This summer has flown by! Corbie and I have a season pass to Cherry Hill, so we have spent a lot of time there... I have spent a lot of time chasing that kid and making sure that he doesn't drown. He has no fear of the water, so he will jump into the pool, try to run down the slide, and generally wreak havoc on everyone trying to have a calm day at the pool.
The 4th of July was great. I was scheduled to work a day shift, but it was really slow, so I was able to get off a few hours early. We headed up to my parents' cabin and spent a few days there with the fam. It was good times.
The 24th of July was great, too. We went down to the Bountiful parade with the Maxfield family and had a little get-together with the Burningham's. Corbs loves parades, particularly the candy. What is better than watching fire trucks and bands and other loud vehicles go by and have them throw 'nummies'?
We went on an overnight camping trip a few weeks ago with Walker's dad and sister. Corbie LOVED it! He loved the tent and throwing rocks in the river and running 'fast, mom' down the hill and playing in the dirt. My favorite moment of this little overnight trip was when the three of us woke up in the morning. Corbs jumped out of the sleeping bag and was wandering around the tent. All of the sudden, he stopped and said, "GUYS!" Then he pointed to the ground and said, "Poop!" I wondered if he had an accident in the night or if an animal had gotten into our tent and pooped or something. I sat up and looked to where he was pointing. There was nothing there. He just laughed and said, "Ha, ha." He has a tendency to do this a lot now. Take a toy away from another kid and say, "ha, ha". Steal my cell phone, hold it behind his back and say, "ha, ha". What a turkey.
Last week was pretty yucky- Corbie got hand, foot, and mouth disease! He had canker sores all over in his mouth and wouldn't eat for three days. He had a fever and was generally miserable. When this kid is sick, he is grumpy and wants everyone to know it! Walker and I had a few sleepless nights sitting up watching Corbie's favorite show, "George". He was contagious for about five days, which puts us at today, so we are glad to be able to get out of the house!
Baby update: I am now 29 weeks along. I prefer to think of it as 11 weeks left!

What a fun summer!!! I'm glad you are finally free to leave your house! Hope all is well. Corbin is SO adorable!!
Sounds like you're having a great summer! Corbin sounds like a funny boy.
Love the picture of him in the box!! Ha! I'm sorry to hear about Corbin being sick... I don't know that I've ever heard of Hand, Foot and Mouth disease... is that a less common one or am I totally out of the loop???
Parades are much more exciting when you have kids. Jed thinks the primary purpose of fire trucks are to throw candy not to put out fires.
I don't remember learning about Hand, Foot and Mouth disease in nursing school. Must be a new one. Man, I'm really loosing all my nursing knowledge fast by not working. I hope Corbin's feeling better. It's no fun to have sick kids.
