Quinn-9 Months

01/19/2013-Quinn Renee is 9 Months Old!!

Weight: 15lbs 11oz (5th Percentile) My little peanut

Height: 27.5inches

Sleep Patterns: OH BOY! You are NOT mommy and daddy's consistent night sleeper. Some nights you are up every 2-3 hours and you may eat up to 2 times a night! We had a RECORD night two nights ago when you slept 10 straight hours!!!! I had to check to make sure you were breathing!! We are hoping that your sleep is on the upswing!

Eating: Oh my little angel! We are finally getting you to eat 3 full meals! You eat pretty much the same thing morning, noon and night: Brown Rice Cereal mixed with a Veggie/Fruit puree. We are slowly introducing "baby finger foods" and encouraging you to feed yourself. You have no interest in this milestone but we are hoping with lots of opportunities you will get this. As your mother I am already looking out for you and am seeking the help of doctors and speech therapists!

Gross Motor: You have got crawling down to a science. You are fast and get to where you want to go with NO problem! You are afraid to pull yourself up but if we stand you against furniture or your music table you are strong and enjoy standing!

I cannot believe you are 9 months already! Time is flying by and you are my little angel. I tell you every day you are so lucky you are cute!! I am also very grateful that I am able to stay home with you and Landon this year!! My favorite part of the day is when you see me come into your room to get you in the morning and your face lights up with a huge smile when you see me! You have no idea but that makes my heart melt!

As much as I worry about you I know that no matter what challenges you throw at your father and I we are ready to help you and teach you all the tools you need to survive in this crazy world!
