First Teeth!

Corbin's first teeth finally cut through today! Exciting!

That doesn't mean she's been missing out on yummy food, though! She is very persistent about trying whatever we're having, even if it's not baby appropriate!

She seems to love cookies. A LOT. Even the not-baby kind.

Like Oreos. :)




And she's super mobile now! She's here, there, and everywhere, and everything goes right in her mouth! She does not discriminate! She takes to following me and Ryan around the house, and she always comes and finds us. Yesterday I was in the bathroom getting ready and she found HERSELF! It seemed like a pleasant surprise, as she spent the next five minutes in there laughing insanely at herself!



Life is so much fun with our little Corbi-lou. And here it is, the day before Christmas Eve! I'm so excited for our first Christmas! I think it's going to be a good one!

Happy Holidays! :D

Christmas Barbies

I love Barbies.

One thing that I have always wanted to do, should I have a daughter, would be to get her the Holiday Barbie for Christmas every year. It would become a traditional sort of thing.

I keep going to Wal-mart, and I keep looking at this year's doll, and then I get VERY discouraged by the price tag.

She's $40. Five bucks more if you get her from Toys 'R Us.

Ryan tells me that it's a waste of money, but I think this is something special, and I might regret it if I don't do it!

Tonight I decided to check the price on Amazon, and there is the 2008 Barbie, for $23, and FREE SHIPPING.

I think this is my chance!

So...do you think this is a waste of money? Or should I start my tradition now before I regret something later?



Advice! :D

Christmas Lights!

So I've been wanting to do one of these portraits, but it's taken me a while to get around to it! It was just as hard as I thought it was going to be! Hard to get the right light, hard to get my now mobile baby to be still, to quit drooling, to quit trying to eat the Christmas lights...sigh.

This is what I've managed:


[Looks best at full-size!]

I like it. But I'm not sure if it's THE portrait yet! I don't know, we'll see!

And I'm sooo behind on blogging. Corbin is now crawling and sitting up on her own! She almost refuses baby food, and wants to eat whatever we are eating, and will pitch a nice little fit if she doesn't get her way! She's also decided that she likes staying up late. :P But I wouldn't have it any other way. I love her too much!

Until next time!

Oh, PS. Some outtakes, lol.

Eating her tutu.


So done with this photoshoot!


Brooding.


Very interested in the pretend lollipop.


Trying to escape out the front door, Corbin-style.
