Yosemite

Daddy & Corben walking down to the river
We spent a great day in Yosemite...big trees, lots of waterfalls, short hikes, fun!!

Corben loved hearing the river water and playing with the river ROCKS

Stopping many times to see the waterfalls and beautiful scenering in Yosemite

Oh no....

Corben very sad after pooping during bath time. He cried and wanted out instantly!

Mom of course had to run and get the camera.

Having fun outside

Popcorn...

Meme got Corben this "popcorn popper" awhile ago and everyone kept asking when he could stand and pull it.......well the fun and loud popping noise is here.

(that is not pee on his pants, I just wiped off a strawberry stain!...he actually has liked strawberries the past few days, probably because we get them so fresh from the farms!)

Sand

The sand is finally here, and oh, it is Corben's favorite new thing!

View of Corben throwing lots of sand out of the sandbox.
With all the sand constantly being thrown out of the sandbox onto the ground, I guess I am wondering why I thought this would be a good idea...Boys play hard and make messes, Mommy is still trying to understand!

Outside

Corben loves to play outside many times a day!!

Water play table

Thanks Papa John & Meme for our new water/sand play table!!
Notice how wet Corben is from the water!
The other part of the table is for sand, coming soon.

Eating with a fork

Corben eating chicken, broccoli, and wheat maccaroni & cheese with a fork!!

Sandals

so socks and all he went outside to play today with dog Dixie.

Playing peek-a-boo anywhere he can!!

Empty

Emptying Mom's kitchen towel drawer...
