Summer Days

So sorry it has taken me so long to post a new blog!! I promise it will never happen again! :)

Colin has 6 teeth now!! 4 on the top and 2 on the bottom. He has been hyper and really starting to morph into his own personality (and attitude!!!). Brandon, Colin, and I went out to breakfast yesterday morning and he sure let us know (by screaming) if he wanted or did not want something! Brandon was quite embarrassed!! He throws little tantrums now which are really pleasant- let me tell you! He will yell and scream when it is time to go inside after playing outside. My Dad says he is only preparing up for his terrible 2's!!! :)

He is saying 'uh oh' and 'Yabba Dabba Do' all of the time. It is so much fun to watch him change and listen to him babble!! Colin is also starting to run- especially when you tell him to put his shoes on, get dressed, or get a diaper change!

Colin & I spoiled Brandon on Father's Day... but he sure deserved it! We bought him a new pair of Nike Shocks, a Cubs Frosty Mug, and we made him a garden stepping stone. It says "#1 Dad" and it has Colin's hand print in it. It is the neatest thing and we have it out by the pool! Unfortunately Brandon had to work on Father's Day, so Colin and I went over to my parents house where they had a nice family cookout.

Speaking of pool... Colin is starting to get used to the pool. He doesn't like the first initial cold feeling, but he does get used to it. He is getting brave because he will walk up to the pool, lay on his belly and put his hands in the water. He hates his life jacket- but what little kid loves it??!!

One of my best friends, Sara, and her son, Hayden came over. We played in the pool and grilled hotdogs! Sara and I had never used a grill before- but we figured it out!! :)
