10 months
He is still crawling everywhere, pulling up on everything, and getting into everything he can. He has had a bit of a "launguage explosion" and is now saying "mama" and "dada" appropriately, as well as copying pretty much every noise we make. This morning Steve left for work and I said "bye bye dada" Corben immediately put his chubby little hand up, started waving and said,"bu da da." So sweet
Pointing at anything and everything is a new favorite thing as well. He lifts up his little pointer finger and lets you know what he is interested in. The other day at the grocery store, he pointed at ice cream and Mountain Dew. As if he has ever had either of those two things!
Without further ado..... his chair picture :)

Santa!
There are lots of new things around the house for Corben to explore. He is so good at listening to "no" and "don't touch" so the Christmas tree has not been bothered. He is crawling everywhere, pulling up on everything, babbling all day long. It is a fun stage we are in. He is getting quite the silly personality!

Catching up!
____________________________________________________________________
ASU, ASU, ASU!!!
This past Saturday, Corben got to experience his first ASU tailgate and game. It was an afternoon game, so by the time we got settled at the tailgate, it was time for Corben’s nap. He slept for 2 hours like this….
Here are a few more pictures from the day.
ASU won, by the way!

Corben the Cow
For Corben's first Halloween, he dressed as a cow! He was the cutest little cow I have ever seen, that's for sure!
On Friday, we got to go to Steve's work for the firm's family halloween party. Corben had fun crawling around and was the hit of the party.
Then on the actual Halloween day, Corben had his first day at the Little Gym. He had a great time in his class with the songs, exercises, exploring, and climbling.
Then that night, we took the dogs and our cow and went for a long walk around the neighborhood. After the barn door shut for the night and our little cow was fast asleep, Steve and I sat outside, enjoyed the cool night, and handed out candy.

WALKING!!! EEK!
Last but not least, we have our ALMOST walking boy. He had been pulling up on this walker for awhile now, but has now figured out that he can push it and walk. For now, I keep this upstairs because the tile downstairs may be a little too slick for him to be pushing this on.....Yikes, he's going to be running around this house before we know it!

Disneyland
With that said, we did have a great time! My girls from dance performed in California Adventure on Sunday morning so, we had the entire rest of the day to just play.
Here are some photos from the trip :)
and now we stand
Just yesterday he pulled up on the couch all the way.... he was after a dog toy.
This is what we call the big cheeser. He only does it when he is very excited. He was so proud of himself to pull up in the play pen. Then he started almost jumping up and down. This boy is going to be on the move any day now!

Here is his chair picture:
Check out those teeth :) This is a good picture to show his always smily and silly personality!
I dropped him off at the church nursery yesterday for the first time while I attended the first day of my fall women's bible study. I was a nervous wreck, as the only people that have ever watched him are my parents and two of my good friends. So to leave him with people I didn't know well and with a bunch of other kids, it was kinda freaky. Of course, he did awesome and was a good boy. When I picked him up, I saw him being rocked by a grandma type lady :) He was sound asleep.
But when they brought him to me, and he was being held by someone much shorter than me (or Steve), I really got a perspective on how big this baby boy is. He really is huge! I see everyday that I dress him that I am putting size 12/18 clothes on him (meaning he is the size of an average 12/18 month old) but it wasn't until seeing someone else hold him that I really could SEE how big he truly is! Haha love my little linebacker!

Never Leaving Again
Tuesday, August 30, 2011
It's been awhile
Here he is with Grandma
And playing with Grandpa!
So what is new in our tall man's life? Well he is still working on crawling. He rocks back and forth on his hands and knees and is starting to shift his legs forward. Then he will flop down on his belly and start again because he has not figured out his arms yet.
And this is her husband, Steve, trying to figure out how possible "multi-tasking" is with a baby! hahahaha
Oh.....Corben goes back at the the end of September for a cardiac followup. I am sure hoping to be blogging again before then, but just to update you on where we are with that :)
