Frosting and a Bath

Mommy made a cake today and Corben was all about trying the frosting!
After he went pee-pee in the potty for the 5th straight night...
Corben took a BUBBLE bath!!
Notice the sticker on his arm as a reward for going pee-pee!
Corben decided to taste the bubbles....

...and quickly decided it wasn't the best idea!

Lately Corben wants to read books to himself before bed...

tonight he wouldn't even let Mommy sit in the chair with him.

What a big boy!!

Fresno Zoo

Daddy went with us to the zoo until our friends arrived...

we saw many animals and had such a great time!

Daddy & Corben watching the swinging monkeys.

Corben was excited about the monkeys and even wore his monkey shirt..

and made monkey noises!

Daddy & Corben...this time at the zoo, Corben was so surprised to see all the big animals.

Looking at the kangaroos...if Nicholas climbed, Corben wanted to also!
