On Thanksgiving Monday we decided to go to Rideau Hall to check out the leaves. This is our favourite park in the city - Steve and I used to go walking there when we started dating, we had our engagement photos taken there, and we also took Q there last fall. It's amazing in the fall as the ground is just covered in multicoloured leaves...and what better fall activity is there then scuffing in the leaves?
I also made my first Kijiji purchase of a new jogging stroller, so we decided to take that out for a test spin in the leaves. What a difference! I was only imagining what our other stroller would have been like going off-road. Quinn also seemed to really like the stroller. I can't believe I bought one to be honest since I'm not a big runner...but Q and I have been doing more jogging at Strollercise now and really enjoying it.
Quinn really liked the leaves! We held her hands as she walked through them and tried to "baby scuff". Her favourite thing to do was to gather them up and get her hands all dirty though. She was sitting underneath a big tree and was stopping traffic with her cuteness! Even some tourists were stopping to take her picture. What a cutie! Here are a barrage of photos from that beautiful day:

Quinn now has 6 teeth and has progressed from crawling on her hands and knees to crawling on her hands and feet. She started that yesterday afternoon...it's like a backwards crab crawl. It looks quite funny - we're wondering if maybe it's how she is trying to progress to walking and standing. Time will tell!
