"Sunnnny Days...Chasing the Clouds Away!"

Sunday was another beautiful day, especially following the great Saturday that we had! Our little family went for a walk (hoping that Colin would nap) but instead, he loved it!

When we got back, we sat out front, soaking up the sun's warm rays...

It was so nice just to be outside! We really enjoyed our time together!
Colin sat in the grass for a little bit and tested it out! He loved pulling it out of the ground and feeling it.
We remembered that we had a pinwheel from last summer and there was just enough wind for it work very well! Colin was very excited!

At first, he was very curious and wanted to keep touching the shiny part...

so we showed him how to put his arm into the wind to make it spin...He loved watching it!

He kept turning his body so into the wind so that it would keep going!

Since it was Grandad's birthday, we had everyone (minus Uncle Timmy who is in NC and Uncle Jon) over to celebrate!

Colin helped Grandad open his presents...

...and then enjoyed playing with the tissue paper!

And after a fun and long weekend...Colin was wiped. He is all over the place in the crib now and loves sleeping on his side!

These pictures are fantastic! I especially love the ones where each of you took turns with Colin on the front stoop! The one with him looking up at Chris is beyond cute!! :)

And Happy Birthday, Mr. Williams!!!

Kelli - I came upon your blog thanks to the emails from school about the poster contest for Colin! Tommy and Colin are in the same class, and we have met once or twice at pick ups but I'm usually one of the last ones to pick up unfortunately! I have forwarded the info on the poster contest to friends and family to have them vote for Colin. Congrats on your efforts with the Polar Bear Plunge - my co-worker did it and when I mentioned your team name he said he kept hearing it announced!BTW - I am with you on the blog layout/design questions, and was going to suggest Cutest Blog on the Block but see you have it - I have no idea what I'm doing either!
