I think I'll go for a walk outside now...

What a day! And it's only Tuesday. We had Quentin's 9 month appointment this morning (I'll get to that in a minute). After dinner, we went on a walk. It was beautiful outside and Q loved it. As did Frodo.
Frodo wanted to bring his bone on the
walk with us. 
Q's 9 month check up went really good. Only one shot this time, and that wasn't too bad. The finger prick on the other hand, was way worse than any shot he's received thus far. It was to check his hemoglobin and lead. Both came back normal. Hooray!! He's doing fantastic otherwise as well. Our pediatrician was impressed with how social Q is. He doesn't have much stranger anxiety yet, and hopefully it won't be too bad when he does get it. Or, maybe he'll be like Julian and have no problem talking to anyone. Lord help us if thats the case. :)

Top 10 facts of Q at 9 months (in no particular order):

-He weighs 18.4 (20th%), 28.5 inches long (70th%) and his head is 17 inches (10th%).
-He wears size 12 month pajamas and pants/shorts. 9 month tops.
-He waves and claps
-He crawls EVERYWHERE
-He is starting to pull himself up on things
-He loves going upside down, playing hide-n-seek, being chased, and playing with Frodo's water dish
-He does a lot of jibber jabbering
-He laughs and smiles all the time
-We always get compliments on how good he is. He hardly ever cries and is so outgoing.
-He is the highlight of our days.

Here are few pictures from this past weekend...
Quentin doesn't mind wearing hats, and
I love him wearing hats, so it's a win win
Bath time is becoming more and more challenging now that
Q can crawl. Changing his diaper and/or clothes has now
become a 2 person job.
Q's first visit to the park. He loved watching
all the other kids. We'll definitely be making
lots of trips this summer. 

Chillin with Daddy!
