February Happenings.

Not too much happened in the month of February, though one event did occur that was worth documenting, I, Ashley Leavitt, had my 25th birthday. Boo. I can't believe I am 25. Oh well. It was a good birthday though. It was on a Monday, and Nathan only has one class on Mondays and so he was able to stay home most of the day. It ended with some tasty lasagna and a little Leavitt family get together and ice cream cake...also tasty. Nathan got me a new necklace for my birthday, I am wearing it in the picture below, it has two pendants on it, one that has a "Q" and one with a "N." I love it.

Woo. Birthday Picture.

Ah, earlier in the day, Quinn was just rolling around while I did some laundry - and we thought it would be funny for her to wear Nathan's gloves...and we were right. It's funny.

 

Aren't all babies 10x cuter in a laundry basket?!

Quinn - 8 Months Old!

Growing "baby" Quinn is eight months old as of last week. She is becoming so much fun, and everyday is better and better. Here are my favorite photos from this months photo "session"

She weighs about 16lbs, wearing size 3-6 months...still. But she will be moving on up to the next size soon.  

Still not crawling, but rolling everywhere. EVERYWHERE! It's always entertaining to find out where she rolled to while I was in the other room. I think the day is coming soon when she will crawl, so stay tuned.

She loves her dog, Duke. If she is ever upset, we just take to her to Duke's level and she instantly lights up and smiles. She loves to roll around near him so that she can pet him and let's be honest, pinch him.

Doing so much better with solids, she practically eats anything we give her, as long as dad gives it to her. Mom feeding her is a bit of a struggle.

Loves to shake her head back and forth, you know, the saying "no" head motion. I swear I didn't teach her that.

She is attempting to stand on her own, and is pretty proud of herself when she is standing. It's pretty cute.

A tooth is trying to make its way through - and I have to admit that I'm not terribly excited about this milestone, let's be honest. I'm still nursing. Enough said.

Sleeps almost through the night...she goes to bed at 7pm, and wakes up around 5:30am, drinks some milk, and then sleeps a little longer until 8:30am. 

She has been such a great baby, and we are excited for the coming milestones, but at the same time...they can wait - is it bad that I just want her to stay a little baby? I mean look at this...melt my heart.

That's an itty bitty Quinny.
