Happy Birthday, Quinn!

 One week ago was our little boy's first birthday!  We had a small, safari-themed party at the house.  Quinn unfortunately did not nap well before the party and was a bit cranky, enough to earn a nap during the party!  We still had a great time with family and friends.   Unfortunately,  I can't get the video of his first taste of cake to upload.

A few days later, Quinn went to the doctor for his one year check-up.  He now weighs 20 lbs, 7 oz, and is 30 1/4" long.  Adjusted for his prematurity, he is in the 50th percentile for weight, and 90th percentile for height (go figure).  If you don't adjust, it's 25 and 75 percent, respectively.  Guess he's catching up!

Black Friday had a different meaning for us this year...the day Quinn finally learned to crawl.  Look out world (and especially Mr. Bojangles), he's on the move!

Thanks to his Nonna and Grandad (and thanks to Ben for tuning up my bike), Quinn is now able to go for bike rides.  Here are some pictures of his very first ride:
