16 Months Old

Corbin turned 16 months old while we were on vacation. Crazy!

Mr. Corbin still has majorrrr attitude! We have our hands full with this one! No is his favorite word and he shakes his hands in front of him like an umpire saying you're safe at home plate! lol He also sticks his chest out and yells so loud his veins pop out! It's pure craziness! I'm hoping, no scratch that, praying, it will get better as his communication skills improve.

The day we left on vacation I had to take Corbin to the dr. b/c he had a slight fever and I didn't want to chance anything since we'd be gone for 2 weeks. Thankfully, I did b/c he had slight ear infection. We started antibiotics that day. He also got FOUR teeth on bottom (eye teeth and molars) while were gone (and one on top is very close to coming in). I'm sure this accounts for some (most?) of his grouchiness... they look so painful! He now has a total of 14 (almost 15) teeth! What a mouthful!

He weighs 24lbs 2oz. Size 4 diapers still... wearing 18-24 month clothes and size 5 shoes (when we can actually get him to keep his shoes on!). The boy is soooo funny- he cracks us up with his antics! He hates wearing shoes and takes them off (or gets mad if he can't get them off), but he LOVES to bring everyone their shoes (and he usually takes ours to the right person!) and he hands it to you and says, "tank ou" (thank you). So sweet!

He is such a climber... he always has been, but it's just gotten worse! He has now figured out how to climb on the kitchen chairs (yikes!). Thankfully, he is pretty good about figuring out how to safely get down too... We stopped using the high chair b/c he wouldn't eat very well in it anymore and kept trying to climb out! We are now using a booster seat at the table and he is doing great with that (and it's easier on us too then moving the high chair to the table each time!).

He still loves his sippy cup. He gets a cup of milk in the morning and one before bedtime. Otherwise, during the day he has mainly water with a few drops of juice (unless Daddy is making the sippy and then he gets more juice, tsk tsk daddy!). He says uiccceeee for Juice. I love hearing him ask for or say things.

He only has about two toys he will actually play with and otherwise he's always on the go just running around and chasing his brother :)

He's still not very picky about his food (most of the time)... for example on vacation he ate Japanese and didn't blink an eye!

He LOVES the water. He has NO fear! We went to an indoor water park in AZ and he would stick his face in the water and crack up laughing, he loved the water slides and wanted to do them by himself (Mr. Independent).

He is such a blessing (attitude and all) to our lives. I can't imagine how boring life would be with out him :)

I am anxious to see how his personality keeps developing!
