July 26 - August 1, 2009

As each week passes I start to get sadder knowing that I have to return to work on August 12th. I've cherished each and every moment (even the minimal crying ones) with this sweet little guy! Eric and I continue to count our blessings with what an awesome kid he is! He is talking like crazy and today he started to stick out his tongue for hours at a time! Colton smiles all the time but for some reason when we try to take a picture, he gets fascinated by the orange light that goes off just before the picture is taken and the smile disappears. I'll keep trying to get more pictures of his gorgeous smile. Enjoy!

Big blue eyes!

Sweating like crazy at Daddy's softball game. It's 10 pm and still over 100 degrees!

Trying rice cereal for the first time in the high chair....mad as heck!

Still upset. I think we'll keep with the cereal in his bottle with the formula for the time being.
