9 Months!

I can hardly believe that it has already been 9 months since my little booger was born. She has made my life complete. Sometimes I wonder how many times I have kissed her in her lifetime... and I bet its millions! I kiss her so much. I just never take one day for granted. She's my little monkey :)

Nap Time on Mom

Eating mac and cheese at Noodles&Company

Taking a nap with Dad

She has learned SO much in a month. From 8-9 months she perfected her crawling, started waving bye-bye, pulled herself to stand, "Woof"ed like a dog, and says Bell (for Bella). Holy cow! That's so much to learn in one short month!
Munching on her crib

My pretty girl

This kid LOVES to eat! She eats just about anything you put in front of her. She's addicted to her puffs! 



Miss Lenora Quinn:

  • Knows her name and turns to look at me when I say it (Usually telling her to get out of something!)
  • Can pull herself to stand in her crib, the couch, or chairs
  • Waves bye-bye
  • Says "Bell" when she's excited to see what Bella is doing and then "woof"s like a dog
  • Crawls like a pro..... EVERYWHERE! This kid is fast!
  • Loves food! She eats just about any kind of baby food that we give her. She LOVES puffs though
  • Loves her bath. You'll usually find me trying to wrangle a screaming, pruney baby into a warm towel because she didn't want to get out!
  • She likes to wrestle during diaper changes and when we change her clothes
  • She has ONE little tooth on the bottom! (and it's sharp!)
  • Gets up quite a few times a night recently -_-
  • Is wearing 12 month clothes and size 3 diapers

This kid LOVES to pull her socks off




We're still breastfeeding with zero formula. Thinking back to how little faith I had in myself, I am extremely proud of myself for nursing this little one 9 months and counting. Before you ask, "Well, when are you going to stop?".... Just don't :) She loves nursing and we will continue until we're both ready to stop!


We are slowly getting her play room finished. It's getting impossible to keep her contained in the living room!




She LOVES being outside. She likes to "eat" the wind. She cracks me up!

Swinging with Dad



In the morning we can hear her playing in her crib and talking to herself. It's so cute though because she stands at the edge of the crib by the door and waits for us to come get her. We're usually greeted by a huge smile and a hug :)



She LOVES to look outside. If we have the front door open, we'll usually find her sitting by the door watching the neighbors.


Happy 9 Months, Nora!
