Sand Table

We had a very busy day today. We attempted church (Corbin didn't want to stay in the childcare, so we left), we went to the zoo & played in the yard.

Jon set up the sand table for him today. Apparently, sand tables are a very serious matter to a 16 month old. He was so intense!

I tried to take video, but it was helplessly boring, since he wouldn't acknowledge the camera. So, still shots it is!

After a half an hour, we were able to get him to sort of look up

We also set up his new toddler bench!

Mommy-Son Days

Jon has been in Virginia for the past few days, and Corbin & I had the place to ourselves! Thankfully, the weather has been gorgeous, so we were able to enjoy some outdoor time.

Yesterday, on St. Patty's Day, we went to the zoo. His shirt says, "I'm not Irish, but kiss me anyway."

We saw some flamingos right away. Corbin loved them, especially because they are so close to the fence.

His favorite part is always the aquarium. Here's a baby manatee eating some cabbage

Today, we hit the trail & went to one of the parks. I just let Corbin run around, because the equipment was designed for older kids. He loved watching the geese & running around in the field

He found a stick that he insisted was a great toy. Of course, that made me nervous, so I had to do the whole bait and switch with a sippy cup

He learned a new word. Geese!

After nap, we went out in the backyard. He was determined to pick both balls up

Hey Mom! I could use some help here!

Lady, I said I need assistance!

Teething- the Finale

Corbin is teething in a bad way. I'm very happy to say that we are almost done (for a while) Tooth #15 and #16 are on their way through right now. Those are the lower canine teeth for Mr. Fussybutt. We have all of our molars, and 2 of them are now fully erupted. The other 2 just look like little razorblades. It's incredible how fast these buggers come through. Just the other day, I swear his bottom left molar popped through fully in 24-48 hours. That hurts!! I'm so glad we are almost done until we get those 2 year molars. I need a break from the running faucet mouth.

Here's the little guy just hanging out (upside down) in the playroom.

...and here's a shot that shows off his mouthful. It was taken about a week ago, so it's already a little outdated!
