Jennifer's 365 Project

At his 4 month checkup the Dr said they'd recently revised the recommended age for introducing food. Now it's 4 months instead of 6 months (as long as the baby is ready). So we picked up a few jars of food to experiment over the next several weeks.

First up is carrots!
We tried two different times. He was a little more receptive the second time. Carrots are still weird, but he definitely had some in his mouth and swallowed a little.

So carrots for the next week!

Once things we did discover was that the cat really, really wants to eat baby food. I'm not sure if it's because he wants carrots, or if he's going to want to get into every jar we open. But we had a really hard time keeping him out of the way.

Quinn's 4 month checkup was today, which means shots. As you can see, he's doing alright after a few shots and some lunch.

It's been a busy week for Chris. Adam and Comfort stopped by for a few hours in the afternoon to visit and catch up on things.

Lorelei came over this afternoon and she and Quinn were able to play a little. She's getting so big!

Chris took Quinn on a long walk this afternoon. Part of the path was flooded, but since he's been using the Baby Bjorn the standing water was no issue (this was a more fun afternoon than what I did).

He's really enjoying the walker we picked up yesterday.

It's Father's Day! We had a pretty low key day. Chris was able to FaceTime with both his mom and dad.

We celebrated Father's Day early in Oak Park with my parents and brother. Quinn had a really good trip across the state. He woke up ready for action!
Jeff was able to snuggle with him a bit...

Chris went out shopping after I came home from work so I decided to try and give Quinn a bath by himself. He's definitely tolerating the water a lot better, although getting out of the bath and into the cold air is still not fun.

Hooray for 4 months!

My mom's good friend Marcia made Quinn a baby quilt. It arrived today and it's adorable. He wont stop staring at the pattern!

A co-worker of mine found a mini Tardis while walking at lunch. So she rescued it from the sun and now it's parked on my monitor.

The bushes we planted a few years ago really struggled last year. But this year they're coming back much healthier. This one even sprouted some flowers.
