Sunshine Day: 11 Months Old

Miss Quinn Eloise Jackson is 11 months old!
How can this be? The last month before we have a one-year old. We are so happy yet a tad sad at the same time.

Quinn has three bottom teeth and the two top are coming in (we can see the ends of both of them poking through her gums...ouch). Quinn can pull up on just about anything (who am I kidding, ANYTHING) and can walk using a toy to balance herself. She can also climb steps. We cheered when we first saw her do this but then looked at each other and wondered why we were cheering that she can climb our 17 steps...parental pride over common sense.

Quinn eats most anything we eat. We still give her homemade babyfood for lunch, but she has "big people" food for breakfast and dinner. Quinn loves water...don't even try to give her juice, girlfriend isn't having it. I kind of like that.

Our baby girl can say moo, quack and something that sounds like meow. She has said dada, mama and gaga...we're kind of thinking gaga is the cat. And speaking of Finn, Quinn can also close doors. She accidentally shut a door on his tail and he had to have a little procedure but all is well now (and she felt really bad about it...she told me).

What else is happening with our little Q babes...she can wave, clap, pat her legs, shake her head "no" (what about "yes"?), bang toys together, turn on toys, etc. She is attending a music class for tots on Mondays and so far has loved it. Quinn also likes to play peek-a-boo, dance, splash in the pool/bathtub and "chase" with daddy and mommy.

We're so proud of our little girl and blessed to be her parents. Hard to believe the next post will have "year" instead of "month"...didn't I just have this beauty?

And now for the pics!
