July 2012

Less than two weeks until Mr Handsome is 1!  He looks like a little boy now rather than a baby.  Here is a video of some play time.  There are a few cute mannerisms that he has.  (things were being difficult so it was split into 2)

Colin is a walking maniac.  He does well unless there are some tricky obstacles on the floor.  He prefers walking where ever he goes.  We are just waiting for him to not want to be held and try wiggling out of our arms or becoming a 'limp fish'.  He also has been developing his sense of humor.  Farts and sometimes burps are funny.

He's a good little boy who sleeps and eats well.  We are excited about his upcoming superhero birthday.  He even got some shirts to build up to the occasion. (at the end of the July album)

1 more month...

Colin has one more month until his 1st birthday!  He's not excited when we try and explain it to him, but I think we are excited enough to count.  We are still thinking about what we are going to do.  We can't wait too long but we know it will be something on either the Sat or Sun (11th or 12th)

Is 53" of bear enough for a 1 year old Colin?

Walking is a breeze now.  Blankets on the ground only pose a little threat to his balance.  He can get himself up on his own although he has only done this a couple times.  The preferred method is to crawl to something to pull himself up and then walk around.  He enjoys his mobility.  He'll walk back and forth across the room making noises being a carefree baby.  It's quite adorable.

His top teeth have finally started coming in after waiting for almost 2 months.  It's been causing some changes in his normal easy sleep routine.  Hopefully this means he'll be more willing to tackle some other foods that he would spit out before because he couldn't break them down.

We are going to be going up to northern Maine to see some Findlen family for a few days so we should have some nice pictures from there to share at the end of the month.
