16 months!

(2 posts!)
Colin Matthew is 16 months old now. He is a ball of energy. The above picture embodies Colin's personality! He is full of joy and excitement all the time. He talks and laughs. He says probably 25 plus words, no phrases yet. He runs around and plays non-stop! He loves his daddy. He is in a new stage where he likes to wrestle, if you are sitting on the ground, be prepared to get tackled! :) He is definitely full of mischief!


I love his sweet smiling face!


Colin loves to eat! He knows that food and drinks comes from the frig. If he is hungry or wants to eat or drink something, he says "cookie." That means I want food or drink. It is pretty cute. :)


Colin has a sweet tooth and loves desert, especially ice cream. He was enjoying a milkshake with Pops!


Colin has already gotten to his independent stage and doesn't want help from mommy or anyone for that matter. So example A, feeding himself applesauce with a spoon.



This is the end product after eating a nutra-grain bar.


Enjoying popsicles after swimming.




Colin decided one night that he wanted to play in this duffle bag.


He was telling me "bye-bye!"



He got really upset when daddy put him down.



"Daddy I love your shoes!"




Happy Birthday, Paw Paw Terry!





It's HOT!


Since it has been so hot around here, we are staying in the water as much as possible! This week Colin decided that he could swim my himself with his floaties, he is such a big boy! :)






Colin likes to talk through the noodle, he think it is so funny.









We went one day this week to swim with Jill and Jackson. Colin and Jackson play great together, they are 4 months apart. We swam and chased the boys around!



Enjoying some graham crackers!


Colin and Jackson up to no good!




We have also enjoyed running in the sprinkler with Jo Jo and playing the whale pool at Mama Dee and Pop's house! Colin would run around the sprinkler and laugh, he thought he was doing it right. Jo Jo (Shauna) and I would run through and Colin would laugh and run around. It was hysterical!








Playing in the whale pool and drinking water from his shovel.



Colin liked the water hose, while we were filling the pool up.




Colin enjoying playing at the pool with Mama Dee and Aunt Donna, while mommy and daddy went to a movie.


Blowing bubbles with Mama Dee, Colin has no fear and loves to put his face in the water.
