So...a little background on these videos. Colin has still been using the binki to fall asleep and we decided that it was time for it to go. So we used our wise Sister-in-law, Jenn's, tactic, and had him buy something fun at the store with his binkis and basically run him to the ground with activities and stuff outside. He bought a scooter and bike that came together and was pretty excited at the store but a few hours later when it was getting late it was a whole other story you can see for yourself.

Before




After

Colin is actually doing pretty well, better than we thought. He falls asleep just fine he just has a time here and there where he wakes up in the middle of the night and can't fall back asleep but he is starting to fall back asleep by himself. And luckily we have not lost his long 3 hour naps he still likes those, thank goodness!

Making her Debut!

Riley Nicole was born June 22, 2009 at 1:25 PM. She weighed in at 7lbs. 15.9oz (we consider her an even 8lbs though) and she was 19 1/4 inches long. It only took her a short 4.5 hours to arrive after they broke my water and boy am I glad that she didn't take any longer! ;)

Samantha and Jadyn are thrilled to have their baby sister here and LOVE to hold her as often as they can.





Here is Jared with his 3 little girls. This is one lucky guy to have so many little women that love him!


We came home Wednesday morning. It is nice to be back in my own bed and my own element. The 2 days rest at the hospital was nice, but there is no place like home!


I'll post more pictures later!

Hey

Hey guys I posted to my blog.

A Cute Story

So the other day a strand of hair fell on Colin's highchair tray, he said to me "Mom, come here..." I walked over saw he was pointing to that strand of hair when Colin said "a dinosaur bone". Ah, I couldn't help but laugh.

So here are some videos of Colin the first is quite old but boy can he bust a move and the second shows his workout regimen.
