CHRISTMAS 2010

Here are a few pictures from our Christmas. We had so much fun!

CHRISTMAS EVE!

Corgin tried to keep Link away from the presents under our tree. He would grab him by his belt loop and say, "come on, Stinkers."

Once at Grandma Merri's, Corgin spent some time giving Link rides in the little sleigh. I think that Corgin had more fun than Linkoln.

Christmas Eve presents! Whatever could they be?

New PJ's for Corgin.

And for Linkoln too!

CHRISTMAS DAY!

What Santa left for the boys, before they came in to see.

Corgin was happy with his gift.

And Linkoln too.

Time to check out the stockings.

Lots of fun things inside.

Corgin had fun playing,

while Link tried to get the wrapping paper to play with.

Opening presents.

Link chilled in his new toy and played with his binky.

He's such a happy guy!

Corgin got a new Tonka truck and he had fun giving the babies rides in it.

Behind that cute little baby you can see all the evidences of a great Christmas.

Corgin had fun playing all day.

Jake, Tytan, and Link.

Here is a video of Christmas moring. Corgin didn't quite know what to do.

We had a great Christmas and we all got more than spoiled. Thanks to everyone for all the gifts and the wonderful time spent with family. Next up, Corgin's birthday!

Who "Nose" what will come Next!

Today we had a little incident. I was starting some dinner and Corgin was playing up to the counter with one of his little toys. Soon, he tells me, "I can't breathe." So I ask him if he put his toy up his nose. Sure enough, he says, "yes." I look and can see it is clear up there. I try to make him blow it out, but he can't. So now it's time to grab the tweezers. Clint tries a couple times to get it out. No luck and now Corgin is crying and telling us that he wants us to just leave it up there. We told him that we couldn't do that. He cried harder. Clint tries to push it down by massaging Corgin's nose. Corgin asks for a kleenex. I make him blow and tell him to blow really hard. Two blows later, we got it out. Lucky Corgin.

Here is the snotty toy.

Here is the happy boy once we got it out and he could breath again.

And of course, I couldn't post a blog and not add pictures of my other boy.

Here is Link in one of his favorite places to play.

Corgin always has to join in when I get the camera out. He likes to copy what Link is doing.

And yes, he is already pulling himself up on things and he'll even walk around the edge of the couch. I can't believe how fast he is growing up!

Camera Dump!

Here are a few pictures I wanted to post before Christmas.

My little Linkoln. He is growing up too fast!

Corgin is such a good big brother. He was rocking with Link.

This is what I found one morning when I woke up. Silly boys.

Corgin had to pull a funny face for the camera.

Then he has to give his brother a "big ol' hug".

Watching TV one morning.

Corgin likes to play in my tub when I get ready. Here's some evidence.

And he likes to sit in the sink when I do my hair.

Clint went fishing. I don't know if Clint or Corgin is more proud of those whoppers.

Linkoln loves to find the smallest places to go into. He snuck right under our feet between the ottoman and couch one night.

Corgin thought it looked fun so he joined him.

Linkoln loves to lick anything he can.

Corgin and Grant are all ready to go play in the snow after a nice Thanksgiving feast.

Look What Linkoln Can Do

Just in time for me to put up the Christmas tree. I guess I may have to wait to put out the presents.

My BouNcinG BabY bOy!

I put Link in his bouncer today and he just loved it. He was laughing and bouncing and clicking his tongue like crazy. He would giggle at anything I said. I loved it.

Just thought I'd share the love.

Update!

So, I had some pictures, but Clint took my camera today. . . I guess I'll post those later.

Here are a few things that I didn't have pictures of that I wanted to post anyway.

Link went in for his six month check up last week. He weighed in at 17 lbs and was 26 inches long, putting him in the 50th percentile all around. He had to get shots, but was brave and only cried for a few seconds. He was happy by the time we left the office.

Also, Corgin went on his first fishing trip last week. He came home and was so excited that he caught 5 fish! Clint said that he wasn't big enough to hold the rod by himself, so the guys would set the hook and hold the rod while Corgin would reel them in. I guess he kept saying, "reel, reel, reel" with every turn of the reel. He had lots of fun. Thanks to Grandpa Dewey, Uncle Jacob, and Dad for a fun fishing adventure.

Halloween Festivities!

Our Halloween fun began on Monday. Grandma Kristi and Grandpa Brent had us over for a little Halloween party at their house. We started the night with making some cookies. Corgin had so much fun helping to cut out the fun Halloween shapes.

And watching them cook.
Isn't he so cute in his little apron?!
Next, we got to decorate them. Corgin also had fun with this task. If he put a piece of candy in the wrong place, he would pick it up, lick off the frosting, and then place it where he wanted it. Needless to say, we got to take a lot of cookies home.

Not only were they fun to make, but they were delicious to eat!

Link liked to watch all the exciting things going on. He was very entertained.

After a nice dinner of tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwiches, it was time to carve the pumpkins.

Corgin was afraid at first, but we finally got him to pull the guts out with his hands. He decided it wasn't so bad after all.

Janelle helped Corgin cut out his Jack-o-lantern.

Corgin with their finished product.

The Robertson family Halloween party was Friday night. We went as the Simpsons, Homer (Clint), Marge (Katie), Bart (Corgin), and little baby Maggie (Link). Lisa was MIA.

Grandpa Great always dresses as a girl (we don't know if we should be worried or not).

Here are some of us enjoying the party.

Look at those cute chickens that Corgin was sitting by.

Some got all worn out.

We went Trunk or Treating tonight. Corgin was our little monkey.

Link was our little stinker.

Oh, and look what Link has started to do. It won't be long before he will be crawling.
