HAPPY BIRTHDAY COLTON!

I can't believe my baby boy is 1.... it feels like it's been a year but part of it seems to have gone by really fast. He is on the go crawling 90 mph, pulling up on the furniture and putting everything in his mouth. We are 5 weeks in to swim lessons. He can float really well on his back, it amazes me. He is struggling with falling in face first and rolling onto his back but he is making progress. Today was the first lesson where he didn't cry the entire time, that was a huge relief. Here are some pictures from his smash cake session a few weeks ago and some of my favorites from his party this past weekend.

On the go!



Colton is a movin and a grovin! He no longer sits still and neither do I. I spend most of my time chasing after him and pulling stuff out of his mouth that he shouldn't be chewing on. He is fearless he likes to crawl to the edge of the couch/ chair/ bed and look down, then dive! Never a dull moment when he is around!



He also likes to "jump in his bed", this is how he is when he is ready to get out of bed, he starts jumping! Thankfully he hasn't figured out how to crawl out of his crib... yet!

Hanging out with his cousin Wilson at his grandparents house on a Sunday afternoon.

We decided to sign Colton up for swim lessons. We are almost finished with week 2 and I am so thankful that we are doing them. They aren't like normal swim lessons, they are infant swim survival classes. He gets dunked over and over and now is learning how to float on his back. He cries the entire time but in a few weeks it will all be over and out little boy will be a great floater. Here is a little video from part of his lesson.
