Vince is a Royal Gummi adopted from the Gummi Bears Adoption Agency - the banner linking to the Agency can be seen below his picture. This will be my last adopted child.
He's starting to become mobile now - before, he could pull himself into a crawling position but couldn't actually go anywhere. Recently, however, he started shuffling around on his hands and knees, so I'm constantly having to watch he doesn't get underfoot. Baby Gummis are so small it's easy to miss seeing them if you don't watch out - it was the same with Rufus and Paula. Mind you, having cared for three Gummi babies, I'm fairly used to it now.
Of course, Vince's natural curiousity will more than likely keep me on my toes as he gets more and more confident about moving around. He's not even a year old yet and I've already got visions of him wandering off somewhere and getting lost. As it is, every time I open the door, he tries to make a break for it and I have to grab him quickly. I've warned the rest of the kids to be careful about opening doors if Vince is anywhere in the vicinity.
He has also started to babble and, when he isn't crawling around the house, he'll sit there making lots of random noises. He also likes to watch what the others are doing and, so long as he doesn't try to interfere, they don't seem to mind.

These are a few of Vince's belongings. The rattle is made of plastic and filled with dried peas - Vince is fond of banging the furniture with it. Then, there's a pair of Mutant plushies, consisting of a Simian and an Avian. These came as a set and I'm waiting to see which one Vince likes best. There's also a bouncer seat which he's seems to enjoy sitting in, plus a feeding bottle and toy zebra.

This is Vince's bedroom furniture. There's a blue cot with matching chest of drawers and a table to store his odds and ends.
