WOW! I am so glad that I did not have twins. I am exhausted with just one. All of you mothers out there who did double duty I commend you! Corin is great, he laughed for the first time a few days ago and has not done it since. He was looking out the back window of our truck at the sun and laughed a “real” laugh…or as I like to call it a belly laugh. It was kind of like he chuckled, anyway he did it four or five times. Since then he has not laughed again I think he forgot how. I am anticipating him learning the skill once more so I can see many more baby laughs!

Chester is at an IT convention. While he has been gone it has been oh so exciting. Corin saved up all his BMs for the day after Chester left. He decided to make it easy on me and get it all over at once. One hundred baby wipes later, I was hoping that I would never have to change a poopy diaper again. They say it only gets worse!

Mumblings, and grumbling aside I am so happy to be a mom and I am enjoying Corin and his sweet spirit immensely. I love watching him discover the world, both the good and the bad. More soon…

Here is a picture of our new couch.

We picked it up on Sunday…well Chester drove down and picked it up. It goes well with our new area rug and our leather love seat. The color isn’t right in this picture but you get the idea. It is comfy so come and sit on it.

Baby Blue Eyes

April 7, 2008 in Uncategorized by Elisa | 1 comment

I sat with Corin against my knees yesterday taking his picture. I was amazed at how he always looked right at the camera. Perhaps it was seeing his reflection in the glass of the lens. I can’t believe how blue his eyes are. It would be fun if they stay that blue but time will tell. I am wrapping up my trip to San Diego. It has been delightful, fun, and full of delicious coffee. I have had a wonderful time making cappucinnos on my Dad’s new espresso machine. Here are some pictures of Corin’s lovely blue eyes.
