Some New Things

Collin just continues to get more and more of a personality every day. He is quickly learning that there is so much to the world and he is going to do what he can to be a part of it all. However, Miss Mary at daycare said that "He is just such a nice little boy, very easy going. If there is something he wants and he can't reach it, no big deal! He will just find something else to play with." So yes he wants to be a part of the big boy world but is still not so into the work that must be put into it all, this is all just like the rolling over thing!!

However the other morning Eric was out in the back yard and Collin was dying to be doing what Daddy was doing. He sat at the window and just looked out, even tried to scale the door. This went on even after Eric was no longer out there. It soon became so much fun to just lick the window!!

Some of the newest excitement has to do with of coarse EATING! Which is Collin's favorite thing to do. He is now eating a few finger foods, however, it has taking quite a bit of practice to be able to pick things up, then gum them enough to eat them. But even though we haven't gotten the pincher method down we are getting better. This morning while home on a SNOW DAY, Collin enjoyed toast and peaches! He was shoveling this down like the poor kid had never eaten before, which we all knew is far from true.


Here is Collin looking so proud to be holding the spoon in his hand!

Also, Collin is learning to mimic his mommy and daddy. He has a play phone and this morning he kept picking it up holding it to his ear, then would pass it on to me. I guess this may be a bad sign down the road....hopefully he isn't beggin' for a cell phone when he is 12!
