Professional Pictures

Corbin got pictures taken last week at JC Penny and they allow you to pay a few dollars to have them e-mailed so that you can share them electronically (that's what it said). We just got them today so here they are...

Doesn't he look older than 10 months? More like a toddler than a baby!

He just wanted to throw the ball, so the girl had to take the picture quick!

Showing off the clap

I love how you can see his teeth in this one

This is the one we got for the wall - Grandpa and I just couldn't resist his smile in this one

That's enough of the hat!

Another one where he looks more like a toddler

Acting shy

"What?"

Buckets of Fun

Corbin loves to play in water! We have to constantly watch him at Grammie and Grandpa's because he likes to find the dog's water dish and play in that. One day last week when it was warm, I took him outside with a bucket of water and let him go at it.

Reaching... trying not to touch the grass too much...

Yeah! Now I can splash!

Dumping it out

This look cracks me up! He just looks so silly!

More Fun Times Outside!

'Wow Daddy, you need to cut this grass!"

Playing Outside

Checking out a dandelion

Pulling the head off the dandelion (he's such a boy, isn't he?!)

Sporting the shades...

Only for a moment though

Cruising around the driveway


We're starting him early playing bocce ball

Bath Tub Fun

Corbin loves getting a bath. Well, I suppose it's not the bath itself as the toys and the water in the tub that's so much fun!

10 Months Old

Yet another month has passed, bringing us that much closer to 1 year old. I cannot believe he has now been out in this world longer than he was in my belly! That is crazy! As always, he continues to be more fun than ever! He still loves to smile and laugh but now he has also learned to growl (thanks to Grandpa!). He has 2 teeth on the bottom and yesterday he just started clapping! It is now he favorite thing to do! If music is playing, someone else is clapping, or he is just happy he starts clapping. He continues to get better and better at standing on his own and he has started taking steps on his own if he is holding on to one of our hands. He also can crawl up the stairs very quickly (thanks to Dadda!). So as you can imagine our lives have become more busy as we follow Corbin around the house and up the stairs,

but it is so much fun at the same time! Clapping while the lion was singing "In the Jungle"

Sitting with the singing lion that distracted him long enough to sit still for pictures

Mother's Day

This year Mother's Day was very special! One reason is obvious, it was my first! It was also very cool because both of our moms (Corbin's Grandmas) came over and spent the entire day at our house. It was wonderful to have everyone together!

One of my Mother's Day cards (I got one from Cory, two from Corbin-with Dadda's help and Grammie's help, one from my parent's in-law, and one from my good friends Geneva & Jason - THANKS everyone!)

Some more pics from our visit at cousin Preston's house

I know that it has been way too long since I've put pictures on so I must apologize! Life is just getting busier and busier! :) These are just pictures from our visit at Seth & Melissa's the weekend after Preston was born.

Playing one of his favorite games with Dadda

We have season passes to Kings Island & Cedar Point so we went to Kings Island to get our pictures taken for the passes and decided to walk in for a little bit

With Jimmy Newtron (Corbin didn't like him very much)

On top of the replica Eiffel Tower (looks out over the park)

The shirt says it all!

Corbin's Cousin Preston Has Arrived!

Corbin meeting Preston this weekend! He was born on Tuesday (so he's one week today). He weighed in at a healthy 11 lb 4 oz! He is absolutely adorable and as you can tell Corbin was amazed by him!
