Other news

Collin is desperately trying to crawl, but just can't quit get it yet. He tends to go in the backwards direction more than any other direction. He does get very frustrated when he can't go forwards. With Collin teething, he got a cold. Dave and I have been trying to keep his nose clear, but Collin hates it! We feel so terrible for having to touch his nose, but it is necessary. He just wasn't his normal self with the cold, but now he seems to be on the up-swing and back to his normal, happy self.

Collin goes to the Doctor on Friday and I am patiently waiting to find out how much he weighs and measures. Dave and I think he weighs 23 pounds and is 29 inches tall. He is a BIG BOY!! He eats so well and really loves his vegetables. Collin now eats:
Carrots
Green Beans
Squash
Applesauce
Pears
Bananas
Prunes (only when he has to have them, if you know what I mean)
and He loves his rice

Collin has been enjoying his new toys from Christmas! He especially loves the light up and music toys. Thanks to everyone who made Collin's first Christmas very special!!
Here are a couple pictures from Christmas.

I have learned that crawling is the hardest skill for babies. (learned this from Logan's physical therapist) It involves many different muscles and lots of coordination, even more than walking. I think that is why many kids never crawl and skip to walking. So don't worry, Collin will get it soon...they all go backwards first, but he is SO close. It took Logan a LONG time to crawl. He will most likely learn to walk in much less time. Have fun chasing Collin when he does start to go!!
