Water

Corben so serious about watering the lawn...
Well, he did take a few drinking breaks...

but then he was back to business!

Like Father like son

While Daddy was reading the newspaper today,

Corben wanted to sit by him and read his book!

Magnet board

Nonie got Corben this blue magnet board to hang in his big boy room.

He loves to put all his letters on it and dance to the ABCs!

Corben rode with Daddy on his lawn mower today, for the entire back yard....

of course Dixie dog had to tag along too!

They both waved at Mommy several times!

Corben had a great time helping Daddy

and actually didn't want to get off the lawn mower!

Kyndal & Corben

Towards the back of our property our neighbors have 2 horses.

Corben & Kyndal ventured out to watch the horses.
After they picked up the newspaper, Corben & Kyndal are walking back on the curb.

Corben is getting really good at stacking.

Of course he still loves to knock them down.
Nonie gave Corben a new turtle hand puppet!

Hopefully Daddy will blow up the inflatible pools soon...it is hot!

As you walk into his room, you see the letters Daddy made for Corben
His big boy bed and bookshelves...

(It looks like he has been in this room for awhile..haha)

Notice the safe bed rails...hopefully he will stay in bed.

One happy BIG BOY!!!

Yes, he still has his pacifer....one thing at a time!

Meme is in the process of making him his very own twin bed quilt
