Quinn had her 1 year check up last week and everything was normal! She now weighs 19.4 pounds and is 29 1/4 in. long. Her head apparently is still HUGE above average in the 80 percentile! Ha! The vaccine shots may have been the worst yet (for Mommy anyways)! It's totally different now that she is understanding what happens. I of course saved grabbed her once the nurse was done, only to start crying myself! Mike's literal response when he saw me was "Are you okay?!" - insert sarcastic tone and even more mommy tears here. Needless to say it was a rough few minutes, but she (and mom) managed to survive!
In addition to Quinn's 1st birthday with friends and family here in VA, she also got to have a celebration in Connecticut with the O'Rourke family! (She might just be a little bit loved!) We made the 9 1/2 hour drive up for our annual summer visit and Quinn seriously got to see just about everyone! We spent the 4th of July at Uncle Jim's house, went to Aunt Susan's in Fairfield for a cookout on Friday, and then on Saturday met Aunt Michelle for breakfast AND hung out at David's graduation party. We were so happy that she got to see/meet so much family and of course our social butterfly loved every minute.
We have one more trip to the beach planned and of course the VT game in Atlanta to see Gigi and Papa. I am literally pretending like summer is just going to go on forever (no panic attacks needed yet!)...it doesn't get much better than hanging with my girl all day! :)
