I are watching Biggest Loser and they have a temptation where they are put in a room with their favorite foods. So I ask Quinn... what would be your foods?
Quinn: "Mushrooms"
Me: "That wouldn't count, it's healthy"
Quinn: "Peppers"
Me: "Still healthy"
Quinn: "Ok then, Green beans"
We finally hone in on his vices... Reese's Peanut Butter cups (or Reese's Pieces), Chocolate covered donuts, Pop, and cereal (if you want to be picky). All in all I really can't complain, he's a pretty healthy eater :-)

No Hayden?
Quinn is negotiating to stay up a little late tonight (Friday). However, he and Jason are joining Allison and I at Gymboree tomorrow morning at 9am. So I ask, what's going to happen tomorrow morning?
Quinn: "I'm going to get up with no fussing."
Me: "What if that doesn't happen?"
Quinn: "You can spank me as hard as you can."
Me: "How about no legos all day."
Quinn: "hmmm, ok"
Me: "No Hayden."
Quinn: "WHAT?!? No Hayden? Never?!? NO DEAL"
Me: "No, just tomorrow."
Quinn: "No way. I wish it could just be legos. No deal."
