LOL.!


No seriously I'm laughing out loud now. Mommy has tried her best to get me on video laughing but I have become fascinated with the camera so every time she cuts it on I just stare at it. Daddy and mommy think I have the cutest laugh ever but aren't they supposed to? I've moved into my 3-6 month clothing which is great. I'm getting to wear new clothes and new socks. I've even sported a pair of shoes this week. Mom tried to clip my nails this week, she was so confident because she did this two weeks ago...incident free. Well today she got a tiny piece of my skin. It didn't hurt but she was very upset. I didn't cry but she almost did. She decided that one boo-boo was enough for the day so I have one hand of trimmed nails and the other not so much. Oh well I'm sure she will feel confident again soon and finish the other hand. Mom made dinner tonight and I actually feel asleep before she got done. I think mom and dad enjoyed having dinner without me fussing or having to be held. Maybe I should do this for them more often. Well it's getting late and I think mom and dad have a movie date tonight. So I better get some sleep so they can spend a little time together. Good night all.

I'm blogging


So I'm sitting here at the computer with not alot to say today. It's been a pretty boring day for me. I woke up and we had to run to Granny and Harold's so mom could do some paperwork. Then we came home and she did alot more paperwork. She put some cartoons on the tv and I loved looking at the colors while I was swinging. Then dad made lunch and they ate. Later on they took me to Granny and Harold's so they could go to the nursing home to see Maw Maw Marks. I usually go but the lady in the room with her is sick, so I got to stay with Granny. Now we are back home and I'm fighting sleep. I know once I give it up I will be asleep for awhile so I must fight it. I must fight it...I must ZZZZZzzzzzz....

My 1st Christmas

Apparently at Christmas time you don't have enough time to get on the computer every day. There is no way I can catch up with every little thing we did every day so I will just cover the important things. On the 19th of December we went to visit Mom's friend Brandi and her family. They just bought a new house and it was our first time going. Mom and dad got to eat some yummy food then we exchanged gifts. I gave the twins scarves and Life-size dolls. They loved them. Once they opened the packages they began changing the dolls clothes. Now I don't understand why they wanted to play with those dolls...must be a girl thing. The Bay's gave me a wooden ring stacker and a book. Mom read the book to me soon as we got home. We had a great time at the Bay's and we can't wait to go back.
The 20th of December we woke up and went to Church. I love church cause I get to sleep and mom holds me. After church we came home and had lunch. Mom and Dad spent the day getting ready for Christmas since it was only 5 days away. Then that afternoon we went back to church for the Christmas Play. I slept right through that too! Then after the play we went to the fellowship hall and I got to sit in Santa's lap for the first time. After church we went out to eat with Granny and Harold.
The 23 of December was a day mom will always remember because I slept from midnight to 5:30 in the morning. I don't see what the big deal is but it made her smile so it must be something great.
Christmas Eve mom woke up early to start cooking. My dad's side of the family was coming for brunch. Mom and Dad had mixed up some casseroles the night before so mom wouldn't have to do a whole lot in the morning. We had Ham and Cheese Casserole, Hashbrown casserole, bacon and muffins (aunt Shellie brought), apple cream cheese braid, and then all the sweets mom had made for Christmas. We had a full house. Aunt Shellie, Tyler, Devin, Aunt Kellie, Larry, Paw-Paw Tweedell and Becky and Grandmaw Tweedell were all here at our house. After brunch Aunt Shellie handed out gifts and then the fun began. Mom let Devin open my gifts since I can't really tear into them yet. Devin would open my present then show it to me. I really racked up. I got diapers, wipes, a huge ball, a cool outfit, a DVD and a bear, and lots of little teethers and 6 Dr. Suess books. Mom and Dad were lucky too they got a camcorder from Paw-Paw and Becky. I got a giraffe that is really a blanket and once I got that i snuggled up and went to sleep. After everyone left mom and dad made cookies and when I woke up we went to Mrs. Carrie Lee's house, but on the way there it started raining so I didn't get to get out of the car. When we left her house we went to Mr. Steve and Mrs. Patsy's house to take them some cookies too. I love to go to their house. Mrs. Patsy and Mr. Steve both have to hold me when we go; and boy do I love to be held. After we left there we made our way to Aunt Sharon and Uncle D's house. We were having Christmas dinner with them. Granny and Harold finally showed up and they ate dinner. They had BBQ and stew and lots of sides. After everyone was done we opened more gifts. I got more diapers, clothes, and lots of toys. Aunt Sharon even poked a hole in one of my gifts. When I got done we came home and unloaded the car. Mom got me ready for bed then we headed to Granny's house to spend the night. Since I'm so little and I probably won't remember this Christmas any way mom and dad spent the night at Granny and Harold's house. Santa knew I was gonna be there and he to see me over there. Granny was so sweet to mommy and daddy...she let them go to bed alone and I slept in my bed over there. When I woke up Granny took me to mommy and she fed me, then I slept with mommy and daddy. When I woke up at 6:30 Santa had been to see me. I can't believe I was asleep when he came. I was sure the sound of these deer that pulls his sleigh would have awoken me. I waited til 7:30 before I woke up daddy and Harold. Mom and Dad laid me on the couch then they opened my gifts. I hope they enjoyed it this year because next year I'm doing it myself! After I opened my gifts Granny started making breakfast and then soon after Aunt Sharon, Uncle D, and Robert came over. Santa came to see Robert too. We ate breakfast then we went home. Me and Daddy took a nap while mommy cleaned. Then when we woke up we went riding. Nothing was opened so we came home. Mom and Dad took me to Granny's for a while and they came home and ate dinner then they went and looked at Christmas lights. I guess this Christmas thing is pretty cool. I'm assuming it will get better once I can open gifts. Santa brought me all kinds of stuff. I got a Red Ryder BB Gun...yep and I'm only 2 1/2 months old, and I got books, teethers, rattles, and clothes! Santa was very good to me.
Ok now on to yesterday. We went to Me-Maw Tweedell's for a family dinner. I got to see lots of new people and I got to play with a baby that is near my age. He is 6 months old and I loved looking at him. I even laughed at him. Oh yeah I'm laughing now :) We had a great time visiting with family that we never get to see. Well that brings us to today. We are gonna hang around the house today and try to recover from the past week. Phew I'm tired now.
I hope everyone had a great Christmas and I hope you all remembered why we celebrate Christmas. It's not about getting gifts or Santa. It's about Baby Jesus, mom has been telling me all about him. I just hope everyone took the time to remember him. I will try to keep up with this blog thing now that the holidays are over with. :)

