Colby Turns 1!!!




Colby turned 1 yesterday and I can hardly believe it! This first year has gone by so quickly and he is really changing and is not so much a baby anymore. It is a little sad to realize those baby days are coming to an end, but it is cool to see his personality more and more each day.

He is walking all over the place now and is extremely active! I chase him around all day long and he never stops!!!! He does not like to sit in strollers, shopping carts, etc....always wants to be moving!! You would think I would be a little annoyed about this fact (which at times I guess I am) but I just love the fact that Colby is such an active little boy. I remember being a little nervous aobut having a boy and how I was going to keep up with him, etc....But, he just has so much fun and wants to do it all and it's really neat to watch him go.

He definately still has a very up and down personality. He will be extremely happy or extremely mad. He has been like this from day one. The happy moments definately make up for these extremes, though!!

This past year has been such a whirlwind -- Jeremy and I always joked after Maddy was born that parents had this little secret about what life is like with a baby and you don't find that out until you have one. Well.....I think parents might also have a 2nd little secret about what life is like when you add a 2nd child --- It was definately a huge transition for us and we seem to be playing catch-up a lot of the time, but it is so worth it!!! Maddy and Colby really love being around each other and I love watching them together!!!

It is very fun having a boy as well. Boys seem to have this little spark about them that just makes you appreciate life more and Colby has definately showed us that this year. We feel very blessed to have Colby in our lives and look forward to everything this next year has in store for him!!!!
