Seeing as though it's been a month since we've been to Florida, maybe I should write and show pics on that. But first a few K/C updates.
Kayla is using the potty!!! Last weekend we 'ran out of diapers' and the first day didn't go to well. We had an accident at the park and no success on the potty, but the next day was better, and every day since then has been accident free. She even is insistent on not wearing diapers to bed and still no accidents! We're so proud of her. Don't be surprised if she gets signed up for preschool in the next month or two! She is still loving being a big sister to Colin and now that Colin is a super speedy crawler, they can really play and kinda chase each other.
Colin is turning into a little rough-houser, which is a lot of fun. He has also mastered climbing stairs, not the stairs going upstairs, but the single stairs in the loft. He is growing tired of baby food and would much rather just eat whatever we're eating: chicken nuggets, mac and cheese, pizza, pasta... The list goes on and on. He had a growth spurt about a week ago and I'm pretty sure there were a couple of meals where he ate more than me. He also prefers drinking water from a cup than a sippy cup. He had his 9 month check up and came in at 17lbs 7oz (5%) and 29in (79%). Still tall and skinny. His head is peanut size at 11%. He's not much of a talker like Kayla was at this age, but he's definitely a jibber jabber. He'll chatter your ear off but with no real words that mean anything. He makes up for it with his super crawling.
On the day we flew down to Florida, Kayla was getting over a really bad cold she had and then gave to Colin. Colin was feeling pretty miserable that day, so after a quick trip to the doctor to diagnose a double ear infection, he was surprisingly good for the airplane ride since he slept most of the way! The same cannot be said for the ride home. Luckily it only took him a day or two to feel back to his normal self.
First day at the beach. Kayla of course went straight for the noisy water while Colin stayed close to mama.
Mama and Dada went on an overnight backpacking trip in the Everglades. It was filled with beaches, alligators, mosquitos, and a rattlesnake! Kayla and Colin had fun staying with Grandma and Papa.
I swear the internet picks the worst timing to not work. More cute pictures coming soon!
