**Disclaimer: I totally started this mid-September and then forgot to finish it! As of last Wednesday my class is finished and now I can focus on sewing a sparkly blue snow princess dress for a certain little three year old I love- what was I thinking?!**
I have neglected to keep our few followers up to date on the kiddos' growth in the last couple months. I feel like I put out a post like this every month, asking for forgiveness for my lack of energy and attention to the blog! School is back in session, I'm taking a graduate credit course to renew my teaching license, and life is just overall crazy like any other day. As I'm looking into beginning studies toward a master's degree in education or literacy, this one class has me a little frightened for the work it will entail and how I will balance family, work, and continuing my education. But, I guess we'll take it one step at a time, right?
Look at our little Doodle Bug!
I cannot tell you how much he amazes us everyday. With Cailyn we were
always waiting for the next milestone, we only had one kiddo to pay
attention to. With Colby, I feel like he reaches milestones and it's unreal. I think to myself, "When did you learn to
do that?"

Like, climbing into the Cozy Coupe and pretending to drive! |
|
And drinking from a cup- which he apparently taught himself to do whilst taking a bath...ew. (Don't get any crazy ideas- he basically choked himself doing it, still some refining to happen in that process) |
|
Arrrr, babies! |
|
We are definitely in that "NAKED!!" stage. You know, the one that lasts until like, forever with boys. |
|
I realize this one's a tub picture so she's supposed to be naked, but I often feel like his big sister will fall under the "NAKED!!" category forever as she was just running around in her birthday suit this morning shaking her bare butt in everyone's faces and singing about poop. She's classy like that. |
|
But look how beautiful she is, too. It only took seven different walks and about 50 requests for her to smell the flowers before we got this picture, but I'll take it! |

|
Just chillin', watching some Red Zone with Daddy. |
|
I imagine his thoughts went something like, "What the hell, mom?! Just wait until I throw all your tampons in the toilet, then we'll see how cute you think I am..." |
|
...but seriously, he is so cute! |
|
This would be one of his favorite places to hang out, watching from the full glass storm door- and trying to shut himself between the doors. (Also, full disclosure, I totally mistyped shut as sh*t at first and I'm still laughing at myself- I mistyped it the second time, too, hee hee!) |
|
Poor kid, he hated those wings- but the picture had to be attempted. Success! |
|
Favorite place to sit, bonus points if he gets Cailyn to pull him around like it's a wagon. |
Stay tuned for another post soon, October 6th is Colby's first birthday! I will try not to disappoint and have a post up by tomorrow night with all of his monthly photos so far.
