Corbin is 4 months old!

Life has been wonderful and busy since this little guy joined our family! Corbin is a delight! He is growing so fast! He is now four months old, 15 pounds, and cooing and laughing a lot! He is so much fun! He is a flexible, happy baby. He still likes to eat every 3-4 hours. We are working on the sleeping all night thing, he still likes to eat around 2-3am, which is making me a tired mama but that is ok, I know it won't last forever.Right?!?! Just kidding.

We went on our first family vacation this summer. Corbin got to see where his big brothers were born and meet for the first time some of our sweet friends in CO.



 We went to a baseball game together as a family. Corbin was such a trooper as we didn't take the stroller in so he just got passed around between Brian and I. Also, big brother's Elmo hat came in handy to block the sun. Mama forgot the big rimmed blue hat at our friend's house.

Corbin also has had the pleasure of meeting more extended family, particularly his name sake, my grandfather.

Thomas John meets Thomas Corbin! Precious time!

This sweet baby boy truly is one of a kind and such a blessing from God! I thank God daily for allowing me to be his mommy!

Happy Birthday to our Big 5 year old!

I can't believe I have a 5 year old!! Where did 5 years go!?! I am one proud mama of this precious boy! He is smart, loving, curious, and creative! He is a wonderful big brother and such a precious child. We celebrated his birthday together with family and friends at our local recreation center.  He loves all things superhero, especially Batman so we had a Batman theme party. We rented the rock climbing wall and a classroom to use for the party. It was a blast and worked out really well! All the kids really seemed to enjoy rock climbing. I think it was a unique, fun activity.

I saw where another friend of mine interviews her son on his birthday each year and then blogs about it. I thought this was an excellent idea, so I am copying her. :)

So I asked JP a few questions and these are his responses:

-Who is your favorite superhero?
I LOVE them all! 

-What is your favorite food?
Pepperoni pizza and pretzels

-What is your favorite TV show?
Super Hero Squad, Batman from 1970s, and Doc McStuffins

What is your favorite song?
On My Lips by Ross Parsley

What is your favorite resturant?
Chick Fil A

What is your favorite color?
orange first, then green

My favorite thing to do with mommy is go on a date.

My favorite thing to do with daddy is go on a date  


I loved all of his answers and loved that I knew the answers to all of these before he ever answered. I do love knowing my children so well. We do try to go on 1:1 dates as often as possible. Guess we need to schedule on really soon for him!

Happy Birthday, JP! We love you!!!
