Random

Here is some random "catch-up" information.

We were able to take Corbin to the duck pond behind Lone Peak.  He loved the ducks...

Corbin kept yelling for the ducks... "Here ducky ducky ducky..."  
Amazingly, none came up to him.

We also were able to help watch our niece Sophie and Corbin's future wife, Sage...
The wedding is planned for 2032... Be Ready!!!

Aquarium

On Corbin's birthday, we took him to the Living Aquarium in Sandy.  


He had a really good time looking at all of the sea life. 



We were lucky to have my mom, Alex, and Brayden come with us to look at all of the animals. 


He wasn't much for the touching of the animals, but enjoyed looking.  It was hard to get a good picture because he was always looking away at the animals instead of at me. 


This picture is Corbin standing up to a life-sized image of an adult male penguin.

Happy Birthday Corbin

We had Corbin's family party on Sunday along with Easter. 
Corbin was thrilled to have his Nemo Cake.  I think the best part was that Nemo and Dori are toys that he got to keep. 

He was lucky enough to have Grandma Kathy in town to join the rest of my family.
Corbin was more than happy to open presents until he opened up the cars that were given to him.  After that, he just wanted to play so Brooklyn got to open the rest of his presents.
Here he is opening presents on his actual birthday, April 10.  
  He was so happy when his dad came in with his new bike.  We could barely get him off of it to change his clothes.
 Once he had changed, he got to ride his bike outside.  He loved every minute of it and cried when he had to come in.
I can't believe that my baby is two.  He has grown so much.  He is talking up a storm and is surprising us every day with the things he says or does.  He is learning the sounds that letters make and can count to 10 on a good day.  We love you Corbin!!!

Happy Easter

Before Corbin started on his Easter Morning egg hunt, he had to have a picture.  He looked at me and said "Cheese."

Here is Corbin after the egg hunt.  Jeremy made a trail of eggs that lead to his Easter Basket filled with "goodies" at the end of the trail.
Later that day, there was an Easter Egg Hunt for the little kids, and another for the big kids.  Because of the snow, the hunt for the little kids was upstairs at my parents' house and downstairs for the bigger kids.  We got to hide the eggs for them all.  We think all of the eggs were found....
All of the kids had a great time at Grandma and Grandpa's on Easter Sunday.

Snow Man

  We got one last good snow fall a few weeks ago, and Corbin has been dying to build a snow man.  So his dad took him out and they built this one together.  He just loves playing in the snow and is always wanting to make snow balls.  Sadly, the snow man died with in 2 days and Corbin was pretty sad.

Sick Boy...

A few weeks ago we noticed that Corbin was running a small fever.  Jeremy decided to take the next day off to be with Corbin since all of the kids at my work were also sick.  The next day, Jeremy noticed that Corbin was breathing so shallow.  He took him to the doctor to get checked out.  Last year Corbin got sick and was diagnosed as having asthmatic tendencies, so we've kept an eye out for this.  Sure enough, he was diagnosed with pneumonia and those darn asthmatic tendencies.  Part of his treatment was to have breathing treatments.  He didn't like them at all...

 We had to make sure that he got a treat after the treatments.  He loves popsicles.  It was about the only thing he would eat for a few days.
 
The treatments and the antibiotics did wonders for him.  It was crazy to see how much better he could breath after the treatments.  We've got to keep our eyes open and be ready for it again next year.
 
I knew that something was up when I came across this.  Corbin hasn't fallen asleep on his dad since he was about six months old.  I did like the fact that he was cuddly though...

February catch up

Time to catch up on another month gone by:


We had a nice Valentine's Day. We had some family babysit Corbin and we had a nice evening alone. 

On President's Day, we took advantage of Jeremy's day off to take Corbin to Cabelas.  He loved all of the fish and the animals.  I was surprised that we were able to get Jeremy out of the store without a single purchase. 


Some of the animals had Corbin a little nervous...



Corbin had been asking for a pillow for so long and was often found cuddling up against his bumper pad in the place of a pillow.  Jeremy and I decided that it would be okay to give him a pillow and he has loved it.  I was amazed that such a crazy moving sleeper would stay in place with just a little pillow.  I had to be a mean mom and get a picture of him with his pillow.
