Colin - 7 weeks -- December 21, 2011

Colin is smiling now. A. Lot. It is the cutest thing to see him do. He is such a dream baby. I could not have asked for more from him. He loves just hanging out and sitting quietly watching all the action that is encircling him constantly. He LOVES for people to get down in front of him and pay him some attention. I mean, he lights up when you do that. He is sleeping about 6hour stretches at night, but doesn't seem to want to go to bed until about midnight. (killing me) At least I get about 6 hours before he wants to wake up again though. Way better than with Kaitlyn!!
Colin is a special baby... a 3rd baby for sure. Content to hang out when he needs to, fall asleep as if on cue, tolerate a big sister that is barely 17 months older than him and doesn't fully grasp the meaning of gentle, and wowed by an older brother who positively dotes on him, loved fiercely by 2 parents who were not sure that 3 children was ever in the plan, but SO GLAD that God decided to take control and give us this precious being to care for while we can.
Love you Colin!!
