Yesterday evening, Robin reached another milestone. He sat up all by himself! Hooray! It was very wobbly and didn't last long, but up until yesterday he hadn't made it for more than two seconds. We're so very proud of him. He's filling his big shoes nicely!

Staycation!
Last week Dean took a week of vacation, and we went around Colorado introducing Robin to some fun places.
Estes Park
Robin with the new baby giraffe at the zoo
With the big T-Rex at the DMNS
Looking at a giant nebula
Robin is taller than a dinosaur! (25 inches now!)
Dressed in his supersuit for superhero night at the Children's Museum (the staff all thought he was great, and said he was the youngest superhero they've seen!)
Gone fishing
Hanging out on a lilypad in the pond
Robin the Fire Chief
Hanging out in a giant ant hole
Eileen and Dean holding Rosie the tarantula at the Butterfly Pavillion

Our little bee larvae!

Milestone!!!!!
Guess what Robin did for the first time today? He rolled from his tummy to his back all by himself! Hooray! *clap clap clap clap* 
The funny thing was, all the previous times that he's tried to push himself over, he's used his right arm to push and has been moving towards rolling over his left shoulder. But today, he rolled over his right shoulder and pushed with his left arm. I was so proud of him! I'm looking forward to repeat performances, and hopefully I can catch it on camera.

Intense concentration

Hallelujah!
On the other hand, he's gotten a bit more difficult because I believe he's starting to teethe. He's turned into a little faucet and gets quite a bit more fussy. We had a few really bad days when he screamed whenever we tried to put him down, so he stayed in Mom's arms all day long. Thankfully, he's also had some better days when he mostly has his old disposition back. I guess some babies can have teething symptoms for weeks and even months--I'm hoping it doesn't last too long!
Isn't he the cutest??!!!
