About Me

After 7 years of dating I finally married my high school sweetheart in Oct of 2009. I had always dreamed of marrying him and starting a family. On February 16, 2011 that dream came true when we welcomed our beautiful baby boy, Colin James, into our lives. I look forward to sharing our joy with you!

12 Month Check Up and The Aquarium

Friday we had Colin's 12 month check up.  It went really well and the Dr said that he is doing great.  His walking is right on track.  He is 25 lbs 14 oz and 31 in tall.  75-90 percentile for both. We mentioned that he hasn't been saying Dada as much anymore and the Dr said that it is normal for babies to forget about some milestones as they hit another big milestone.  So when he started walking, he kinda forgot about Dada for a while.  He just started saying it again yesterday though.  :-)  He had 3 shots, including the MMR.  I've heard that a lot of babies have bad reactions to it and end up being very cranky the rest of the day and sometimes get a fever.  Colin wasn't affected at all!  He was happy and in a great mood the rest of the day.  He did have a little bit of redness where the needle was, but it didn't seem to bother him.  I can't believe his next Dr appointment will be when he's 15 months old!!  Eeek!
