we're back!
it has been a long time since we've posted an update -- because rather than "blogging", colling got to show most of you his new tricks in person while we were vacationing in MI. my fav new trick is that he waves "hi"!! he has been doing this for about three weeks now, and i have been trying desperately to get it on video. but, collin doesn't like to say hi to the camera :(. here is the best i could get.. (he is also debuting his donald duck voice here)
collin got to meet up with some of his favorite friends while were in michigan. here he is with brandon, gracen, noelle, lauren and olivia. it was baby-luvin' with the ladies, and race-car driving with the boys.
the bupper has also had a few summer baby firsts...

eight months!
on june 11, collin turned eight months!!
my friend, holly, gave me the idea to take a white-onesie photo with a sign each month to see how he changes, and i absolutely love her idea. but during this proces, i am finding out that the "outtakes" each month are almost more interesting than the picture with the sign. the first 3 months were pretty standard, but at 4-months i couldn't keep him from tipping over, at 5-months he kept grabbing his toes, at 6-months he was rolling all over (almost off the chair!), at 7-months i could barely keep his fingers out of his mouth and at 8-months ... well, it was easier to just put the sign on the floor and let him crawl around.

crawling update .... bottoms up!
diapered bottoms, that is! he getting closer... over the past week he has mastered the 'wounded soldier' crawl going .... FORWARD, yea!! and he can't stop popping his little butt in the air to get onto all fours, but then pops right back down again. he's moving and he knows he's onto something...
take a look at some of his latest moves ---
(our video camera battery is used up, and the charger is in ....michigan, boo. so until we get it back, we're stuck with the grainy quality of cell phone cameras...)

memorial day weekend in michigan, by collin
memorial day weekend was so much fun!! after a really long drive, and sneaking genie into a hotel thursday night, we finally got to grandma & grandpa thelen's house on friday just in time for mom & dad to put on goofy outfits and go to a costume party for aunt melissa's birthday. don't worry, i stayed looking cool in my regular outfit.
on saturday i played with my "bro", jackson ... he's just little yet but we still have fun!
and saturday night i got to play with other friends -- everett, he is a little bigger than me and can walk... wow! and i got to meet ethan and evan weber! they are sooooo tiny, i look big enough to eat them! guess what? this weekend, my other friend was born - olivia grace! i get to meet her in june and i can't wait, i think she will be my girlfriend ;)
there was no way we were going to let our moms take a picture of all three of us smiling!
and on sunday, mom & dad took me to the zoo to look at camels and polar bears. the other animals were all hiding because it was too hot.
we went to bed early that night and drove all the way back to conshohocken on monday. mom & dad were really tired so they let me drive a little... hehe
