No Rush To Walk




13 Months
Colin is a little more than 13 months now. He took his first steps this New Year's, but he does not seem to be in any rush to walk around. He is becoming a master crawler and can move pretty fast! He has also become very inept at squatting to get something off the floor without falling on his bottom. He seems amazed by this ability to stand on his own though!
Everytime he does it the biggest smile appears on his face. I think he is going to take after me and be a talker! Man, he can talk! He is always talking about something...we do not know exactly what since it is still in his own baby language. He does like to say "da da" a lot! "Ma Ma" comes out when he is crying, which I have to admit makes me feel good :) He loves to eat! He mostly is eating what we eat for meals. He can be picky some nights, but bananas always work!!! The picture that I included is a recent discovery of his.  He stays like that and either organizes his goldfish (crackers) around him or eats them off the ground! We thought it was pretty cute, even though I would like it if the crackers stayed in the bowl for once and not end up on the carpet.
We recently put in his new car seat, so now he is facing forward. He seems really excited about that. I am hoping that it makes my morning drives to daycare a little quieter. Mom and dad - you were spoiled that we fell asleep so easily in the car!!
His morning routine is to drink some soymilk while watching one of his favorite cartoons, which allows mommy time to get ready. Right now his favorite shows are Winnie-the-Pooh, Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, Handy Manny, The Backyardigans and Imagination Movers. It is cute to watch him laugh when Winnie does something silly. He even watched an episode that scared him. That was so sad to see and we definitely do not watch that episode anymore. :(