OH MOM...

What were you thinking????!!!! Seriously? Did you think they made Playgirl magazines for babies? Oh mom you sure did laugh making this picture and I'm sure you will laugh one day showing my girlfriends but I'm not laughing :( Ok now that I've expressed how I feel about this photo onto my blog now.
Thursday was like any other day...woke up played on the bed, smiled...made mommy and daddy smile, ate, napped. Mommy and Daddy kept telling me how proud they were of me. I didn't get sick after my shots, and now you would never even know I had shots this week. See what a new toy can do for you? We spend our nights around here now watching Christmas movies. Me and dad watched a Flintstones Christmas while mom got her bath, and then we all went to bed. Friday was a very very busy day. Mom and Dad got all dressed up and then they dressed me up and we went on a long car ride. I don't understand where we went but everyone was crying and I didn't like it. My mom and dad were both sad so I decided I would cry too. I don't know what was really going on but I do know I don't like these things and I hope we don't go to alot of them :(
Now it's Saturday morning and I had a great nights sleep and so did mommy and daddy. Mommy and I are planning on going to Granny and Harold's this morning so daddy can sleep in. I love playing at Granny and Harold's; there is always something to do over there. And everyone loves me so much! Ok that's all for now...oh man here comes mom she's gonna catch me.... :)

(Hi...this is Corbin's mom. Just thought I would let you know that Corbin attended his first funeral yesterday, Chris's cousin Jamie Blasingame died Dec. 4, 2009. He was a solider and an amazing person. He was married with a baby that is only 4 months older than Corbin. Chris and I have been to a few funerals since we have been together but this one was really hard on us both. It's tough seeing someone so young die and even harder when he has a son that will never know the amazing father he had. Since having Corbin thoughts cross my mind what if something happens to either me or Chris and I don't know what either one of us would do. We are very lucky parents to have a healthy baby and to have each other to depend on. Even though times seem tough right now we can still depend on each other. We are both very thankful for that. Our thoughts and prayers are with The Blasingame's and with Jamie's wife Rachael and their beautiful little boy Aiden. )

OUCH!!!!




