Here and Now

I have a lot of catch up to do, but I guess I have to start somewhere...and there is no better place than right now.

So, Colston has had multiple experiences with broccoli and carrots (I want to train those tastebuds to like veggies), which I will post later, but Sunday was an especially good day for him--time to experience sugar for the first time--he got to eat watermelon with us!

 Here's Cole gearing up for the party...

...and the reaction to this new flavor and texture...

...and his post watermelon demeanor--I think he liked it!

I wish you could have seen him between first taste and post experience; he was sucking on that piece of fruit like it was his last meal--and he was going to experience every last drop--so fun to watch.

Mr. Man

So little Colston is growing, growing. We dressed him up in (most of) his nice clothes...

I actually got ready too--and it wasn't even a Sunday!!

  

He has a mouth like mom and dad.

Look, something new to chew!

This is one healthy boy--we love to kiss those cheeks!

I just think this is cute--in the last week he has started sucking his thumb every once in a while--but here it looks like he is just pulling a "look at me, I'm standing" face.

Daddy came home from work early; we went for a walk, and the boy got sleepy

Special mention of my cute friends who provided the clothes:
