Adventures in Food Continue

I have absolutely loved watching Quinn try new foods and have enjoyed making her new fruits, vegetables and (now) chicken to try. She has eaten vegetables that I had never had myself (i.e. Rutabega) and is a great sport about it. She's had apples, pears, apple/cinnamon/raisin/oatmeal (fav), strawberry fig (fav), mango, peach (fav), blueberry apple, banana, corn (fav), sweet potato, sweet potato/broccoli (fav), sweet potato/chicken, rutabega, cauliflower, green beans, carrots, sweet zucchini/carrot (fav), potato, corn/potato, sweet potato/spinach, butternut squash, pea/edamame...I think that's it's so far. Oh and yogurt...and a bagel. Yes, I gave her a frozen mini-bagel to help with teething and she ate some of it. ha! Oh and lemons...she can suck on a lemon slice and not make a face at all...so funny! Still not a fan of Avacado. 

Quinn is also totally rocking the sippy cup. She drinks water out of it.

Last week we decided to give her "puffs" and see how she would do at picking them up and feeding herself. She did great!! You can see the determination in her eyes.

Kisses (melt)

My daughter melts me each and everyday but something just recently put it over the top...she learned to give "kisses." Yes, the open-mouth baby kisses but they are indeed kisses. I got tears in my eyes the first time she did it to me. And to top it off Mike, Caroline, Grammy and Hope have seen her do it and recognized it was a kiss before I said anything! OMG...melt me to pieces.
Quinn has also given her Daddy kisses and I caught a pic of one...

"talking"

Quinn is "talking"...well more like making lots and lots of sounds but this one sure sounds like "dada." Check it out.

Clapping!

A few weeks ago Quinn started to mimic us when we clapped. Now that I"m paying attention to it, I realize that I clap and say "yaaayyy" A LOT. I would be shocked if "yay" wasn't an early word of hers. But here is Quinn learning to clap.

Summer is almost here!

And Quinn is rocking her shorts!

Goodie bags ROCK!!!

Quinn had a great time at their Cat in the Hat themed birthday party and really loved her goodie bag. :-) Thanks Garret and Walker's mommy! :-)

It was a fun day to spend with the twin, Gordon Overbay, Max Carter and Kellan Thompson. (Luckily there was another girl there that Quinn "played" with.)

Quinn turned 7 months on April 29th and we took her monthly pics to document the occasion. (Yes, this post is WAY late, but the pics were actually taken on time.)
