We Have Teeth!

We made a big discovery back on June 16...Colt's bottom two teeth broke through! It took a while for us to be able to snap some photos of them since we really only see them when he cries, which isn't very often! He's been doing really well and they don't seem to be bothering him, which we're very thankful for...he just loves gnawing on his hands now!

7 Months Old

Hard to believe it's been 7 months since we brought Colton home from the hospital. Back then he was just a little over 5 pounds and 19 1/2 inches, now he's tipping the scales at 19 pounds, 4 ounces and is 27 1/2 inches long! He is loving school and his teachers tell us all the time how much they love him and what a lady killer he's going to be when he grows up with those big blue eyes! Colt has also advanced to his next level of transportation...the combat crawl! He can really get moving on his tummy now, can't wait to see what he does next. He's trying all sorts of new veggies...sweet potatoes went over pretty well, but carrots were another story!

Exciting New Things!

The last few weeks have brought a few new and exciting things for Colton. Along with enjoying rice cereal or oatmeal for breakfast and dinner, Colt has started eating fruit. His favorite by far are the peaches! Soon he'll be trying out veggies for the first time...hopefully that goes as smoothly as all the other food introductions have gone! We are eagerly waiting for Colton to start crawling, he's getting there, but his current mode of transportation is rolling. He literally roles everywhere! And although he can't quite pull himself up to the sitting position yet, if put there he can sit for quite a while. As you can see from the pictures below, he's very proud of himself!
