Making Up For Lost Time...part III




November


Colin turned a year old on November 21st!!! I know it is such a cliche' thing to say, but it goes by so fast! It has been an amazing year! Will and I have enjoyed being parents so much! It is such a crazy thought that I am in the position of helping a living thing - grow. Although, I think that Colin has helped me tremendously in the growing department.

We had a little family party for him. His cousins (Aidan, Alexei, Ryan and Brady) came, along with Aunt Wendy, & Uncle Eric, Aunt Ann & Uncle Jamie and Grandma Liz. The kids got to help Colin open his gifts and try them out with him, while the adults played Wii Golf.


Colin had his first cupcake! He was timid at first and I thought for a moment that he would make it through the cupcake without a mess. Of course, Colin did not fail to disappoint and he had orange frosting all over his face and hair by the end of it.
We also celebrated Thanksgiving this month. This one was a lot more relaxing then last year, since we celebrated it last year in a hospital bed recovering from having Colin the evening before. Will's mom and brother, Michael made us a wonderful meal this year and we spent it at their house. Colin had a wonderful time playing on Grandma's piano and eating the same food as the adults!!
