8 Months & Giveaway!

Happy 8 months, Colson!
Every month I feel like I just typed the month's previous post. I was never sad like this as Zach grew because I knew we would have more children (it was also exciting to see our firstborn experience and accomplish new things). As much as I love every new stage Colson reaches, it pains my heart as well!
Colson, you are so happy you wiggle with joy. You have almost fallen off the changing table while I'm standing beside you and you've also come close to jumping out of my arms a few times. You just can't contain your enthusiasm for life. ; )
You adore your big brother, and he is constantly giving you hugs. On your head. At least we have moved past the "poking your eye" phase...for now. ; )
You love to sit by Zach on the couch (wedged between pillows) and play with your toys. You love to watch people. You love attention and just want anyone to smile and talk to you. You love to be held, and I have learned to do a lot of things with one arm because you are in the other (which is getting difficult because you are so heavy!).
I think I have a heart breaker on my hands. How in the world am I going to keep the girls away (from Zach, too)? Ha!
I'm thinking another giveaway by Picky Sticky would be fun. I'll be sad when I don't have these monthly stickers to record Colson's growth.

Leave a comment to win a Gift Voucher for $15 on a set of Picky Stickys.

Don't forget to leave your email address if this is the best way for me to contact you.

I'll announce the winner Thursday night. Good luck!


I praise GOD for what He has promised. Yes, I praise the LORD for what He has promised.

Psalm 56:10

Raven said...

Oh, mygosh. Please, keep the pics coming of that little boy of yours! Love to mohawk, however not sure if it was intentional or just grows that way. =) My 3 year old has an intentional fauxhawk that many times, gets too long and turns into a full-blown mohawk :)

Have a good week!

awww, i would love to win the picky sticky giveaway. since we're having #2 and don't know if the baby is a boy or a girl, i feel like i haven't gotten much for him/her....this would definitely be something that i could get that would work for either gender (and if i don't win, i'll probably just buy them) ;0)
colson is a DOLL! he has such a light in his eyes - what a joy!
