Colin had an okay Halloween. He's not old enough to get what is going on. He didn't have trouble showing off his costume(s). He did like the attention he received from adults. Going up to houses wasn't a hit. He shook off candy that was offered to him as well. Apparently he's already learned that you don't take candy from strangers. Good job Colin.
His 'little person' development is moving along. He understands what we ask him and will usually do what we ask. He has realized that he can say no and ignore us though. That should be something fun to look forward to. Colin is also working on verbally responding. He definitely tries, it's just hard to understand him. He's working on his coordination too. He likes trying to stand things up and is very proud when it works. During meal times a baby spork and a cup are used a little. They are still difficult but he does try and use them. Books are also more interesting. He will react to books. For example, he will make gremlin noises when he hears "noisey". He will find characters in the pictures when asked. He is right only some of the time but he likes looking for things in the pictures. Overall Colin seems to be a happy, observant little boy that likes to try and figure out how things work.
He is October's album:
we may have some video or pictures later this month. We'll see.
