The Big 5 (Months)
Quinn is five months old today!
She is getting to be such a big girl. She sits in her highchair and eats rice cereal,
can hold her bottle by herself,
and is getting closer every day to being able to sit up on her own.
She also got just her thumb in her mouth for the first time today.
We actually had a bit of an adventure today. Amy, Quinn, and I went to the cafe down the street this morning, Amy and I each assuming that the other one had keys with them. We got back to our building, and while our kind neighbor did let us into the building, we found that we had left the door to our apartment locked as well! Fortunately, Amy had her purse, which contained her cell phone and SmartTrip card for the Metro, as well as her wallet. So, we called Tim, who sent emails to the people who were expecting to see me at noon (this was around 11:30). We then took the Metro down to Tim's office, where we got his keys. We ended up taking the bus home, which gave us an interesting tour of some different parts of the city, including taking us through the Chinatown gate.
Quinn, who was in the BabyBjorn (front carrier) this whole time, fell asleep as we were walking to the bus stop and woke up shortly before we got off the bus -- an interlude much shorter and later than her usual morning nap, so I'm anticipating an early bedtime tonight.

Slings are made for days like that! We now have an EgroBaby back/front carrier. I had her in it at Arundel Mills one day and she slept harder that day than almost any other afternoon nap!

Hey Quinn,
You are growing so fast! Sooo Beautiful!!! I wish I could still get my foot up to my mouth! (Although some say thats where it resides most of the time anyway!!)As for swimmin in AZ, when we took Alysha years ago as a little one we could not get her out of the pool!!! Positive thought love energy flowing to you, your Mom & Dad...
