Quinn - 10 months

10 months - Just 2 more months til a year! Craziness!

- Quinn is now sort of crawling. She crawls normal a little bit but often scoots still with one of her legs curled in front of her. We call her Scoot-a-loo. Don't underestimate her though as she is pretty quick.

 - She has started to pull up a bit though usually just to her knees. A ok with us as we'd rather not have a walking kid yet.

- She waves bye-bye, if you're lucky.

- She has turned out to be quite the dancer. She's figured out how to make her Princess Castle sing and will dance along. She also dances to the tv even if it's just the opening/closing to the show. This makes her very distracted though.

- She still prefers Mom to anyone but will often settle for Abby. When Abby went back to school Quinn cried after she got out of the car.

- She's cutting her 2 front top teeth. In fact they broke through a couple of days after the 8th. 





 She's coming for me. 

Never safe from this Mama's girl.

Christmas!

First came Quinn, then as soon as the Christmas tree lights came on Reagan came flying down the stairs and then we waited, and waited, and waited. Finally I went up and woke Abby up! Giving her a piggy back ride downstairs was so worth it when I got to hear her gasp when she was what Santa brought her. Almost as good as Reagan proclaiming that she must not have been on the naughty list after all!

 Before.............








 Loved these gifts that they picked out for each other. 
They were so thoughtful and picked out the perfect presents for each other!

 We really could have just given her bows. 

 Utter chaos. 

Love Abby's shocked face when I stood on the couch.

Pot Roast

Not sure why but we were having pot roast and I thought why not? Actually I do know why, I hate baby food. Nothing makes me happier then when kids move on to table food. So much easier. And look at this face..........I think she was pleased. WARNING: FOOD COVERED BABY AHEAD.






St. Cuthbert Christmas Program 2013

Abby was SO excited for her Christmas program. She told us it was a surprise. Every day the week of she would tell us how many days we had til her program until it was finally time. This year was awesome because it is usually a rush of parents pushing to the front to see their kids and this year they videotaped it and showed it during the performance on the 2 screens. Genius!

 So excited waiting to start. 

First the whole school sang When the King Comes:


And then just the 4 year Preschool sang: 

I want a Hippopotamus for Christmas. 

Happy Happy Merry Christmas

Jingle Bells

And then after the younger classes sang they all came back together again to sing The Best Story of  All:





 All the kids(well one side of the bunch) patiently waiting to get to the cake! 

Cheese! All done!
