I CANNOT believe that our little Quinn is 6 months old!
She is getting so big. Every day she does something new and seems even bigger. She is fitting into 9-12 month clothes. She's a little porker. But I love it!!
She has become a really fun baby. She is full of smiles and squeals. She is so quick to smile, but for some reason she will not giggle unless I break my back and a sweat for her and even then she doesn't really giggle.
She is starting to get to that stage where she wants momma all the time. She always keeps an eye on me and sometimes gets upset when I leave the room. It makes me feel special, but kinda gets tiring too.
She recently got her first cold and it was sad to see her not feeling herself and snot dripping down her nose.
She is a horrible sleeper. She has gotten worse. I wonder if I'll ever sleep again really. Last night I counted and in a 10 hour stretch, she woke up 8 times!! I feel like a drooling zombie on most days. I really think its starting to effect me. I find myself not being able to remember simple words when I'm saying a sentence. Like today, for example, I couldn't remember "shopping cart" I was like trying to explain to Cole "ya know that thing you push around with wheels at the store?...."
I feel like I don't have the energy to do things for myself like get ready and workout. Ugh. We've tried sleep training her and both times it didn't work out so well. We let her cry for only like 20 minutes. The first time I went to check on her and she was just drenched in sweat from crying so hard and the second she got so upset, she came unswaddled and scratched her face off (she literally had five claw marks down her forehead that were bleeding...poor thing).
Other than the whole sleep deprivation thing, I am loving playing and cuddling with my little buddy. I'm so excited for her first Christmas!! She has loved all the lights and glitter.
She can now sit up by herself. She loves when we clap and she can also clap (sorta...in her own little cute baby way). She loves taking baths and gets mad when I take her out. She loves tv, especially football. She also loves to sit in the bumbo in the kitchen and cook with me.
I love this little girl so much! Her smile just lights up my day. Happy Half Quinn!
Howdy ya'll
What? You say I have to sleep?
Ahh. Love my little hot tub.
Sitting up like a big girl!!
She loved this ball pit at her little friend's house.
Love every one of those pictures. The sleep thing is ( most ) every mom's biggest stress. Doesn't she know how wonderful sleep is??? I know my kids still dread going to bed every night. Jack says its "so boring". Haha. Yet, he' s the one that falls asleep 30 seconds after climbing in. Love ya!
