9 month checkup...

Colton had his 9 month check up today. We weren't able to go to his normal pediatrician, but the one we saw was great!  Colton weighed 22 lb 3 oz and was 29 1/2" long!  The doctor said he is the size of the average 1 year old!!  He is definitely our big boy!   After the appointment Colton, my brother, and I went and did a little shopping.  While at Target we were talking about Colton not really talking and how the doctor said that after he gets tubes not to be surprised it he starts talking quick.  We were just walking and talking and listening to Colton babble on and on.  Then out of nowhere he says 'da da'! We both looked at each other like, what?!?  Did he?!?  Then he goes blah blah ba la da da blah! It was sooo cute!  He did it for Daddy when we got home and he just smiled and laughed :)  big boy needs to slow down on the growing up!!

6 Month Update...

Colton went for his 6 month check up last week; he weight 21 lbs & 15 oz and was 28 1/4" long!  My big lil' man is in the +95% on weight and 90-95% on length.  He is a big boy, but the pediatrician said his is in proportion so he isn't worried about it.  Maybe we have a line backer on our hands...

Last week Colton also rolled over for the first time from his back to his tummy; he's all over the place now!  Since he can officially roll over and back over, he just flips and flops all day it seems like :)  He is also sitting up great!  We still put something on the floor behind him, but not to support him, just to soften the fall if he decides to launch backwards.  He just sits there and plays with his toys and is starting to reach for things when he wants them...that means crawling is in the near future!
