More mystery “Quinn Speak” coming soon!
Quinn is learning lots of new words, so we wanted to give you all a chance to hear him. This is one of his new words, but we aren’t going to say what it is. Guesses are welcome in comments and we’ll reveal the answer in a day or so.
We love the giggle [...]
Here is a note from Heidi!
Hello family and friends,

We’re going to miss nearly the entire hockey season in MN this year, so Gretchen will not get her normal quota of Pascal Dupuis sightings.
