Smiles

Colin is starting to smile more now, especially when he talks to his mommy and daddy. He is starting to smile in response to talking, laughing, when reading to him, and when he hasn't been with one of us in awhile.

The other night while daddy was away, Colin and I were reading a book together and the whole time, Colin was just staring at me as I read. Every once in awhile he had a big smile on his face. It was one of those moments that completely melt my heart. It's amazing how one smile from your child can light up your world...

In a thumb sucking update: Colin will occassionally get his thumb in his mouth and suck once or twice, but hasn't quite gotten the hang of it yet. It's still funny to watch as he works on his coordination because sometimes he will hit himself in the forehead, his nose, either side of his mouth, but never really make it to his mouth. Hopefully we'll catch it when he does get the hang of it...and then let's hope it doesn't become much of an addiction!
