Where oh where is the time going? I guess it doesn't help that we have been 'celebrating' his birthday for almost a month now but who cares he is little. Since his birthday fell on a duty weekend for my hubs we celebrated as a family a few days ago (i will expand on that in another post) As for today THE DAY, sadly I had to work for a few hours but he got to spend time with a few of his favorite people his auntie and his bff Tyra! Everyday with my little man is a blessing and one I cherish but today for me was extra special and I found myself a bit emotional over it. My father in law sent Corbin a voice text and I started bawling as I listened to him wish him a happy birthday. Made me a little sad that we cant be closer to family but happy that Corbin has such loving and caring people in his life.
The past year has been spent with him growing in leaps and bounds, learning like crazy, and giving us lots of heart attacks. We experienced our first set of stitches, our first very large black eye, our first run in with real snow and so many other things. Our most recent accomplishments have been that we are now a tay-tay (paci) free home!!! I was willing to let him wait until he turned 2 but it happened sooner, yay us! Also we are well on our way to being potty trained, today for instance he never want pee pee in his diaper he used the potty all day for that. He can count to 4 and say some of his ABC's, he can dress himself with very little assistance, he can tell/show us his left and right hand/feet, identifying animals is a breeze. I am sure the list could go on, he is just such a sponge. Currently one of his favorite catch phrases is 'OH SHIT' shame on me I know.
Every day is something new and exciting and when I have free moments to sit back and reflect I am just so amazed that I, we, are responsible for making such a remarkable person and I am so very proud of him. Becoming a parent will change you forever and you never really understand that until it actually happens, for me, it has been the best change if my life.
Love you Corbin James!!
