Tricks

This stage is amazing. It seems like Colby is learning new tricks daily...or close to it! This is his latest.
We are in trouble now! Not only is he a speedy little crawler, but today he decided to start pulling himself to a standing position. I'm sure its only a matter of weeks before he takes off on his own.

Little man is nine months old now. At his 'well child' check-up last week he was measuring in at 18 lbs. 4 oz. and 27.5". He's growing like a weed! While he seems like a chubby little buddha baby to us, he's actually only in the 15th to 20th percentile nation-wide. Colby loves to eat! What a nice change from K-man. He'll eat any of the baby foods that we feed him (although we've found he doesn't love peaches oddly enough) and loves it when we share bits of our food with him too. I never knew how exciting it could be to have a child who like food!

Changing the subject back to tricks. Kyle couldn't be outdone. He wanted to show off one of his tricks too...Something to make a parent proud. ;) Our child can officially fit bouncy balls that are bigger than his fist into his mouth. (And he seems to do it way more often than the average joe. Odd...)

'Stupid human tricks' aside, Kyle is a joy. He is currently obsessed with anything and everything electronic. (I know, surprise surprise.) He would play the xbox or Wii all day if we let him. (Unfortunately he is also in a bit of a mischievous, whiny phase, so those are the first privledges to get taken away.) He also loves playing soccer in the front room with Dad. Kyle goes to preschool three days a week and LOVES it. Every morning when he wakes up he asks if it is a school day. K-man is a great big brother (for the most part!) and loves Colby more than anything. He is always the first one to try and make him laugh and smile if Colby is sad.

I am so thankful for my boys and the entertaining 'tricks' I get to see each day!
