FEVER!

Colin got this hat from his cousin's in Wisconsin (thanks Gary and Tricia) - they think that the colors are for the Wisconsin Badgers, but they have to remember Nebraska has the same colors. We are ready for baseball season!!!

Colin has had a fever since Sunday evening. He is not acting sick in any other way, a little fussy, but otherwise doing all right. The fever got up to 104 on Monday and has been between 99-102 since. We are hoping the illness is coming to an end so we can all enjoy the nice weather that is on its way. He is sporting a mohawk in this picture, we are taking advantage of his cowlic.

Colin Is SO BIG!

We are now those annoying people who say, "HOW BIG ARE YOU?" "COLIN IS SO BIG" and he reaches to the sky. We love it though and think it is really cute. He also sticks out his tongue when someone sticks out their tongue. Enjoy the photos!

Pictures Are Getting Harder to Take

Colin and I have been under the weather for the past week. We are sorry that the blog has been lacking in excitement. Colin got his first tooth last week - Matt calls him fang. Colin dealt with that and I think a little bit of the stomach flu. I had the flu! It didn't really hit until this weekend, luckily Matt got home on Friday and became SUPER DAD.

Colin is starting to copy things that we do. He now claps if we clap and also imitates our noises.

Yesterday was Matt and I's 2 year anniversary. It was celbrated by not being sick and resting at home. Matt gets hit pretty hard this week, anniversary and Valentine's Day. He sent me 12 beautiful yellow roses. He ordered red...way to go Glenwood Florist=)

Tomorrow (the 13th) Colin is 8 months old!

Colin and Savannah

Colin is rolling all over the place and trying to crawl. It is almost time for a gate. He is getting to places a lot faster than I think he can! Savannah's world is about to change. Her tolerance of Colin may change real soon.

First REAL Haircut!

Colin went to a local beautician today for his first real haircut. He did REALLY good. She was even able to use the clippers around his ears. She took off quite a bit of hair. He looks like such a little man now.

Battling Winter

Colin does not enjoy winter quite yet. Maybe in a few years he will be able to appreciate the snow. Last week we ended up in the ER with a case of Croup. Now that Matt and I know what it is we certainly know how to identify it. The seal like cough was not fun to listen to and made us feel so helpless for Colin. He had a high temp and just wasn't himself, he was actually crying. So, after the Dr gave him a shot of steroids he was doing a lot better. We are still fighting a little cold, but nothing like last week.