OUCH...Shots hurt :( I had my two month shots today. I knew something was up this morning because mom and dad both got up early. Daddy made breakfast. I think it was cinnamon biscuits, and boy did it smell good. Come to think of it I can't believe they could eat knowing that I was gonna get shots. No one told me it was gonna hurt. I tried not to cry but hey I'm only a baby. I couldn't hold back the tears. The first thing they gave me was some kind of sweet liquid...I thought hey this is gonna be a breeze. Then the nurse laid me down and took my pants off...I thought WOO HOO I am gonna get to lay here naked. Then BAM-she stuck me. I poked my lip out to show that I didn't like that one bit. I didn't cry long because once we were done I got to go outside. I was very tired so I decided to sleep the pain away. I don't feel good today :( Mommy and Daddy are trying to butter me up now. They have held me and give me extra kisses. (I know they feel bad, hey I even got a toy out of this whole deal; yep I've got them wrapped around my little fingers, but shhhh don't tell them)

Ok to catch up because I haven't blogged since the 27th and today is the 9th. Nov. 28, we just hung out around the house. Mommy wrapped a few gifts and me and daddy just hung out. That night we went to Ross so mommy could find her a new dress for my dedication Sunday morning. Mommy is very hard to please apparently because daddy kept holding up dresses and mommy made funny faces at them. She finally found a dress that made her smile and it made daddy smile too but I think that was just because we were done shopping. On the way home mommy and daddy decided to stop at IHOP for dinner since I was napping. Well the very idea of them trying to eat a meal. I woke up as soon as they brought their food out. Mommy got hers to go because I wouldn't let her eat. We finally went to bed around 12 that night. Sunday morning we all woke up early and got ready for church. I got to wear my comfy outfit Mr. Ray and Mrs. Peggy Sue gave me. Granny and Harold bought me a blanket just for church. It was super soft so I loved it. When we got to church everyone was excited to meet me. Mom and dad waited for Granny and Harold to arrive. Aunt Sharon, Uncle D, and Robert came too. I must be a big deal :) We sat at the back of the church and I loved it. I was really quiet the whole time. I liked the singing. Then daddy and mommy got to take me in front the church and the preacher (Mr. Chuck) asked them a bunch of questions and they had to say We Do...then they gave me a bible and a piece of paper. And mommy and daddy got a plant to take home. After church we went to Cracker Barrel with Granny, Harold, Mr. Chuck, Mrs. Flo, and Chuck's mom. Of course it was kinda boring for me since they won't let me eat so I decided to just sleep. December must be a special month because mom and dad keep counting down to something. They keep talking about some man coming to bring me gifts...I say come on big man. I'll take the whole bag! December the 2nd I had a doctor's appointment. Just a regular 2 month check-up. I weigh 13 lbs. and 12 oz. and I'm 23 1/2 inches long. Dr. Whipple said I looked great and I'm doing good. At our next appointment he will start talking about me EATING!!!! I'm excited about that :) Then I think he might have mentioned something about those shots, but I'm pretty sure he didn't tell me they were gonna hurt. Friday night (December 4th) mom and dad took me to Aunt Sharon and Uncle D's to listen to the band practice; well they got to listen to then band while Aunt Sharon played dress-up with me. I thought dress up was for girls but apparently Aunt Sharon doesn't know that. She put some kinda antlers on my head, then a big red hat, then she even tried to stuff me in a stocking. When we left there mom and dad took me to Granny and Harold's so they could spend time together. They went and ate Mexican food then went to Wal-mart. That is like the perfect date in their eyes...daddy loves Mexican and mommy loves Wal-mart (and I do too) When they got home we all went downstairs and watched a movie. Well I slept through the whole movie. Sunday mommy and me stayed at Granny and Harold's house. We just played and took naps my favorite kind of day. Sunday night Mr. Steve, Mrs. Patsy, and Austin came over for dinner. Daddy cooked some pasta bake and mom made a few desserts. I love it when people visit! We had a great time, they both love to hold me and I love being held. Monday night we watched a movie downstairs about that big man that is apparently coming sometime this month. I love watching movies with my daddy. I can't wait til I can go downstairs and eat popcorn and lots of candy (daddy says we have to keep it a secret; mom might think it will spoil my dinner if I eat all those sweets) Last night mom made dinner then we watched another Christmas special on tv. I really liked it, I like it so much I slept through the whole thing. Now that leads us to today. Phew catching up is hard to do. Ok so I'm gonna go nap some more and hopefully I'll start to feel better soon.
Oh and by the way the picture is from my dedication...aren't my parents a cute pair?

