WEEK 41

After months of worrying about Colby's vision, we finally had his appointment on Monday.  He passed with flying colors and nothing was wrong.. no lazy eye(s) or crossed eyes.  The doc said he will probably be near-sighted (like mommy) and have to wear glasses around middle school.  But, if that is all we have to worry about.  NO BIG DEAL.  We still have to go back in 6 months to make sure everything is still good.

This week was full of appointments.  On Friday, Colby had his 9 month appointment.  He only got the flu shot and a check up.  I thought he would be at least 21 lb.... No, he actually lost weight.  He weighed 20 lbs 4 ounces.  At 6 months, he was 20 lbs 8 ounces.  He eats like crazy, but I guess all the exercise was making him lose his cute baby fat (noooooo).  Bill and I had a million questions for the doctor.  She told us that he can eat eggs, waffles, pancakes and alot of similar food that we eat.  Later that night, Colby had his first taste of breakfast food.  He did not like the eggs at all.

Now that fall is here, Halloween is just around the corner.  We picked pumpkins and put up all our decorations.  For Colby's first Halloween, he will be a dragon while Bill and myself will be matching medieval maid and mercenary   I can't wait to take him trick or treating.  He got to show off his costume (which is way too big) this weekend.

 Here are some photos from this month:
