When I had intended to write this blog Quinn was 18 months old. Sunday she will be 19 months old. We had her 18 month check and everything was great. The doctor did have to ask if she ever talked because Claire wouldn't stop talking. It was pretty funny. She is 33" tall (84%) and weighs 23lb 14oz. (44%) Tall and skinny. She had to get vaccinations this visit but did fine. She didn't even cry on the first one but when she got her flu shot she let it go. Let me tell you if you have not heard Quinn "let it go" you should be glad your hearing is spared. That girl can wail!
Quinn is quite the talker. She will jibber jabber away and even though I understand about 90% of what she says I am afraid others can only understand about 25%. Sometimes Claire has to help me out in deciphering. My favorite words that she says are medicine, okay, and yes. She makes all those words sound adorable.
Her favorite toys right now would be her baby and her stuffed piggie. The baby for sure goes everywhere with her. Luckily she allows us to leave it in the car when we go out. She loves to rock the baby in the rocking chair and push her in the stroller.
She loves to sing!!! She only has 2 levels of volume when she sings...loud and very loud. I have no idea why my children are so loud! ;) She likes to sing Jesus loves me and "tinkle tinkle wittle sar" She also likes the sunshine song. (You are my sunshine)
The child gets into everything. She is not afraid to climb up on and through things. She has mastered getting herself up on the couch and on chairs...and then the kitchen table. No fear I tell you! She puts just about everything in her mouth. I am constantly saying. "Quinn, get that out of your mouth!". If you give her something and want it back expect for it to be wet when you do.
She loves to eat. I can't say she has a favorite right now because she will eat just about anything you put in front of her. She knows how to use a fork but she chooses to drive me crazy and doesn't. Especially when red sauce is involved. (see picture above) She is a very messy eater and food is always in her hair. I am not real sure how that always happens.
She loves her big sister and wants to do whatever she does. If Claire wears a dress Quinn wants to. If Claire picks something out pink then Quinn wants pink too. They play so well together...I love hearing their giggles from another room. It makes my heart smile. Even though she loves following Claire around she also likes playing by herself and does so quite often. She usually is in her room playing with her toys or rocking her baby.
Quinn will ask to be tickled. "Ticka me mommy." She loves it and she has such a cute laugh so I can't help but oblige.
She likes to cuddle and gives great kisses and hugs.
She is a people person and loves to say hi to everyone. She can still be pretty serious around people but once she warms up to you be prepared for her to sit in your lap but don't be surprised if she sticks something you have in her mouth and then offers it back all slobbery.
