Quinn - 6 months!

Age: 6 months and a few days

Weight: She'll be weighed Monday. 

Height: She'll be measured Monday.

Size: We just moved into a size 2 diaper.  She's still wearing some 3m Carters (onesies), 3-6m pants, 6m Carters pants are too long, but pjs fit perfectly.  I'm ready for her to fit into her 6-12m wardrobe!

Hair: Still growing, but more down the top middle so it's kind of a baby mohawk.  It's still pretty short and thin along the sides.

Teeth: Her first tooth (lower left) popped through yesterday at 6 months, 1 day.  I think the lower right one is soon to follow because she's still drooly.

Sleeping:  She's sleeping in her crib in her room at night now.  No swaddle, no sleepsacks, just pjs.  She doesn't seem to like the sleepsacks and fights them the whole time. 

She goes down for the night between 7-7:30 and wakes for the day around 7am.  She takes 2-3 naps per day, depending on how long she sleeps.  Naps in her crib are hit or miss. Sometimes she'll only nap for 30 minutes, other times it's 2 hours.

She's still waking at least 1-2x per night, either for a paci or for a small bottle. 

Eating: 4-5 6oz. bottles of Alimentum throughout the day, one 4oz bottle in the middle of the night. We've weaned her off of the Prilosec with no apparent discomfort!  We gave her her oatmeal for the first time yesterday and she was pretty unsure about it.  She did a little better today, but she's not taking to it like her brother did.

Movement: She still rolls all over the place, but she is an unassisted sitter!  She can sit and play with her toys like a big girl.  This is probably my favorite baby stage because she can sit up, interact and play but she can't crawl yet.  Although yesterday she made it up on all fours and was lunging for toys. 

She's tall enough to bounce in her jumperoo now. 

Milestones:  Sitting up all by herself.

Favorite toys/activities: Chattering and smiling, Tyson, Baxter, playing with toys.

Dislikes: Being hungry or sleepy or burpy.

Words: None yet, just chattering and screeching.

What a weekend!

I don't have a ton of time to update or post pictures, but A LOT is going on here this weekend.

1.  Tyson in potty training bootcamp.  We're having many failures, but several successes too!  We're so incredibly proud of him, especially since he had never peed on the potty before yesterday. 

2.  Quinn turned 6 months old yesterday and ate her first taste of oatmeal today.  And, a 6 months, 1 day, she has started lunging forward on all fours and her first tooth is visible (lower left) on her tiny gums.

Our babies are growing up!

Quinny Laughs

No one can make her laugh like her big brother. :)  Not sure why it turns sideways, but you get the idea.

Quinn is ready for winter!

Tyson and Quinn's winter hats arrived this week.  I had them made to match their coats.  Unfortunately, Tyson's coat is backordered.  Oh, and he also refused to wear his cute new hat.  Luckily, Q doesn't fight me too much with taking her picture -- yet.

Quinn is ready to wear her new hat and coat!  The hat is a little big and the sleeves on her sweater coat are too long, but it gives her plenty of room to grow.  Doesn't she look thrilled?
