Uncle TJ

So Colby's little brother TJ has been scared of Corbin ever since he was born. We would ask him if he wanted to hold Corbin when he was little and he would always say no or make up some excuse. My favorite excuse was "No me have homework." Even we were over visiting he would leave to go hang out at the neighbors or he would just stay downstairs, which isn't too weird for TJ, but he still didn't like to be around Corbin. Well we finally had a breakthrough! TJ held Corbin with a smile on his face! I think that as Corbin gets older TJ will realize that Corbin isn't so bad and will like playing with him more. Corbin has figured out TJ is a pretty cool guy! TJ we love you!

Happy Halloween!

Corbin was a lion for Halloween. He was so cute! We didn't even attempt trick or treating but somehow he ended up with a bucket full of candy thanks to Grandma Julie! He can't seem to get enough suckers. We stopped by to see our friends, Lori and Rory, and their kids. Eli was a penguin and Kaemon was a frog. They were so cute together! I can't wait for next year!

Mmm...Lemons

This is too funny not to post. Grandma Sherry thought it would be fun to give Corbin a lemon. Well he loved it! He would suck on it then he would pull a funny face, but then suck on it again! He is so silly!

San Diego

We went to San Diego two weeks ago with Colby's family and it was so much fun! We wore Corbin out! We flew there and he was so good on the plane! He slept half the time and loved the cookies that the flight attendents gave him.

While we were in San Diego we did everything! We went to Seaworld, the beach, and San Diego Zoo. Plus we went shopping and Colby got in a couple of rounds of golf! Corbin liked seeing the Shamu show. He would make noises when Shamu would jump out of the water. We fed the sea lions and he was scared of them at first because the were barking so loud and were pretty close to us, but once he realized that they couldn't get him he was fine and starting barking back at them. They were so funny! The San Diego zoo is so big. I love it! Corbin liked looking at the animals, but by the time we got the big animals he had fallen asleep. It will be fun to take him back when we can really appreciate it. Here are some pictures of our fun vacation...












And on a side note, Corbin is now walking and has been since San Diego!

Blogging with pictures is so much better...

So Colby's Mom was getting disappointed with the lack of pictures of Corbin and so she decided to give me an early Birthday present and gave me a new camera! Yeah! (Thanks Mom!) I think that posts are so much more fun with pictures, after all a picture speaks a thousand words! Here is a post using pictures like Sherry requested.

Corbin is so good at feeding himself!

Corbin: "Look Mom I ate all my dinner!"
Nisa: "Oh you even ate your green beans! Good job!"

Wait a mintue.....

"What's this? Green Beans on the floor!?" Corbin has started this new thing when he eats, when he is finished with his food or doesn't like it he throws it on the floor! Even when his sippy cups are empty he throws it on the floor! What a stink! Now is the time I wish we had a dog!

I got tagged a while ago but have been dragging my feet because I am not a fan of tags, chain emails, etc. Anyway I finally decided to do it so here goes...

1. I get ready for bed in the same order every night... take out my contacts, wash my face, and brush my teeth.

2. I love rainy days, but I especailly love rainy days where I can make soup and stay in my pjs all day long.
umm...does that count as a quirk? Moving on...

3. I listen to certain cds dependin on what I'm doing and what time of year it is. For example I only listen to A Walk to Remember soundtrack in the fall, the Dawson's Creek cd when I'm drving in the mountains. Weird I know.

4. I shower in the same order every time...Shampoo my hair, wash my face, wash my body, and then condition my hair.

5. I am obessed with stupid TV shows and insist on watching every week they are new episodes.

and finally my last one is the same as Laura-Ann's
6. I am obsessed with blogging and have to check it every morning and night! Plus I check my email too.

All right that wasn't so bad! I tag Lori, Andrea, Sherry, Amy, Laurie, and Kathleen.

Walking and Talking

A few moments ago I discovered that Corbin is growing up way too fast! He has been taking steps here and there and then he will fall after a couple of steps. He also has been the biggest jibber jabber with the occasionally "mama" and "dada" but for the most part not really making any sense. Well tonight he suprised me when I was sitting on the couch and I told him go get your ball which was by the love seat. To my suprise he turned and walked straight to the ball bent over and picked it up and said, "ball". I can't believe it he is going to be walking and talking all over the place. SIGH It seems like yesterday I could just cuddle him and he would just lay there and snuggle back. Now that only happens when he is sleepy. He's growing way too fast!
