April 2013
Wow - time flies and you realize, I haven't updated that little ol' blog in awhile. I can't believe our sweet Cecilia is 3 years 8 months old and our sweet Colin is 7 months old. We adore these two and thank God daily for being so blessed. I'm missing 7 months of stories and a couple years of stories for Cecilia before Colin was born - but for now - here are 3 pictures from April - 3 of 300 of course - but these are 3 that are most recent. The single pictures of Cecilia and Colin are from Wednesday, April 10th and the Cherry Blossoms picture of all four of us - our first family picture at the Cherry Blossoms - was taken on Sunday, April 7th.

Colin Milestones, Statements and Stories
May 17, 2017: At dinner
Colin: My family makes my heart full.
January 15, 2017: This morning this was our conversation while watching Frozen (he has my heart):
Colin: She is all grown up now - one day I'm going to be all grown up.
Me: I know...don't do it too fast okay?
Colin: Okay.
**a few moments later**
Colin: You smell good, you smell like Rainbows.
Me: Thanks baby.
Colin: When I grow up, I'm going to marry you - okay?
Me: um...okay. I love you.
Colin: I love you too. (gives me a kiss on the cheek)
**he asks me to marry him on a daily basis and I know he means it in the most innocent and sweet way and one day he won't be asking me this anymore! LOVE him - even when he is like the Tasmanian Devil - he always finds a way to make up for it with a wink, a hug, or a kiss.**
January 12, 2017: Wow I have missed capturing a lot of Colinisms - my favorite is "I like ju neck-a-lace". Colin has a sweet heart, he always wants to pray at the table, he talks about God a lot, about family. He is VERY active - but very sensitive and loving. He likes to get up from the dinner table and give his Mommy a kiss and a hug...Daddy thinks it's because he doesn't want to eat anymore and I think he's just so sweet!
February 11, 2014: Poo poo on the potty!
Colin: My family makes my heart full.

July 21, 2013: First Steps! He's saying Mama, Dada, and goes sssss ssss - we think it's "CC". :)
May 14, 2013: Crawling! Sitting Up! End of April Colin had his first teeth - the bottom two, then he had the top two, and now he has the top four and more on their way.
April 10, 2013: Colin's Milestones:
Colin is now 7 months 2 weeks - for a couple of months he's been saying "Mama" "Dada" "NiNi" "NomNom" and he sounds like he says "Hi" =) Colin started rolling over in February so he was 5-5 1/2 months old. He's been teething for at least 2 months - no tooth yet. He started rice cereal at 4 months and fruits/veggies shortly after. He's now had "Mum-Mums" and water. He's tucking his knees under him, but not crawling yet and can sit up with assistance and will stand when holding his hands. He's smiled since the day he was born and adores his sister :)
March 8, 2012: Felt Colin's first kicks at 14 weeks :)
Cecilia Milestones, Statements and Stories
This isn't close to covering everything - but I've jotted these things down over the last few years and wanted to have a place to store them :) more to come!
January 2014: CC statements
Boy there is a very long list - but most recently she told me that she loved her Daddy best and when I reacted somewhat sad - she smiled and said, "It's okay Mommy, it's going to work out." I say that to Colin regularly when he's fussy. haha. The next night she only wanted to be with Mommy and Daddy was the 'bad guy' - but I do see the future of a Daddy's girl - no doubt :)
Fall 2013: Parent/Teacher conference:
CC is a leader. CC likes to read to the class (or imagine she is reading to the class). "CC is the real deal - what you see is what you get."
April 9, 2013: Story from Saint Joseph's Preschool:
Mike and I had a parent-teacher teleconference with Ms. Nicole of the Bears Class a few weeks ago - CC received alot of rave reviews, the one thing that stood out ot us was when Ms. Nicole said, "CC is a leader" - that she is! We were also told that CC has empathy, that when new kids join the class or a child is sad, she is concerned for them and takes care of them. :)

"Mommy, if you and Daddy don't go to bed, I'm going to have a big problem with the both of you."
