My Little Family: Down to One Nap.

I'm pretty sure Colin has dropped one of his naps. He used to wake up at 7 and have a nice long morning and afternoon nap. Lately he's been staying up until 12pm or 1pm before going down for a nap. It tends to be longer though, from 2-3 hours, so that's nice. :-) Then he's up until bedtime at 7. I don't mind it at all as long as he's not cranky. Last night we had a rough night and he woke up at 7am, but he's still up running around and playing right now (it's 12:30pm.) I'm going to put him down right after I finish writing this.

The other day Colin only took about a 30 minute nap, so at dinner time he started to fall asleep while eating. I couldn't believe how tired he was! But he still kept trying to eat his dinner even though his eyes were shut. :-) I'll post the video below.

Colin has been saying "Mama" a lot more lately. He still mostly says it when he's sad or upset. Of course Daddy and Dada are his preferred words! I love it when Kevin comes home from work because Colin gets so excited. As soon as he hears the door he gets up and walks over to see who it is and when he sees daddy, he makes all kinds of cute noises. Then Kevin and Colin play and it makes Colin very happy.

Kevin and I are going to take Colin to get his hair cut this weekend. I think it's about time. He did get complemented on his curls yesterday at the mall play area. The back is so long it curls around his ears!

I started using baby toothpaste. Colin likes getting his teeth brushed much better now. He used to pull away and try to force his mouth shut, but now he actually smiles and enjoys the flavor! I don't know how clean I actually get his teeth though... But it's better than nothing!

Colin has a wonderful relationship with his Gamma (my mom.) It's so sweet to see how excited he becomes when she comes over. I have a video of it that I need to edit and post. It's super cute.

Now for pictures!
