Playing catch up!

Wow, I have neglected this blog for a long time...and I'm upset about that! I like to use this for reference when making Corbin's "yearbook" and just to have to remember all the fun memories and milestones! So, here's a recap of what's been going on:

Shortly before Halloween, Corbin started taking his first unassisted steps with confidence! It sure didn't take him long once he realized that he could let go of furniture/someone's hand....now he's RUNNING all over! He got to be a ring bearer in his Uncle Jeffy and Auntie Britt's wedding in November! He did so good and was so handsome! We had a great Christmas with both sides of the family and the extended Younggren family! Corbin was so spoiled, of course, but he really uses everything he got, so I consider that a win! His vocabulary is expanding more and more every day. He seems to pick up new words all the time and is still constantly talking, whether we can understand him or not!

He really loves "Shshe" (Jersey). As soon as we get home, it's the first thing he says and she's the first one he looks for, and is chasing her around and playing with her all day/night long! He likes to grab her "sheep" and run around with it, but gets mad when she takes it away....he forgets it's not his. His other favorite words are of course, "tractor", "mamamama" (for grandma, when the Ipad rings for Facetime),  "Mama" "Dada", "gock-ey" (hockey), "guck-ey" (yucky), "mooo" when asked what a cow says, and last night he successfully said "popotamus" for hippopotamus. The hippopotamus comes from his FAVORITE book, so after working on that one, he said it a couple times, but I don't know that it'll stick around quite yet! :)

He has a favorite book, but he's obsessed with pulling out all his books from his shelf, sitting on them, and paging through them all. He's also obsessed with ceiling fans, and if you have one and it's not turned on, he'll point and ask you about it until you turn it on! He's really good at putting his hands up when he's wondering where things went or when he's wondering something. He also enjoys dancing, tickling your feet (his dad taught him that one), finding your bellybutton, blowing raspberries on your belly, and being tickled. He also enjoys hitting his hockey puck with the stick and if you play a fun game with him one time, that's alllll he wants to play! Oh, and he's in love with brushing his teeth! He does a pretty good job, too!

No need to talk about food, or sleep. Those are his two favorite things! :) I've loved every age of course, but I'm REALLY loving this age! He's so fun, interacting, copying us, and is so happy and goofy! Love this kid!
