9 months

I've always been amazed to see a baby do certain things: shoveling food into their own mouths, crawling around a room picking up different toys, pulling up onto furniture and anything that offers a place for a little grabby hand. However, until I've been able to watch Colin every day for that past nine months I have not fully appreciated a baby and all the development that goes along with being one. I am totally captivated watching Colin work at and develop his new skills. Often it's one hour he can't do it, and the next he can. It's incredible.

You're on your way to the double digits! We love you, sweetie.
