A Perfect 10!

Dear Quinn,


10 months old! Hip hip hooray! You are in double digits now. That is incredible, amazing, and mind boggling! But not surprising, since you are all those things.....incredible, amazing, and sometimes mind boggling.



Milestones and other happenings this month:

1. Rolling. You are rolling all over the place. You never stay in one place for long.
2. Crawling. You are so close to crawling all over the place. You just forget to move your arms....funny girl.
3. Surgery. You handled like a champ. Again not surprising. You endured much worse things when you were much, much smaller.
4. Teething. You have one, possibly two, little teeth trying to pop out on the bottom middle. I was trying to tell you to do while you were getting the "good" drugs in the hospital, but no such luck.
5. Sitting. You are sitting pretty reliably, and look so cute doing so.


6. Playing. You love toys, especially your kitchen, your walker (although you are nowhere close to being able to reach the floor), your keys, remotes, phones, your rings, and anything that sings or makes noise.
7. Books. You love to be read to and enjoy looking and listening to stories.
8. Eating. Sigh. Still not great. Hopefully tubie will help in this department.
9. Babbling. You talk all the time, and are starting to make more consonant sounds. You might be saying dada before we know it.
10. Singing. You also sing all the time. You wake up singing in the middle of the night. You love Pat-a-Cake, and can roll your hands, and are working on the clapping.

(Dad put your arms in your leg holes, and your legs in your arm holes today. You thought it was hilarious.)

11. Temperment. You are happy and laid back. You have opinions, but usually will just go with the flow as long as you can have fun doing it. You are easily comforted, and love to smile and giggle. (Even the nurse commented on your easy going nature.)
12. Hair. Coming in nicely. You still have the most/longest/thickest right up front, and it is coming in a nice light brown. It looks so pretty with your bright blue eyes.
13. Clothes. You wear 3-6 months in most things. You can only wear 3-6 month leggings, not regular pants yet, but that works, because leggings are so in right now.
14. Body. You are still teeny tiny. But you are getting longer, just not wider. You switched from when you came home from the NICU, when you were short and wide. Now you are long (kind of) and lean. You are the same size as your BFF Odessa, of course, she is quite a bit younger. It is pretty adorable.
15. Sleep. You are a great sleeper, and still super easy to get to sleep at night. You still just take cat naps, but you easily sleep 12 hours at night, with waking up once or twice. We'll have to see what happens with your new eating schedule.
16. General Craziness. You have this down perfectly. You are wild and silly. You love to throw your body around, and do anything fun or crazy.



We love you so much!

Love,

Mommy and Daddy
