Corin is now 6 months old and growing fast. He is wearing 9 months clothes and growing out of them quickly. I will soon be pulling out the 12 month outfits even though he isn’t even close to a year old. The last few months have flown by with the fast paced summer life up here at Hume and the several visits away from Hume. I have so enjoyed watching Corin grow and learn about the world. He seems to have an imagination already! I will give him some toys and set to cleaning the kitchen and soon I hear him babbling away. He will be talking very quickly to whatever he is playing with. It is so much fun to watch! Corin is hopping up on his knees and rocking back and forth. I don’t know how much longer until he crawls but I am told that is an integral part of crawling. Chester and I did a photo shoot of Corin yesterday and I posted the photos to my gallery you will see the link along the side titled 6 Months or you can just click on the link I will leave below. I hope you enjoy them. I will try to post more in the coming months… Will things ever slow down?

6 Month Photo Shoot

Here is a schedule of Corin’s moods…

Wakes up

Happy (talks laughs and plays with his giraffe)

Complacent (plays with his giraffe)

Tired (complaines to giraffe about how bad day is)

Takes a Nap…Wakes up and the cycle begins again.

Here is a video of Corin complaining to his stuffed giraffe (favorite toy at the moment)

complaining to giraffe

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.

Six weeks to go! Chester and I have now moved the bassinet and changing table into our living room. The snow is falling and we are packing bags for the trip to the hospital. After spending all of my pregnancy waiting for the 30th of January it is strange to be told it could happen any time and to be prepared. It snowed up here at Hume the last few days and there is close to a foot of snow on the ground in some places. Before we could travel down the mountain yesterday Chester had to dig the car out, a time consuming process. We have a lot to learn about snow management! My family is coming up for Christmas, it will be our first year having Christmas at our house. The bassinet and changing table will most likely move to the storage shed to make room for, family, food and presents! We are looking forward to a white Christmas and New Year! Merry Christmas everyone!
