blogging away

a year ago today, i started this blog!! i hope you all have enjoyed it so far. this has been a great way for me to keep track of all of colin's milestones and i have found a website that can make my blog into a little scrap book!



i thought it was time for a colin update since i haven't done one since he turned one!

here are colin's stats from his doctors appointment last month:
length: 31" (50th percentile)
weight: 21lbs 5oz (5-10th percentile)
head circumference (because i know you are all interested :) 45.9cm (10-25th percentile)

overall, he is a very healthy toddler!! he is very lean and active (hence the low weight percentile) and he is developing at the perfect rate!

colin has become quite verbal in the last month. here are a list of his words...
mama/mom
dada/dad
fish "ish"
teeth "eeth"
ready "audi"
please "weese"

drink "wint"
oooohhhh

he also does a few trick! colin can:
she us his teeth
show me how old he is
shoe me his muscles
show me his freckle
wiggle his toes (right now it is only his left foot but we are working on the right...i have no idea why he started doing it but he thinks it is funny)

do kung fu panda kicks


he can also point to his:

dancing (i have no idea where he gets most of his moves!)
love to help himself to snacks
