Firsts With Family

I'm posting several pictures today of the last couple weeks or so, some of which include Colin's "firsts" with family: meeting his cousins Ayana and Karolina, being held for the first time by Babcia Malgosia (pronounced bob-cha mal-go-sha, or grandma Malgosia), and being held for the first time by his Aunt Nikola. Finally being in an open crib gives Colin an opportunity to meet some of his family.
A short update on Colin today. Apparently Prevacid is doing the job for him since he's back to doing really well with all his bottles, taking upwards of 50 cc's at a time without discomfort. His weight gain has been steady too, up to 4 pounds, 9.5 ounces. And Chunkers is getting cuter by the day as evidenced by his new pics. Hey, I'm allowed to gloat a little ;-)
