Quinton's Adventures

Quinton is developing quite a few interesting new tricks. He is still working on crawling. He can get one knee and a hand forward and then he either belly flops, scoots backward, or sits up. We think he is now getting 4 teeth instead of just 2!! He has been horribly fussy for a couple of weeks now.

We had to lower his mattress this last week in order to keep him from A) falling out of his bed & B)playing with his baby monitor. Today I put him down for a nap (I was home from school for lunch) and a few minutes later I heard banging on the monitor. I assumed that Quinton had figured out how to get the monitor off of his dresser again and was banging it on the dresser or crib. I went in to check on him and found him standing up in his bed near the end where his dresser is. He was grinning from ear to ear with a look that said, "I am up to no good." He, however, did not have the monitor in his hand. Instead I noticed that something large was missing from the dresser. I looked down and saw his ceramic piggy bank on the floor on the opposite end of the bed from his dresser!!! Somehow he either pushed it off the dresser or threw it, not sure which since we didn't see him do it. We have since moved anything that could potentially hurt him due to its weight or breakability and anything small enough to swallow off of his dresser as he has proven that he can get to it even when we think he can't. My child is way to smart/sneaky for his own good. I have a feeling he is going to get himself into lots of trouble in the years to come!
