Happy 1/2 year Birthday Quinn!!

Yesterday was Quinn's 1/2 year birthday, she is now 6 months old! We bought her a little toy to celebrate and wrapped it up with tissue paper. She loved playing with the tissue and tearing it open. I think she liked the tissue more than the actual toy!

Halloween Preview

I picked up this cute little ladybug costume while I was at the "Mama Cents" consignment sale in September for $5! We tried it on today and I couldn't resist taking a picture of Quinn in it! We will be sure to post pics of the complete costume (black leggings and a ladybug onesie) after Halloween. We're going to a Halloween party that one of her little friends from our playgroup is having, can't wait!

Quinn is 6 months old!!

Happy 1/2 year birthday to Quinn! I CANNOT believe she is already 6 months, it feels like yesterday we were in the hospital with an itty bitty new born! We had her 6 month check up- a little different than normal this time because Quinn tested positive for H1N1 over the weekend. :( She left the appointment today with a clean bill of health-Tamiflu is a lifesaver! Now that we're going to be adding more solid foods to her diet, we picked up a high chair on our way home.

Now, does this look like a girl who has the flu? You never would've known it just looking at her, she even had a smiling face the day she tested positive at the Pediatrician's office!

This weekend my sister and her family were also here visiting. We made it out to Sea World on Friday (the day before we found out Quinn was sick). We had a great time and so did all of the kiddos. Although it was a bummer that Quinn was sick and couldn't play with the kids as much as we would've wanted, it was great to have them here with us.

More Pumpkin Patch Pics

One of our playgroup friends is a professional photographer, she does amazing work!! She was so gracious to take some pics of Quinn at the Pumpkin Patch. To check out more of her amazing work visit: www.gigglesandbliss.com

Pumpkin Patch

Today Quinn and I went to the Pumpkin Patch with our playgroup. Here are some pictures of our mini photo shoot!

The Latest

Quinn is now rolling over from stomach to back and back to stomach! She can also sit alone in her boppy pillow! She is now grabbing EVERYTHING in sight! Mommy and Daddy can no longer eat dinner with her in our laps- Jaime's plate almost bit the dust the other night after Quinn tugged on it. Here's some pics of her in action:

Proof that she'll grab anything in arms length- even my camera. :)

Mama Cents!

Oh my! Last night Jaime's cousin, Roxanne and I went to the mecca of all consignment sales in Austin. It is called Mama Cents and I believe is held once a year. Anything you can think of relative to being a mother and having children you can find there. Roxanne actually had some tickets to shop before the sale starts (which I believe is today) so we really got the pick of the litter! We showed up at 7:30 with empty strollers (we used our strollers as shopping carts!) and tote bags and shopped until it closed at 10:30! I bought a really cool foldable gate that will keep Quinn away from our stone fireplace and will also fold out to a big rectangular play area. We purchased some great clothing- Gymboree, Baby Gap, Children's Place to name a few. I believe I also bought enough toys to take us through her teen years- just kidding, enough to last a while though! My favorite purchase is her Halloween costume. I was planning on making one but when I saw the cute little ladybug for $5.00 I couldn't pass it up. There is no way that I'd even be able to purchase the fabric for that much! I'll have to post a pic of her wearing it soon-too cute! I got home last night at 11:00 to find Jaime and Quinn sound asleep. :)
