To add a couple more things and some photos to Chuck’s presidential blog below…
When Colin and I go out he pretty much never stops talking. He came with me to my OB appt a couple weeks ago and was asking questions the whole time “Mommy, what doing? Blood pressure? Now what doing? Getting weighted? Where Doctor? Are we done yet? Mommy, done? Mommy, get up on table? What that mommy? heartbeat? Mommy get off table? Mommy done yet? Where doctor? We pay? Done yet?….” You get the idea I am sure. He sometimes will say hi to the baby in my tummy and give it kisses - very cute:
As you can see I am getting bigger and bigger by the day - almost 7 months along now, so not much longer before we don’t get to sleep anymore. Overall I am feeling pretty good though.
Colin is looking forward to Christmas, or at least I think he is. When we got presents from his grandparents delivered the other day, I debated putting them under the tree because I didn’t know if he would leave them. He was pretty good, but every 15 minutes he kept asking me “Mommy, open presents yet?” I tried to explain that Christmas was still 10 days away - but 2 year olds don’t have a great sense of time
Then he tried to take a bow off and I told him “If you touch the presents, I will take them away until Christmas” - he stepped back immediately and as soon as Chuck got home he said “Daddy, no touch presents…mommy, take away”
I attached a couple other pics - one is Colin and his friend Sierra. The other two are from when I had a couple of kids over to decorate Christmas cookies. Colin’s ended up being a plate with about an inch of sprinkles on it and the cookies somewhere buried underneath. We had a good time though.
