Birthday BOY!

Here is Quintin the day he was born and then today opening his gifts.






I can't believe Quintin is one today. So much has happened in the last year. The day Quintin was born was a scary one, we went to the hospital to be induced and after four hours we had to have an emergency c-section. We don't know why but his heart rate was dropping way to low. Quintin was born at 1:28 on October 23rd 2007 weighting 6 pounds 14 ounces and completely healthy. Our first night home was rough Quintin didn't want to sleep eat or stop crying so after four hours of crying I decided that we should have him checked out so back to the hospital we go and nothing is wrong just a fussy baby. After two or three nights of this he adjusted and to this day he still likes to wake up and eat once a night. At 11 months we heard Quintin giggle in his sleep for the first time, it was so fun to see him do something new. At 5 months he started to sit up all by himself. at 7 months he started to clap and wave in the same day he could a;so say a couple vowels along with some words like mama, the sounds of bubble butt and the word Hi. At 8 month he was already begging for food of the table so of course everyone gave it to him, and now it's all he will eat no more bottles unless it's bed time. At 9 months Quintin began to do his version of crawling which was a very funny army crawl but hey it got him around, He then started to use the wall as a way to walk around the house with out anyone having to help him for almost a month and a half we watched him do this. At 10 months he took his first 4 steps without help from anyone or anything. He was so excited he started to clap and fell over. along with having 2 teeth and a very strong personality Quintin learned how to dance when he could hear music. At 11 months he is copying about any word you say to him along with picking his nose, pulling everything out of the cupboards and loving every minute of it. Here he is at 12 months walking playing and having a ball without a care in the world he is such a beautiful baby. We love him so much and couldn't ask for anything more. We are so blessed with still healthy little boy and for that we are grateful. Happy Birthday Buddy.
