Christmas Time!

I can't believe that it's Christmas time again. :-)

Only a few more days till Christmas and then a brand new year. Time just flew by so fast this year. Good friends moved and we made some new ones, life goes on. Thankfully those old friends still keep in touch and we get to see them at least once a month (you know who you are Brown family.. :-) We miss you guys).

October 2009

I can't believe that we're already half way through October already! Soon we'll be getting Joe all dressed up in his Thomas costume (hey, it still fits, so why not?) and going trick or treating. I think he'll have a lot more fun this year and it will be fun to see the family and friends again. Joe is getting bigger every day and has definitely become a little daredevil. :-) Good thing I keep the first aid kit nicely stocked. :-) It actually snowed here on the 10th but it melted too fast for us to take any pictures of Joe playing in it. I think we're going to have to buy him some snow pants, because once he "discovers" the snow, there won't be any luck keeping him out of it I bet. :-)

Our baby boy is 2 years old!

I can hardly believe it!  Joe turned 2 years old today!  It seems like just the other day that he was placed into my arms for the first time, so tiny and new.  Now there's no stopping him.  He runs around all day and barely stops to eat or sleep.He definitely keeps us busy!  We had his birthday party at a local restaurant called The Sports Page (since we're regulars there) and it couldn't have gone better!  It was a Thomas the Tank Engine themed party and we had all sorts of family and friends show up to celebrate with us.  It was a great day!  Now it's on to the next fun filled year!  No telling what might be in store with a kid like Joe around.  ;-)

Joe turns 23 months old today. It's hard to believe that our baby will be turning 2 in just one month. In some ways it seems as though we just brought him home, yet in others it seems as if he' been a part of our lives forever. He's the typical toddler, and is already acting like the typical 2 year old... throwing fits when he dosen't get his way and is butting heads with his Daddy almost daily. It sure is interesting having 2 strong willed men in our home. Should be interesting as time goes by. :-)

March 22, 2009

It's been a busy month. The weather has been pretty erratic, but that dosen't seem to matter to Joe. He wants to be outside no matter what the weather is and absolutely loathes coming back inside. I often have to literally bring him back in, kicking & screaming. Totally an outdoor kid. :-) I'm hopeful that the weather will continue to get nicer and that we will be able to spend a lot more time outdoors . I'm also hoping that we will be able to sell our home soon and find ourselves a nice regular house where Joe can run and play to his heart's content.

Almost 22 months old!

I can hardly believe our little man is only 2 months and 2 weeks away from being 2. He's the typical almost 2 year old boy though, getting into everything and testing the limits as often as possible. He loves spending as much time with his Daddy as possible, but it's nice to know that he misses Mommy when I'm away too. It's so cute to see him wave at us from the window when Daddy & I go somewhere. We love him so much and feel so very blessed to have him in our lives!

February 8, 2009

Just another ordinary week here. Joe is doing the typical silly toddler things and deffinately has his own opinion on just about everything. Deffinately his father's son. :-) He's still a Daddy's boy, but at least he makes time for Mommy. He just about had a cow when I left him in the nursery at church today. Silly boy. He's also been having bad dreams at least once a day for the last day or so. Poor kid. I think he'll be ok... just having a rough time every so often.

On the go!

Joe is always on the go it seems. Now that he's gotten really good at walking, he's started running. Yikes! He get so excited though that he sometimes forgets to be careful and bonks his little head. Good thing Mommy's usually there to kiss it better... even better when Daddy's there too. :-) Joe's really enjoyed having Daddy home today due to the MLK Jr. Holiday ... maybe because it meant a visit to our favorite coffee shop for cinamon rolls & hot cocoa & a meet up with his grandparents too! :-)

20 months old!

20 months old !

I can hardly believe that our little boy is just 4 months away from turning two! Sometimes it seems like we just brought him home from the hospital and yet other times it seems like he's been a part of our lives forever. He's getting really good at walking (he wasn't that big on it till about a month ago) and is getting even more opinionated if that's possible. He's deffinately a Corbett alright! Even has the temper to go with it sometimes.

Happy Holidays everyone!

Joe made out like a bandit this Christmas and tried to stay up for New Year's eve too. Only made it to 10pm. It was still nice having the family over (Grandma & Grandpa on my side).
