Summer time!

As you could tell from our last post, he decided to walk right after he turned 10 months.  He improved everyday.  He will venture out a little more and try things a bit more daring each day.  This video is to show his improvement since the video from just a week or so ago.

Besides the walking, Colin has learned a couple other tricks.  He will give kisses.  There is a good fish-face picture in the album.  Although he doesn't wait long, he'll pull blanket or whatever to play peek-a-boo.   He's getting into more big boy foods like sandwiches and things mommy and daddy are eating for that meal.

It's finally been getting summer-like here so we've been doing more outside stuff.  Daddy got a bike seat for Colin to go riding in.  Colin got a kiddie pool that he is cautious about, but that should change.  He does love playing in water.  He is doing swimming lessons again, which are awesome if he has had enough sleep.

We have a couple trips/things coming up in July.  That album should have more pictures than this month.  Not a lot of activities to take pictures of this month.

Here is a bonus video.  We found this hilarious.  Socks just don't belong on mommy.

We've got a walker!!

Colin took his first steps a week ago.  We've been trying to get a good video of him walking, which was a bit difficult.  If he wanted to or not was hit or miss.  Tonight he was all about walking.  He stumbles around looking like Frankenstein after too much to drink.  He's getting better at it all the time.  Good job Colin!

The big 1-0

Ten moths old and Colin is still doing new things all the time.  He's extended his standing time but not bold enough to try to take any steps yet.  We are working on his vocabulary or at least trying to.  Here's a video of him doing some 'Colin-speak'

As you can see 'dad' or some variation of it is everything.  If he's frustrated, upset, sad or excited we get hit with a tirade of "DA DAD DAT DA spit DADT DADT spit".  It's pretty amusing but he isn't predictable enough to capture it yet.

We've been trying new foods quite a bit.  We are waiting for those 4 top teeth to break through still.  That may help him chew some things up better.  If he can't break it down enough, out it comes.  That is usually meats.  He loves bread and zucchini as well as his old favorites.

Here are a few June pictures:
