Happy 1st Birthday Corbyn!!!


I canNOT believe it has been a year since our little Corbyn was born. I look back at his birth as one of the best experiences of my life. Corbyn is very sweet and silly. He loves to charm the ladies and says "hi" to everyone and everything. He is walking and dancing and loves to be entertained by big sister.

After weeks of semi-regular contractions I had no idea what my body was doing! I went to my doctor Wednesday morning and he said "no change" He scheduled me to be induced in a week but I really wanted to go into labor on my own since i was induced for my first baby...

long story short- I did go into labor on my own the next Tuesday evening. We were at Wal Mart (Stillwater's 24 hr Mall ;) and I started having contractions very steady and strong enough that I had to stop walking for it to pass. We finished our shopping and called the hospital. They said I could wait an hour and then come in so I straitened my hair (it was hideous) and organized plans with the Queens who were like family the whole week. They took Elayna over night since our parents were not in town yet. Then we went to the hospital. They nurses were suprised to see that I was a "6" and everything went really smoothly and we had a big baby boy very early the next morning.

I love my baby boy. I wish he could stay just the way he is forever. I love having two little ones running around. I love that they play together and laugh together. They are such blessings in our lives!

Corbyn is so cute. I just love 1st birthdays. It is amazing how much they learn and grow in 1 year.

Doesn't it make you sad, yet relieved that they progress so much in just a year. He is still a baby for another year though!! Happy birthday, Corbyn.

What a sweet baby! I can't believe that he is one years old! Time has flown by, that's for sure. How sweet that Corbyn and Elayna play and laugh together. Those kinds of moments are my favorite. I hope he had a wonderful day.
