10 months...

My little big guy is 10 months old now!  Time sure is flying by fast!  Everyone said it would go by fast, but I didn't realize how fast it would really go by...kind of bitter sweet.  He is pulling to his knees and standing more and more everyday!  Before long I know he'll be taking steps and walking, then running and I'll never be able to get him to sit down again haha!  He is getting more teeth, 3 right now with a 4th working it's way out.  We had started trying him on table food and that's a little more difficult then I thought it would be.  He has no problem eating table food, like waffles, noodles, veggies, at daycare, but at home it's a different story.  I have a difficult time getting him to eat anything other than baby food at home. I'm not sure if it is the difference of school vs. home and like at school he has other kids that are doing the same thing as him.  I don't know, but I'm sure he'll catch on soon enough...especially since he eats more meals/snacks at school than at home.  He babbles more now since his tubes, but still only says dada :) he just laughs if you say mama! 

My nephew Logan turned 1 last week and we had his party this past weekend.  Colton and I went to stay with them Friday night to help out with the party Saturday; I was watching the kiddos while my sister and brother in-law got things together.  Saturday afternoon I took Colton and Logan for a wagon ride and Colton loved it!  This was his first wagon ride and he didn't want to get out of the wagon!  He kept wanting to go back outside and ride some more.  During the party he spent majority of the time in the wagon, content just sitting in it.  So now I've add a wagon to his list of Spring must haves :)  He also had a great time swinging at my sisters house too!  He just laughed and smiled the entire time.  He really enjoys going to my sisters house!!

First Tooth...

It is official...we have a tooth!  Well Colton has a tooth :)  I noticed over the weekend that he had a little white spot that looked like it wanted to break through, and voila it broke through Monday!!  It is crazy how much more a tooth can poke out everyday.  What's crazy is that it isn't a top or bottom middle tooth, it is a top tooth off to the side!  I can't quite tell if it is an incisor or a canine yet, but should be able to tell soon enough!  I was worried a while we were going to have to get him dentures for his birthday :)  Maybe we can ditch that baby food sometime soon...

Time Flys...

My oh my how time flys!  I can't believe Colton is already 6 months old!  In the last 6 months we have accomplished many things:
  • sleeping through the night
  • eating fruits, veggies, and meats
  • rolling from tummy to back
  • trying to roll from back to tummy
  • sitting up
  • 'talking'
  • teething
It is just crazy how fast everything happens, and how much they change in a short 6 months.  When I was pregnant and before, 6 months seems to drag on, but now 6 months is flying by before my eyes.  Before long he will be crawling, walking, talking, and growing bigger and bigger.  It is crazy how much they change in a short amount of time...and to think how small he was this time last year.  Tomorrow Colton is moving to a new daycare, one closer to me...like AT my work :)  I am super excited to have him so close to me during the day and to know he is in good hands.  Our last daycare wasn't really working for us.  I know that no place will be perfect, but I felt like he needed to be somewhere else other than our original daycare.  This month will also be Colton's first Christmas.  We already have the tree up and he love staring at the lights and reaching for the ornaments; I'm soo happy he can't crawl yet otherwise I don't think our tree would survive!

5 months

Well Mr. Colton is 5 months old now!  He's getting so big and is growing way faster than I expected.  He is such a big boy, no literally, he is a big boy :) he is big for his age, and is actually as big as cousin Logan who is 2 months older!  With all he has been eating it really doesn't surprise me though...I am not looking forward to his food bill when he's a teenager!  Colton is trying to roll from his tummy to his back, but isn't really interested in trying to roll from his back to his tummy...I'm sure he will be doing that soon enough though.  We are starting to Christmas shop for the little man and it is way harder than I expected.  I guess it is kind of harder because I have mad it hard by buying this early instead of waiting until Christmas :) Like we were going to buy a jumper for him for Christmas, but I found one for a great deal and couldn't pass it up; I'm glad now I didn't wait because he loves LOVES the jumper.  He hasn't started cutting teeth yet but he drools all the time and all over everything.  Oh one funny thing, he has found his voice and 'talks' all the time; sometimes he tries to reach a different octave and you can hear his voice cutting in and out...super cute!!

Hands and fingers always in his mouth
