6 Months!

Today, Colin is 6 months old!

It has been an exciting month for Colin.

Here are some of his highlights...


  • Colin got his bottom 2 teeth (you can see them peaking through in this picture!). They came just days after he turned 5 months. Ironically, both Natalie and Sadie got thier bottom teeth just days after they turned 5 months old too! His smile is even more cuter with those teeth.

  • Colin is again sleeping through the night. I was all prepared for having him "cry it out," but he must have heard me talking because he started sleeping through the night the very day I was planning to let him cry. I think it had a lot to do with increasing his daytime bottles to 8 oz and giving him a bottle (rather than mommy) before bed. A full belly is quite nice.

  • Although it is not something he does often, he can and has rolled over.

  • Colin is loving the jumper. He can literally spend hours a day in that jumping and smiling.

  • He is doing this super cute nose scrunch when he smiles big.

  • Colin is just starting to enjoy some food. I started giving him cereal a little over a week ago - it was fun and frustrating to watch him figure it out. For a while, he was so confused by it. Just looking at me and the spoon with a look on his face like, "why are you pushing that spoon at me?" Just over the last couple days, he has figured it out and we can't get it in him fast enough. He has only tried bananas, but more will come soon!

Time is flying by and can't wait to watch him grow with love over the next month and the many more to come!
