Colin Bennett: 52 weeks

On May 28th, Colin turned 52 weeks old. Just one short day away from his first birthday. Hard to believe that I've been doing these posts for so many weeks and that this is my last one. Not to worry, I'm going to continue to do monthly update posts of "Baby C". I love that this blog has given me the ability to document, in detail, the events of his first year.

Weight: Officially 21.4 pounds. Our scale was clearly wrong last week!

Social: We spent our memorial day weekend enjoying the beginning of summer. We went to the pool, had a BBQ with Gram, Granddad, Mommy Kim and Daddy Dave and went for a walk at Valley Forge State Park. We also had his 1 year photo-shoot followed by lunch outside at Mommy's college!  

Sleep: Our good little sleeper sleeps through the night, every night. We have recently pushed up his bedtime from 7:30 to 7. He was getting way to cranky pants in the evening and gave us the signal that bedtime needs to be earlier.

Diet: The biggest change has been the incorporation of milk. C's diet still consists of lots of fruits, veggies and whole grains with lean protein. 

Clothes: 12-18 month outfits and size 4 diapers! Nothing like a change the last week of your first year! 

Baby Gear Love: Books, Books and more Books. We also love our sippy cups, stroller and bathing suits! C went swimming twice this week.

Crying: When he's sleepy and ready for bed he gets fussy

Likes: Exploring! He checks everything out. C also LOVES to listen to music, make music and has started dancing.  He also LOVES the water- he is a fish!

Dislikes: "Oh you told me no no? Watch me cry".

Postpartum: No answering this any longer is making me happy

Milestones:

Went to the outdoor pool and played in the wave pool! C loved it! He also started to spend time in the toddler room at school.

C's hair is also growing so long! Not that this is a milestone perse but I love the long wavy curls he is getting! Our guy is so handsome!
