5 Months

 

Sweet Quinn, oh how we love you! 

SAM_0689

I can’t believe you’re 5 months old. You have been such a joy! You are getting the cutest little personality and we love your smile and your new giggle:) You still love your bath so much and even don’t mind when I squeeze water over your head (just getting you ready for the pool this summer). We think you are so close to crawling! Right now you just roll everywhere and stop when you hit some big piece of furniture. You raise up and do your mini push ups and just turn yourself in a circle. You LOVE your jumper! Daddy and I find that’s the only way we can get things done! You’re our little lovie!

Starting to think cereal is pretty good!

First Cereal

A couple of weeks ago we got the go ahead to start cereal…not such a big fan! But it’s getting better and Quinn is eating it more and more. If there was a camera in our dining room we would probably win America’s Funniest Home Videos prize! By that time of night Quinn starts to get very tired and to make it through cereal some nights I’m singing, Shane’s making noises and acting stupid:) geez she knows how to work us!

Weight: 14 lbs 10 oz

Height: 25 in

Quinn, You are such a sweet, sweet baby! You have been a pretty good sleeper, usually only waking up once about 2:30. We feed you and then you go right back to sleep. You are still loving to go to Mrs. Lela’s! You still HATE riding in your car seat. Most times you just cry, cry and eventually (if we’re lucky) fall asleep. You have been rolling over from your belly to your back for a while but you now have started rolling from your back to your belly. You did it for the first time at Grana and DT’s house and your Daddy and I couldn’t believe we missed it! You got a jumper for Christmas and you LOVE it!! I’m afraid you might get bouncing baby syndrome! You love your baths still and kick and squeal every night! You got your first cold and we had to spray solution up your nose and suction it and you are defiantly not of fan! You love to smile, laugh, and squeal. We think your pretty funny!!

You are a little TV-aholic! I think you would watch it all day if you could. You love to sit and watch football with your Daddy!

Your first Super Bowl and Tay Tay’s and Ton Ton’s house

You went to your first birthday party. Your friend, Tyler, turned 2! You had lots of fun and it just wiped you out!

3 Months

Holy cow...well back on January 12 th Q turned 3 months! We can't believe how fast she's growing. Here are some highlights:
*Sleeping really good-most nights you wake up around 2 or 3 but after you eat you go right back to sleep
*You've started sleeping in your crib instead of in your rock and play. You've done really well! Daddy and I can't believe what a good girl you are!
*You got a visit from your Grandma Darla
*You had your first Christmas and your first snow all in one day
*Your first day of daycare:( I loved staying home with you sweet girl but had to go back to work after 3 (mostly) wonderful months with you at home. I felt so blessed to have that time with you and CRIED when I had to leave you, but we LOVE Mrs Lela who keeps you and you love her too!



You were wiped out after your first day of visiting Mrs. Lela!


Such a happy girl! Your first Christmas Eve at Grana and DT's house


Tyler came to visit and brought her mom, dad, and Honey. We had fun getting to meet them. Tyler loved to hold you and know you will love and look up to Tyler the same way we did to her Mommy, Kyla! We thought she was the coolest person on the planet (still is:) and we love her so much!


Taking a snooze with Sampson. He always tries to lay beside you but you usually kick him (poor guy) and he moves over. You were finally still and he cuddled up to you!


Such a big girl in your bumbo!

2 Months Old

Today is Quinn’s 2 month birthday…and Tay Tay’s birthday too!  Quinn’s was pretty good until she got shots at her doctors appointment. The pout lip was in full force! It was very sad but she was a trooper and didn’t cry for long.

2 month stats:

  • Weight: 12lbs
  • Height: 23 in
  • Head circumference: 15.5 in
  • Another A+…minus a little head flattening:) She loves to stare to the right but we are working on it!
SAM_0544

Sweet Quinn: We love you so much! This past month you have brought so many smiles to mine and your Daddy’s faces! You have the sweetest smiles and you are starting to giggle a little. You really like to talk and squeal! You love to lay on your play mat and kick your legs and use your go-go gadget arms:)

SAM_0499

Your favorite thing to do is still stretch! When we get you up in the morning we have to wait to change your diaper while you get nice and stretched out! We are very appreciative because you have started to sleep “through the night” (most of the time). You go to bed around 9pm and wake up at 5am but you usually go back to sleep for a little while. You still love your swing but your not sleeping in it as much as you used to. You love to be held and your favorite place to sleep is on your Momma and Daddy’s chest.

SAM_0485 Quinn (66)

You don’t dig tummy time but you are so strong and are going for about 5 min. before you start to get dramatic.

SAM_0517

Over the last month you went to your first wedding, Eli and Courtney’s. You made it through the seating of the mothers before you started screaming:( I had to run out and in my panic I forgot the diaper bag but DT rescued us! This month we also saw your first real smiles, you went to your first restaurant (and were very good), you had your first road trip but your not the biggest fan of your car seat!

Your first Thanksgiving!  SAM_0508

My favorite outfit this month! You wore it when we celebrated Tay Tay’s birthday. Love the snakeskin pants…a girl after my own heart!

Sweet Smiles

Quinn has started to smile real smiles lately-instead of just when she passes gas:) Shane and I just can't get enough!!
