Christian learned to crawl down the steps last Monday! He has been going up for quite awhile, and we have been showing him how to go down on his tummy, but he finally braved it and can handle them all by himself now. Also, quite a few times this week we have seen him standing unsupported. When HE notices that he's standing up by himself, he quickly grabs on to whatever he is standing by or sits down, but we still think he's a big boy!

On Tuesday, Grandma & Grandpa Braegger took Faith and her cousin, Zach, out to breakfast and to the mall for a fun outing before school starts. Zach started the 22nd and Faith's first day is the 29th! I can't believe she is so big already :(
Faith's obsession is 'High School Musical 2" and we have been watching it at least once a day since it came out Friday before last. At this point I know not only the words to the songs, but the dance mooves as well! (her favorite guy in the film is the one with the afro on the left)***
On Thursday my friend Ann came over for a play date with her kids Brody, Ella, Lilly & Kynan. We had a blast!***
On Friday evening, we went to a baby shower for my dad's half sister, Holly. She had her baby boy, Owen, a couple of months ago but was on bed rest before he was born and then we waited for my aunt Sandra to get back from China to have the shower. It was a lot of fun chatting with Holly, her mom, Sue, her sister, Jill and my cousins Hillary, Lynette, Sandy & Sarah who I don't get to see very often.
Saturday morning Faith made blueberry muffins for breakfast. Tony even got a quick bite before he went out to work all day on the sprinklers. I feel so bad for that guy, he's working himself to death! At least the end is in sight.
On Sunday at mom & dad's we celebrated my brother, Eric's and my Grandpa Quinn's birthdays which both are on Aug. 27th, the same day as Tony's sister Tina's!!!
Eric will be 28 this year (and a very eligible bachelor with a great job and nice house), Grandpa's 82 (he says that at this point in his life he doesn't buy green bananas :D) and Tina will be 41 (I know she'll LOVE seeing her age announced).

Have a great week everyone! We will be busy with school, a birthday, and hopefully some sod.

It looks like everyone was having fun.
I had to show Bret your blog and we both would like to see more quotes from Grandpa - we love the green banana line! Also, Bret knows now who our fellow pharmacist is!
