Live Action Cousins

This is a short video I took of the boys playing on their play mat at Gramma and Grandpa Baker's. You can hear me, Missy and Kathy all talking.

The Fabulous Baker Boys

I'm going to post lots of pictures, but I also wanted to let you all know that Colin is doing really well, he's started "talking" more and smiling more. He's holding his head up really well and has been sleeping 6 hours or more every night (well, except last night...we had 3 hour shifts again last night, he's been eating a lot last night and today, we think he's hit another growth spurt). Colin got a lot of new outfits while Shane and family were in town, including some matching ones with Shane, you'll see below. Aren't they cute?


Gramma, Grandpa and the boys


Grandpa and the boys in their matching panda outfits.


We had a hard time waking up Colin, these are the matching outfits from GG.


And here's GG with the boys in those matching outfits.


We finally had them both awake and in a good mood! Just in time for one more matching outfit, the pandas!


Play time! Both boys were enamored by the flashing star on the play mat.


Little Shane really loves to swing those arms and legs!


Sleepy time! Awwww. These are outfits from Gramma and Grandpa, look at the little feet!


The Baker men (sorry, it was the best shot I had on my camera!)

Mount Grandpa

What happens when you leave Grandpa Baker in charge:





Keep checking back, I'm going to post lots of pictures this week. We had a big week last week, cousin Shane, Aunt Missy and Uncle Brian were in town. I'll try and get more up this afternoon and then more through out the week.

Sweet Sweet Sleep

Hopefully this is the beginning of many more nights like this to come: Colin slept 6 HOURS last night! He went to bed at 9:45 and did not wake me up until 3:45. He really seems to understand our overnight routine now, we've got it down to about 20 minutes (from an hour!). I feel so good today, sleep is so precious right now.

And now, what you really want, a couple of pictures:

8 Weeks

Colin had his 2 month check up today. This means he had to get his vaccinations today too. First, the good news was that the doctor was very impressed with his development. He weighed in at a healthy 10 pounds 13 ounces and measured 22.25 inches long. According to the doctor, he had a great shaped head, his lungs sounded healthy, a nice color, and overall was given an A+.

His vaccinations came in the form on 1 oral, 2 shots in one leg and another big shot in the other leg. The poor little guy cried and screamed. Just recently he's started crying real tears, so Daddy got to witness this for the first time and it almost made him cry too.

The only thing she recommended was that we try to get his bedtime routine in earlier. Lately, we've been giving him a bath, then feeding, then reading him a book starting at 8 p.m. and getting him in bed around 9 or 9:30. He's been giving me a 4 hour sleep window at that point and then about 2 or 3 hours in between after that. So, we are going to start trying to get him down by 8 now, just bump it all up an hour. She said this would help with him sleeping through the night. So we'll see how it goes.

After our appointment Colin got to meet Brad's co-workers. We stopped by and I had lunch with them while Colin got passed around the women of the office, one even called him "literally the cutest baby I've ever seen." Duh. hehe.
