Colin update

So, the little man is now 4 months old & working on all kinds of new tricks. He's trying to roll from his back to his tummy, and is back to pushing up onto extended arms while on his belly. He's found his arm coordination & is reaching for objects easily now and starting to play with them. He's now putting himself to sleep in his crib & isn't wanting me to rock him much anymore, which is just too sad for me :( But, as a result, he's napping much better and sleeping much better at night. He's even gone all the way through a time or two! Enjoy the videos, but please excuse my running commentary. I apparently find it impossible to video without talking the entire time, imagine that!!

Here's a video of him rolling all the way over to his side trying to look behind him. If he'd kick his top leg over, he'd flip:

Here he is grabbing for his teething rattle & batting at the toys hanging down from his play mat:

And, one of him trying to sit up. He'd been sitting for a while (check out the pics below the video), so he was a little tired, but he's in his boppy pillow, which doesn't give him much support, so he's doing all of the work himself. Pretty impressive for a just-turned-four-month old!

And, the sitting up pictures:

And, we've been "posing" him in various hats around the house, so just some random Colin hat cuteness:

And, Colin and Mommy gardening today. He's finally big enough to get on my back! Yay--no more "in the way" baby. Disneyworld, here we come!
