This girl, this girl...she is all things sweet, cuddly, independent, and quirky. On the other hand, she is also becoming very sassy, demanding, quick tempered, and a bit mischievous!! Typically toddler traits, but also giving us slight nerve-racking thoughts of what our future holds with this little thing!! Good and not so good, we wouldn't trade a minute that we have with her! She is full-force on the move doing her thing most of the day. She wants to be right in on the action with brother and is rarely even phased by any rough-housing or big brother authority he gives her!! When he's not around, you would think she would want to just drink in all of our attention, but she is usually just looking around for or asking for Jude! She pretty much thinks he hangs the moon!! She has always been our little talker, but she is really beginning to say more and more things that we can actually understand. She will try to say and mimic almost anything you give to her, but still more often than not she thinks she is having a major conversation yet no one else can make any sense of what is coming out of her mouth!! Doesn't seem to mind her one bit though. I love it when we pick her up from the church nursery and there is a new volunteer' they always comment on her busyness and/or her chatter! She LOVES going to church and being with her "friends". She also thinks that she is a big girl when we are at Bubba's school. She instantly wants me to put her down to walk in by herself and will walk right into Jude's classroom and sit down with the rest of the kids. Cracks me up every time! Speaking of walking...she wants to walk EVERYWHERE by HERSELF, and you better be ready for a mega breakdown if you try to pick her up! I love this independence, but she doesn't really understand danger at this point, so we need to find a happy medium! Oh the fits!! They are not often with Quinn, but when they come, they come quickly and escalate to the top instantly! She goes straight into full out crying/screaming, super red-faced, tears streaming down face, not breathing until she has to, fully on fit mode!! But you give her what she wanted in the first place and she INSTANTLY stops like nothing ever happened! I guess a girl that just knows what she wants! Luckily right now, we can pretty much just laugh about it, but will need to "help" her learn how to use her words soon! Just don't eat around her if you aren't going to share, tell her no, or take something away from her and you'll be good. Oh wait, that's called parenting!!! On the sweetness side though, there just couldn't be more! She loves with her whole heart, cuddles with the best of them, gives you the sweetest smiles, and cute little bye bye waves every time you lay her in bed. Although we want her to stay our baby forever, we can't wait to see all this little girl becomes. With all of this personality, it is evident the Lord has big plans in store!
Look at that sweet face!
Guilty!!
Stole my cookie right out of my hand and ate the whole thing!
Checking out the crazy gorillas with Daddy
Loving all the sites at the zoo
Horrible picture, but caught her carrying around
her purse with all of her "important" stuff inside!
All dressed up in her fancy dress
(of course, a Grancy creation!)
This is how Quinn prefers to slide
Swimming with cousins and there was ice cream.
She got her own cup and was in HEAVEN!

"I'm sweet, she' wild...together we are dangerous"
Stats:
- Her favorite toys are pretty much anything that Jude is playing with that looks fun, driving Jude's cars around on the floor, her purse, our cell phones, and the vegetable steamer!
- She doesn't have any new words this month as much as really beginning to say things that she already knows better.
- Currently getting more molars in, but I honestly lost count on how many teeth she has in total!
-Wears size 18 month clothes, size 3 shoes, and size 5 diapers.
