Can you believe that my sweet baby Collin will be 6 months old in less than two weeks? Where has the time gone?Anyway, Collin is doing just great. He enjoys playing on the floor and rolls a lot from back to front. He still hasn't rolled again from front to back though, and often gets frustrated when he gets stuck there. As you can see, Collin also enjoys grabbing his toes.
Collin's favorite thing still has to be bouncing in his bouncy seat. Here's a new video of him doing that. If it's possible, he's bouncing even harder than before (his feet sometimes push off the ground!).A few weeks ago, Collin got both of his front bottom teeth! They are very cute, but it's impossible to get a picture of them showing. Sorry...
Collin has also started eating solid foods. So far he's had rice cereal and oatmeal, as well as sweet potatoes, avocado, and bananas. Those bananas have succeeded in stopping him up, so his next food will be prunes!
For Christmas, my parents ordered a new sheet set for Collin with a cute transportation theme. Well, we finally got it in the mail last week, after Sears.com messed up the original order (they sent us a skateboard... seriously). Anyway, I was so happy to finally put his nursery together and make it look more boyish. Here's the finished look.
Don't you just love the wall stickers? I found this set on-line, and couldn't resist when I saw it had a double-decker bus sticker!
Collin has also been spending more time in his walker and play pen. I figured the play pen would be a good idea for now so I can have more control over the toys in there with him. We have a lot of baby proofing to do when he starts moving. I am not looking forward to that at all!

That bouncy seat video is HILARIOUS! Oh My Goodness!
My girlie was stopped up by all kinds of things! Bananas, blueberries, strawberries, sweet potatoes... Prunes, pears, peaches and the dark green veggies helped, but I still had to give her a glycerin suppository every now and then...not fun for all included!!!
Aw, his room is so adorable!
He is a stunningly beautiful child! At first I thought he looked like Grampa Stryker...now...not sure! It's great that the nursery is 'done!' Must feel really good! I'm waiting until Dave finishes law school so we can PAINT in the baby's room!
Take care and HUGS to everyone! Love, Tara
Becca, the crib set looks great! Worth the 3-month wait!!!! Collin is so funny in that bouncey seat!
Eli started walking yesterday...it's about time - he's 15 mos now! He's been taking steps but yesterday he literally stood up in the middle of the living room holding onto nothing, and walked all the way across to Ben...then later he walked over to me from Ben (across said living room!)...it never fails to amaze me how amazing each 'step' is in their lives. Doesn't matter how many you have it's always a miracle! Miss you guys!!!
