Our Bambino is growing up

Colin is getting very excited for his trip to Newfoundland to meet all his loving family and momma and daddy’s friends. We are leaving for NL in 10 sleeps and are very excited.

There are some exciting things going on around here. We got Colin’s cloth diapers and they are really absorbent and super cute. They are also very comfortable for him.

We also got a new bumbo chair. Well we got it at a garage sale for 20 bucks but they retail for about 60 dollars so that was a great savings. We love making deals. Colin also loves sitting in his swing. He often falls asleep there. We are trying to get him attached to a little frog so that he can sleep on his own eventually. We also got a new stroller given to us and will be bringing it to NL so you all can see it then.

Colin is giggling much more now and daddy sure knows how to make him laugh. His most obvious new skill is intentionally grabbing things. He looks at things for a long time and then grabs it – very cute! Momma’s necklaces and hair don’t have a chance now!

Tonight we had to put away a lot of Colin’s clothes and take out bigger ones which is fun and sad all at the same time. Momma loves how Colin looks around the room for her and stops when he sees her.

Momma and Daddy are now seriously starting to save for a house with a yard for Colin and his siblings to play in. We estimate that we will be in a house in about a year.

Colin also had his first trip to the beach and his first time in the grass. We didn’t put him in the water yet because it is too cold.

And of course it was Father’s day. Colin gave daddy a fishing rod, tackle box and a photo frame for his desk at work. We had a good day with a BBQ for dinner and an outdoor concert. Colin also gave daddy a card with lots of scribbles on it.
