EIGHT MONTHS!

I CANNOT believe we are under 4 months until sweet Quinny turns ONE! These past 8 months have flown by and I wouldn't change a single thing (well, maybe except the never sleeping part) :) Sweet Quinny, this month:

• Your bottom two teeth have come in at practically the same time - the left one came in about 1-2 days before the right one.
• You were NOT a happy teether. In fact, you were pretty much miserable the entire time. Poor girl!!
• You love to sit up and play with your toys - you are a lot better about independent play time!

• You love to stand if we're holding you. Sweet girl, you have strong legs!!
• You will still only say Papa....little girl, you need to learn Mama! :)
• You like to use those sweet little teeth sometimes when you're nursing...not very fun! ;)

• You will laugh and laugh if we tickle your ribs. It melts this Momma's heart!
• You will pretty much only eat sweet potatoes, corn, pears, pineapple, and bananas. If it's anything else you like to spit it back in Mommy's face and give me a bad look.
• You will only take one bite if you don't like something. If it's not something new, you will clamp your little mouth closed - so opinionated!
• You may be a picky eater, but you are a Weatherford and I know you get plenty of food! :)
• You still love bath time and will play in there until you're all wrinkled up.

• You still don't sleep well. I'll just leave it at that.
• You wear a size 3 diaper.
• You wear mostly 9 month clothes...we pretty much skipped completely over size 6 month. Thank goodness we didn't buy a lot of that!
• You do NOT like jeans. You will pull at them and whine until they're off. Thank goodness Mommy has you a million dresses for next summer rather than shorts! 
• You still do really well at daycare and seem to love your teachers. 
• You're sometimes a bully at school still and like to steal other baby's pacis. We'll work on that one day! :) 
• You may sleep really bad at night, but at least you nap well!
• You started yogurt and you seem to like it a lot!
• You had tubes put in after more than 10 ear infections, 10 days of antibiotics, 4 days of 2 shots per day, and 10 more days of antibiotics with the infection not going away.

• You officially started the separation anxiety stage the day of surgery. You clinged to Mommy, and it melted my heart instantly and did not make it easy to hand you over to the scrub nurse.
• You were a monkey for Halloween and got to go trick or treating around Mommy & Daddy's office. Everyone loved your little costume that Daddy picked out! :) 

My sweet Quinn, you are SUCH A JOY! I never knew how much I could love someone until I had you. We love every second we get to spend with you. Your smile lights up a room and instantly makes people love you and want to talk to you. You are a crowd pleaser and love to make people laugh. I say it every month, but I cannot wait to see what's in store for your future. Every stage gets better and I love you more every day! Mommy and Daddy love you to the moon and back!!!!!!!
