April

Nephew TJ (4 mos)

Who needs to stand up to play at the table?? Colin just flips it over!

Cousins playing so nice together!

New fun- pounding on the oven

And we'll flip over the walk 'n ride too

After pounding on the fridge too

April already! Colin is now 10 months old and officially a crawler. He is of course into everything. So much for getting anything done while he's awake! Oh well. He can also wave now when he wants to. That is much better than his little "heil" arm raising when he said hello to someone before! We did go to Vegas last week and had another good trip. I was bad and didn't take hardly any pictures. I'm glad other people took some! Colin had a lot of fun playing with cousin Addison (8 mos). They're stealing toys from each other already, but they also actually played and "talked" to each other too. Grandma Angie said Colin tried to love on Addison by knocking his head into hers. That's how he loves you- knocks his head on yours and then shakes his head on yours. Cousin TJ is still too little to get into the mix, but pretty soon Addison will have two big cousins to contend with! Enjoy these pictures. I'll have more next week after Easter!

Happy St. Pat's!

Well, no big celebrating St. Patrick's Day here. We did wear green- two days in a row! Colin and I were really busy today- running errands, taking Dee Dee to the vet and taking Rodney to work. Colin is all over the place these days. I don't get much done during his awake hours! He's not crawling- yet. He's still rolling, but I think that means he can just get to where he wants faster. He gets up on all fours to crawl really easily now so I'm sure it's not that far behind. He's after everything- the vertical blinds on the back door that are fabric, the baskets on the coffee table, dog toys, opening entertainment center drawers, etc. We think he's going through a growth spurt too. I fed him 6 times today- up from 4 feedings in the past. He kept waking up early from naps obviously still tired. We tried giving him a sizable snack before naps and that seemed to get him back on track. He's getting really good at the sippy cup without handles and is doing a lot better eating some things on his own. He's also sprouted tooth #3 and one more has a corner out, but seems slower coming in. Nothing too much new with Rodney and I. I'm taking over as the playgroup planner for church and send out the weekly e-mail bulletin for church too. Rodney had his review today at work and it was really good. His store was #35 in the country so that's great! Time for bed here. Enjoy these recent pictures of our boy!
