Corbin's Six!!

We can't get over it! How did he grow up so fast, but mostly why did he grow up so fast. Corbin has been such a joy in our family, he is constantly putting a smile on us and making us laugh. Corbin is full of energy and excitement, but he can become extremely shy and quiet in public. Just like his mom and dad. We are amazed at how much he has learned in this past year. He is not so much the little boy that we think of anymore. He is loving school and having his own grown up life there. I thought that after a couple of weeks he might get sick of school and beg not to go, but that is not the case. He loves it! He really likes his teacher, he loves playing with his friends, and he even likes doing his homework and reading. He loves p.e., he loves picking out a book on library day, he especially loves computer day, and music time, not so much; but he still will surprise me with some of his songs that he learned. The other day I got quite teary eyed thinking that this time next year he will be away from me for almost the whole day, oh not again, sorry I can't think of it anymore.
Corbin, we love you more than you will ever know! You are our first born, you are the one to help guide your younger brothers, they love you so much. Taylor loves to play pretend with you and those little games that are just between the two of you, oh it's adorable to watch! Levi loves to copy everything you do, it is so apparent how much he adores you! We all do!

What does a little boy want to do for his birthday? Here it is:
(In case you don't understand a 6 year olds way of spelling)
Corbin
Optimus Prime
Hot Dogs
Salad
Not sure what the next one is
Watch T.V. (our favorite, he spelled it wochteve)
Star Wars
Popcorn
Play Games
For his presents, we didn't want to get another transformer, (they are kind of annoying in my opinion, too many pieces that break off really easily) so I was thrilled to find this shirt instead. Regularly $20, I got it for $5. Which is a little more on the expensive end of what I am willing to pay, but hey, it's his birthday :)
His favorite present, a spy gear watch. This is totally what Corbin is into right now, he comes up with all kinds of gadgets and runs around with Taylor playing some kind of game with them. I thought this would be perfect to add to his collection.
This watch has the different times of 25 countries around the world. So whenever he is on some kind of mission, he can know what time it is in China. Justin even thought it was pretty cool!
Happy Birthday to our big creative boy!

Happy Valentines Day

From our family to yours!


Corbin had a great day at school. He couldn't wait to show his brother's all the Valentines he got. I was a little puzzled though, how does a 5 year old boy, who has only brother's and has never seen anything on the disney channel, know about Hannah Montana?? At least he was most excited about the superhero ones, phew... I still have time...Levi couldn't wait to get his hands on the Valentines. And once again, he watches his brother's VERY closely.
I love these boys so much!! But most of all...
Happy Valentine's Day to my Valentine!! I love you Just!!

Photo shot for Valentine Friends

Valentine's Day is fast approaching. This year we are actually going to make Valentine's for friends...I have been waiting for this day! It is so cute to see the boys get so excited to make gifts for friends! I have seen this cute idea floating around the blog world and I loved it, I okayed it with the boys and then we went off to find a red wall. All I needed were some pictures of them holding out their hands in a fist, easy right! Yeah, it was, but I got more than I asked for...

Do you think his class mates would like this one? Why do they think it is so funny?

Puff out that tummy just a little more.

Levi wanted in, he watched the boys take a couple pictures, then he was ready and knew just what to do. This is Levi's look. Although usually it is accompanied by an incredibly fake cry. I don't know where he got the one eye thing, but darn, it is adorable!

Is anyone's house ever as loud as mine?

Go, go power rangers!
sigh...
again, sigh...
Almost way too adorable.
It was a really fun afternoon, these boys are full of personality and I love it! It was nice just to let them have fun and not have it be too stressful. Cause honestly taking pictures of three children under 6 can be that way most times!
