Cousin Timmy



Collin is a big cousin now. Little Timmy was born this morning a week early. He weighs 6 lbs 9 oz and is 18 1/2 inches long. The hospital let Collin in the room....we were surprised that they let us do this. We were even prepared to tag team watching Collin while we visited with the family. Timmy was so precious!!! He slept the entire two hours that we were there. Collin got close to him a few times and tried petting him like he does the cats. Daddy told him to be soft and he started to be more gentle. He was interested in Timmy's wrist band and wanted to take it off him. Timmy's mom distracted him by showing Collin the huge balloon in the room. It worked! He sat next cousin Dustin and played with the balloon. Someone dropped something on the floor and said "Uh Oh" and Collin copied and said "Uh Oh". He said it a few more times. I know he was just copying us but wonder if he knew why we said it. I guess we will have to wait and see the next time we drop something around him or he does.

Congratulations! A nephew/cousin. I guess I thought she was due on December for some reason. I bet Collin will be thrilled to have a playmate.