Pictures, Turkey Day, and Black Friday


Have you ever seen a baby so cute? Wednesday Mrs. Lindsey came and took my picture. Mommy was so excited to see her again. It's been at least 6 years since they have seen each other. I really like Mrs. Lindsey...she got down in the floor and played with me, and she asked mommy if we could go outside and boy do I love going outside. She took a ton of pictures and she had me sitting in my rocking chair from Aunt Jeanine. Then she brought me back inside and took my clothes off and made more pictures. I managed to flash a few smiles at her. She sent mom one picture and our disc should be in the mail soon with the rest of them. Mommy and Daddy can't wait to get it. Mommy enjoyed getting to catch up with her best friend from high school and we all are very grateful she took amazing pictures of me.
So yesterday was Thanksgiving. Me and mommy got up early and enjoyed the beautiful day. It was windy but it looked pretty outside. Mommy cooked a green bean casserole, then she woke daddy up and he made some yummy mac-n-cheese. Mommy made a gallon of tea and then we were off to Granny and Harold's. Uncle D, Aunt Sharon, and Robert were there too! Uncle D held me til I fell asleep. I slept most of the time we were there. Once mommy and daddy got done eating we went to Aunt Shellie and Devin's house. Mommy and Daddy ate a little more once they got there. Aunt Shellie made all the food, and mommy said she was thankful for not having to cook :) My big cousin Devin read me a book while we were there and then he went through all the sale papers and made a list of toys he wanted. I can't wait til I can make lists. When we left Aunt Shellie's we went back to Granny and Harold's. We waited on Granny to get back from the nursing home before we ate dinner. I met some new people tonight too. Mommy's cousins William, Nique, Lexi, Austin, Malcolm, Misty, Mallie, Mackenzie, and Mary Grace stopped at Granny's to see us. Lexi has learned to whistle and I smiled cause she whistled at me. Once we ate dinner I went to sleep and mommy went with daddy to get some gas. I stayed with Granny. Mommy dropped daddy back off at home and then she came back to Granny's. She fed me and then she went to Toys' R Us for there midnight sale. The lines were so long she didn't buy anything. I'm glad she didn't stay long because I was starving by the time she got back home. She fed me and we went to bed. I think I finally quit fighting sleep around 2. I slept til 5 am. Mommy got up and fed me then she woke Granny up and Granny went back to bed with me while mommy went and picked daddy up. For some reason they were going shopping before the sun even came up. Around 8 am. mommy and daddy came back to Granny's and picked me up. Daddy says he missed me and I missed him too. They took me to Target to pick up a few last things. Then we went back to Granny's so they could eat lunch. We finally made it back home and I was pooped. Me and daddy were gonna watch Christmas movies but we both fell asleep. Mommy got all the gifts wrapped that they bought today. I took a very long nap. When I woke up my Grandpa Tweedell called. They wanted to come see me and bring me a gift. Grandma Becky bought me a HUGE nutcracker. She knew mommy and daddy collected them and she wanted me to have one of my own. Mommy and Daddy had already bought me my first one, but this is my first big one. It's way bigger than me. I really like it. Now it's night time and I've slept most the day. I'm kinda tired now. I guess I am gonna go snuggle in the bed with mommy and daddy and try to watch those Christmas movies. Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving. Night night

Tomorrow is the big day


Geez..I've gotta start keeping up with my blog more often. Let's see Saturday I took my first trip to Wal-mart. Mom and dad got separate buggies and they bought groceries. Well dad pushed me in one buggy and mom shopped. I don't really see what the big deal is about wal-mart. I slept the whole time, seemed kinda boring to me, but it made mommy smile :) Mom saw lots of people she knew and she loves showing me off. Saturday afternoon we went to Aunt Sharon and Uncle D's to listen to his band practice. Well mom and dad went to the basement to hear them play and I stayed upstairs with Aunt Sharon. She put me on the floor and the drums vibrated the floor...and I fell asleep :) Sunday Granny came over and played with me while mom decorated her Christmas tree. Then we went to Ross and Walmart with Granny while she did some more Christmas shopping. Then we came home and mom decorated some more. Then Aunt Sharon and Uncle D stopped by to drop off my hat that I left at their house the night before. Uncle D held me and talked to me. He even made me smile. Monday was pretty much the same ol' same ol'. Me and mom went to Granny's and stayed until the afternoon. Then we came home and hung out with dad. Today has been pretty boring too. I've been sleeping at night like a good little boy, and now mommy and daddy can't sleep. When I laid down this morning to take my early morning nap mom got up to clean and dad was finally able to fall asleep. I napped a few hours which mom greatly appreciated. She's been cleaning the house like a mad woman today...because tomorrow is the big day...Mrs. Lindsey is coming to do my pictures. Mom is excited to see what she comes up with. I might even decide to flash her a smile :)

Well I won't promise I will "blog" every night this week because I know it's gonna be busy the rest of the week. Tomorrow pictures, Thursday is Turkey Day...whatever that is. Thursday night we are spending the night with Granny and Harold so mommy can get up early to go shopping (how silly) and Sunday is my dedication at the church. Wow I need a nap just thinking about all that :) Anyway until tomorrow night night.
