Clothes Optional (and Happy Birthday Grandpa!)

Boy have we had some fun adventures this week! We recently found out that Colin will have two weeks - no more, no less! - to switch to drinking from a regular cup once he moves from the infant area to the toddler area of his daycare. This switch usually happens at the 1 year mark. With only about 2 months to go, we're in cramming mode...we've started by replacing bottles with sippy cups. He seems to be getting the hang of it... But it's exhausting!

He's also advancing in other ways, like stealing my blackberry so he can send emails and texts. Here I think he's wishing his grandpa a happy birthday...and asking him to come visit and bring toys!!

Now that the weather is colder, Colin is wearing lots of cool fall clothes from his older cousin. Thanks, Logan!

Colin really likes to throw his head and body back (with major force) at random times, which doesn't always end well. Luckily his dad knew this one was coming...

Up high on the list with eating food and ripping kleenex, Colin loves to be naked! This time he got really sneaky after his bath...

This naked boy could not be confined to this chair! He snuck right down...

...went poking around different areas of his room... ...and when no one was looking, snuck right out through the hallway and into the living room where there was plenty of space to be a REALLY crazy naked boy!

Colin also had a lot of fun throwing (and eating) leaves for the first time!

While he was out there, he supervised Dad and Greg's major landscaping effort in the front yard.

Wow, that turned out great! Thanks again for your help, Uncle Greg!

Colin also got a haircut this weekend - we meant to make it short, but maybe not quite as short as it ended up!

Colin was not feeling so good part of the weekend (and now Mom is not feeling so good!), so he also spent some time relaxing on the couch with Dad...

Here are some videos of the fun we had with sickie - he woke up in the middle of the night with a very high fever (hence, the red cheeks), so we gave him some tylenol and let him play in our bed until he cooled off a little...
