9 months!

I will post a picture of Quinn later; I just got to work after taking Quinn to her 9-month well-baby visit. Our pediatrician opens at 7:00 a.m., which is so nice. Randy's work hours are much more flexible than mine so he has been taking her for ear infections, etc. this school year; it's nice to be involved sometimes. :-)

Anyway, Quinn is up to almost 19 pounds and is 28 inches long. She is in the 50th percentile for weight, 65th for height, and 90th for head circumference. She can eat anything she wants to now, which she has pretty much been doing already. Dr. Beebe thinks that Quinn will be exceptional verbally and socially, and that she might focus more on those skills than on early walking, etc. Time will tell!

I sneaked out of the doctor's office before flu shot time....that gets to be Daddy's department today.

Happy Monday!

I am going to link the album here so that you can see them. (Hope it works, Mom and Dad!)

8 months!

I (Jill) have been swamped lately! I had several long nights of conferences and have just been crazy busy in general.

Our little pumpkin is 8 months! She is growing so much and changing each day. I am not much of a photographer but I snapped a few shots after tonight's bath. She was so smiley and happy!

What Quinn is up to these days: crawling, playing on tummy (she does not like to sit up and play with toys!), babbling and talking like crazy. She got her third tooth on the bottom but still doesn't have any on the top.

Foods: recently introduced poultry and egg yolks. Meat hasn't been her favorite so far but she loved eggs! Yum! Quinn is also now officially a bottle-fed baby. I was sad to lose that bond with her but it definitely makes my life a lot easier.

Happy Halloween!

 
The world's cutest giraffe!
Too tired....time to rest.


Quinn was home sick from school part of both Thursday and Friday, so we had a mini-Halloween at home last night. :-) She's not feeling the greatest, but we think she looks pretty cute anyway!
