Winter Wonderland

These are from before Christmas but Corbin loved it so much that we wanted to share the pics! As a kid, Daddy and Mommy came to this and we wanted Corbin to experience it. It was warm (since it was inside) and everything was geared for little ones, so Corbin enjoyed it a ton! Grandpa, Grammie, Jay, Kristin, and Joey joined us!




He loved standing at the fence since it was just his size

He kept reaching for Cory's hand and leading him all around

Joey checking things out (on the ceiling!)


Daddy thought space men at Christmas didn't make sense, but Corbin liked it!

Jaym, Kristin, and Joey




Joey couldn't help himself, he had to crawl into the display

Mommy, this was lots of fun. Do you have enough money in there for us to come again?

Spending more time in the snow

One of the days last week while Daddy was still off school, we went outside and played. Corbin had lots of fun, but didn't want to stay out long. He is definitely a summer time kid (in warm weather he would stay out all day if you let him, but in the winter he is ready to go in after 20-30 minutes).

Daddy ran around in circles and pulled Corbin (he LOVED it)

More sledding

Daddy helped Corbin make a snow"ball"

...but then he dropped it. He kept saying "ball" in a sad voice, so...

Daddy made him another ball, which he kept very safe

This was right before going in. As you can tell from Corbin's face, he was ready to warm up!

A Very Merry Christmas!

Christmas was a lot of fun this year! Corbin did great opening presents! He had a good time getting lots of new toys!


With the Honeywell side
Grammie & Grandpa got him an overnight bag and he loved the push light

Building a tower, just to knock it over. That is the best part after all!!!!

Uncle Eric and Aunt Marian got Corbin these foam blocks and Uncle Aaron and Aunt Diana got him a bulldozer, which works well to knock the blocks over!

Riding his rocking horse from Uncle Eric & Aunt Marian

Helping unwrap his big presents from on top

Thanks for the slide Grammie & Grandpa

it's so much fun!!!!

He loves to stick his fingers in the horses mouth as it talks

Helping daddy put together his wagon

We couldn't get him to wear his Santa hat for very long so this is one of the only pictures we have with it on

Beating Uncle Aaron up with his light saber (yes these were a gift that daddy picked out. You can guess why, I am sure!)
Opening Presents from Mommy & Daddy
Unwrapping more presents from mommy and daddy

One of his favorites from mommy and daddy was his Bob the Builder tool set (he has even taken the tools to bed with him!)

Playing with his barn animals

The power drill is very cool!

The safety googles were a lot like the santa hat... only on for a moment!

Corbin and Preston actually paid attention to each other and seemed to kind of play together

Pappa put this bow on his head

"Here Pappa, you can have this back. Bows are silly!"

Corbin was getting tired of opening his presents and decided to help Preston with his

Sit & Spin from Nana & Pappa

He looks exhausted, doesn't he?
