So I'm a little behind on Colton's updates... 16 months has passed us by and now our boy is 17 months old... Here is a glimpse into life with the C-man!
Voracious reader like his mommy and daddy! Colton insists on reading by himself on the couch and also insists on having ALL of his books nearby.
Where is Colton? All bundled up on a cold day. This picture happens to be in the kitchen. Colton loves sitting up on the kitchen counter while I'm cooking or doing anything in the kitchen.
Colton "sliding" to Daddy. Colton invented this game all by himself. He smashed a diaper box and started calling it a slide. I thought it was pretty ingenious!
Colton built this tower all by himself too. He's getting so big!
Here are a few other things to remember about this age:
- Can signal a touchdown with both hands in the air.
- Saying elmo (melmo), outSIDE, see (which we think means paci), more, eat, mama (now says this over and over until I do whatever he wants), lights, ball, car, truck and lots more I can't remember right now.
- Signing more, please, all done, no and eat. Working on thank you, yes and milk.
- Telling himself "Ready, set, go" and then takes off running across the house.
- Clapping for himself when he does a good job.
- Blowing kisses.
- Giving sweet kisses and hugs complete with sound effects! So cute! You have to be careful because a kiss can quickly turn dangerous with scratching and hair pulling.
We love this little boy so much! Thank you God for giving him to us to love and raise. Please guide us as we parent him.
Videos coming soon...
