My oh my.....How did this happen? My baby boy is one!
He wears size 3 diapers and 12 month clothes. He drinks whole milk only and uses a sippy cup! He only has one bottle a day before bed time:). He still loves his lovey and his paci. We will start working on the paci in the next few months. He takes 2 naps a day even though he has started fighting sleep during the day. He eats mostly table food, but I will occasionally give him some baby food when we have something that is hard for him to eat. He loves almost everything you give him, especially foods he can eat by himself. He will also sign more if you ask him if he wants more food:) He has 7 teeth (4 on top and 3 on bottom with the fourth on the bottom about to pop through). He has also started cutting his 1 yr old molars. He has brown eyes and BLONDE. I actually had to take a poll because I would say light brown, but maybe I am just in denial:). He got his first haircut on July 3rd. He also had his first ring pop that same day!
My expert crawler has become a stander/cruiser. He can stand on his own for a long time and can even transition from the couch to the chair very easily. He also loves pushing his "push toy" all around the house. The next step his taking his first step! It could be any day now. He has started to tell me "eeeee-eeeee" (as in "no no") when I say it to him. He is so silly! He has been daning when we say "wiggle, wiggle, wiggle, wiggle wiggle". He will also sit on the hardwood floor and spin in circles. When we start laighing at him, he starts spinning faster. He says "mama" and "dada" all the time! He still loves giving kisses and has started giving "squeezes" (hugs). He LOVES the dogs and will give them hugs. He also LOVES books and Baby Einstein. It is so much fun to watch him play with all of his toys!
This past year has flown by and has been the best year ever. Watching him grow and learn has been the most amazing thing to experience. I look forward to all the fun and excitement that the next year holds.
Happy Birthday Colin.....Mommy and Daddy love you so much! You have made our lives complete, and we thank God everyday for choosing us to be your parents!
