6 Months

I keep thinking I'll take a picture of Corbin for his 6 month post and that I'll write everything down on here- but I haven't gotten to it and I don't want to miss it... so the picture is going to not happen this month! Or maybe I'll get around to it soon... ha! Just wanted to write down some quick facts about what Mr. C is up to these days!


*He is in size 4 diapers... He was still fitting in size 3, but they were right and he was starting to pee out the tops at night so we switched to 4. It's a lot easier to squeeze his bellyicious self into them ;)

*He is in some 6-9 month shorts/tops still, but for everything else it's pretty much 12 mo. (sleepers and all one piece outfits). Seriously? My child is huge!

*He weighs 18.5 and is 27 1/2 inches long... that's 75% for weight and 90% for length! Built like my dad!

*His favorite person is his brother... seriously can't even tell you how happy this makes me... but it still amazes me every day that he can love him so much. Brycen walks in the room and Corbin cracks up laughing. Melt.My.Heart. I've just never seen anything like it. He also reaches for Brycen and then squeezes around his neck like a hug... I totally cried the first time that happened! I dreamt about my boys being best friends then when they were going to be 5 years apart I didn't think that would happen... but God's laughing at me now b/c they totally are. When Brycen gets in the van after school the first thing he says is "HI BROTHER!" And has to kiss him before he buckles!

*His feet are so fat we can't find shoes to fit him. lol, it was the same with w/ Brycen... (I have fat feet too!).

*He growls and it's the cutest thing ever!

*He likes the exersaucer and he has a favorite elephant rattle/stuffed animal that he loves to play with.

*He likes the bumbo seat, but now that he is sitting up pretty independently it's becoming a thing of the past.

*He still loves to eat. He takes about 30-36 oz of formula every day. In the morning he has a fruit and at supper time he has a veggie. We haven't found anything that he doesn't like!

*He is almost at the weight limit on his car seat (it's 20lbs) so I'm going to have to buy a new one... that's a bummer!

*He usually takes a good morning nap (2 to 2 1/2 hours), but an afternoon nap normally doesn't happen unless it's a quick cat nap...

*He goes to bed still around 7:30 and gets up at 8-8:30 if we are just at home... We're still trying to get into a "back to school/babysitter" routine b/c he isn't a morning person and doesn't like me to wake him up at 6:30 and it gets his schedule off for the entire day. I'm afraid I have two boys that do not like to be woken up in the mornings!

*His laugh is the cutest sound ever! He is saying dada A LOT(like ALL day long!). He has said mama a few times and he is really starting to say bubbaaaaaa a lot. Especially in the car when he can see B.

*He loves to be outside still and if he is upset you can take him out and he'll immediately become happy... hope it's not too long of a winter!

*When we got to the rental house is the first time he'd ever slept in his own room, but he has done great. He is such an easy baby and so flexible.

*Every where we go people just eat him up and I think he can't figure it out! lol, he just kind of stares at them like, "what are you doing?" lol!

*He is super ticklish and when you change his clothes he just heehaws!

Like always I'm sure there are things I am forgetting, but these are some basics.... we just love our little man so much and can't get enough of him!
