Catching Up!!

It's been a busy month since our last post. The biggest news is that Collin is off and crawling everywhere. He is certainly a busy body and exploring everything he can get his hands on. We will tell him 'eh-eh' or 'no' when he starts crawling for something potentially harmful. He'll stop, look at you, laugh and then continue on. Oh boy. Collin just had his 9month check-up and he is perfect -- just like his brother:) 20lbs, 29inches. He has been more consistent for sleeping through the night. Every 3-4 nights, he'll wake up and want a bottle, but most nights he'll sleep straight through. Additionally, his first tooth (bottom right) has popped through his gums. He has been drooling like crazy and chomping on his fingers, but unlike his brother didn't show many signs of pain/fever/etc.

Hugh's character is continuing to develop. He absorbs everything. The things that he recalls amazes us -- quite a memory. He certainly is exhibiting many characteristics of a typical 2 year old. He loves to have fun and is quite funny, yet is full of drama and is not afraid to test those around him. Just a few weeks ago, he feel and skinned his knee (multiple times in a day). Each time, he would throw a fit and shout over and over "I can't walk. No Mommy & Daddy. I can't walk." It was so over dramatized that Hugh and I could hardly hold back the laughter. So much for being a tough guy:)

Mommy and Daddy are doing great. Mommy is traveling every 2-3 weeks with some of her new responsibilities at work. Specifically, growing some global business. Being away from the boys for a lengthy period of time (1 week) is not easy by any means, but both grandmas are really a HUGE help:)

We are enjoying every bit of this warm weather and try to spend most days outside. We look forward to seeing family soon for Easter, as well as many upcoming birthday parties.

Cheers and Love,
Hugh, Stef, Hugh & Collin
