We spent all last weekend up at the lake and it was great. It was so relaxing. The weather was perfect. And becuase the lake is so shallow (way down due to the lack of water the past few years), the water is nice and warm. Actually maybe a little too warm in some spots! Colton loves being at the lake. Although once he is walking it will be much better. He is still crawling everywhere and let me tell you he is quite dirty by the end of the day! We are planning on going to the lake again this weekend, and this time Frankie got off work so he can go too! We bought Colton his own life jacket and we are planning on getting him in the boat for the first time! I hope he likes it.
In other news, Colton goes to the doctor today for his one year check-up. So we will find out what he weighs and how tall he is! I am sure he is about off the charts by now. He also has a very red and swollen eye ( I think it is Pink Eye) so we will be getting that checked out. We plan on taking him to see Fire Works tomorrow, as long as he is feeling good after his vaccinations and his eye is better! We are still waiting for him to take his first steps on his own. He walks along the furniture like it is no big deal but he just won't let go! We are also hoping to take away bottles soon, but it is not easy. We are only using them for naps and bedtime, but that is going to have to stop and I am not sure if he will ever sleep again! Okay well I have to get going, I have to feed him lunch and then we are off to the doctor. I will update about the doctor visit later this week.
UPDATE: Well we just got back from the doctor and he was very good. He weighs 26 pounds and 12 ounces and he is 32" tall; which puts him the 90th percentile for both. He got 3 shots and he did very good, he cried of course but that is to be expected. He also had to get his finger pricked to they could check his blood. He didn't seem to mind that too bad which surprised me. And the doctor confirmed my guess.. he has Pink Eye! So we have drops to put in his eyes every 3 hours for the next week. Other than that he is as healthy as we could have hoped for!
The Lake looks like so much fun for you guys! Isaac and I are pretty jealous of Colton's tan we both would look like albinos next to him, hopefully Isaac will have the ability to tan when he gets older. Have a wonderful 4th of July at the lake! Sorry to hear about the pink eye, that's no fun.
