Whacka, Whacka

Today while I was making dinner Corbin learned the joy of whacking a large spoon against pots to create a delightful sound. It was loud, but kept him happy the whole time I was cooking, so I guess that's the trade off.
However it stopped entertaining him as soon as the expensive electronic toy that flashes lights came out, at which point all of his focus turned to trying his hardest to get the camera away from me so that he could drool on it and push buttons... he was almost successful.

It's been awhile...

Well we are finally settled in our new house enough to have found the digital camera cord and so we decided to update our blog.

A lot has happened in the last month. When we last left off, at the end of May, Corbin was working on learning how to sit up.

We would put his Boppy pillow around him so that when he got too excited and toppled over he wouldn't get hurt. By now he has been sitting up quite well on his own for about two weeks, which he loves, because now he can view the world up to a few feet off the ground, not just the ceiling directly above him or the floor directly under him.

The last week in May we also packed up our little house in good old Cedar City and moved everything up to the big city of Salt Lake.

(Here is Corbin helping us pack, which he thoroughly enjoyed since we had everything out and was able to get into most of it).
Right before we left we were able to attend John and Lindsey's wedding...Congrats Guys!!

Caleb had to start work on June 4th, but our house wasn't going to close until the 8th, so we moved into the Lloyd's basement for a few days, which turned out to be three weeks since the closing got delayed.

While we were there Corbin's Uncle Cameron was kind enough to style Corbin's hair for him, since he didn't like his ever so cool middle part.

With the help of all of our family up here we were eventually able to get moved into our new condo and things are starting to settle down. Caleb did training for the first week of work and then went to a conference the second week but ever since then he has been working on his first job for a client down in Provo.

And finally...tonight Corbin found his toothbrush, so far we haven't bothered using it since he has no teeth, but he actually loves it! He spent a good 45 minutes chewing on the bristles, so now we know his gums are nice and plaque free.

Well that is most of what we have been up to for the past month; from now on we will be more diligent in keeping you all posted.
