Smith Family Snapshots: Corbin

loves playing with toys with brother G and looking in the mirror with mommy

smiles all the time... when he is not teething ; )

movement he scoots around on his bottom and tummy. And will take a knee forward when crawling, but only on soft surfaces.

night time sleep is becoming more consistent!!! If he goes to bed at 6, he will sleep till 5-6. But if he goes to bed later than that (like 8 pm) he has the hardest time staying asleep through the night and getting back on track with sleep in the following days.

naps He rocks his short morning nap and longer afternoon nap. He sleeps best in his crib with sound machine compared to sleeping on the go, or in his car seat during errands -- so we stay at home a lot, and it is lovely.

eats He is nursing and eating pureed fruits and vegetables. It has been a fun game for me to grocery hop around different stores (Wal-mart, Target, HEB and Randall's) to check out all the fun different Gerber baby food options (Randall's has the coolest options). I made G's baby food (and highly recommend that) but have had fun shopping for stage 1 foods this time. C seems to have taken to eating faster than G did, and I wonder if it's because how thoroughly Gerber stage 1 food is pureed, compared to what my mini-prep food processor did...

routine little man loves to play in the morning, eat solids at lunch and dinner and play more in the afternoon. Around 5 he starts to like to be held until bedtime, so we are getting in some sweet snuggles too!

dislikes his face being washed,

favorite toy
G's duplo legos are a guaranteed hit. He also likes my spatulas and a small metal bowl ; )

started
*raises his arms to be held, or lunges forward (BEST THING EVER!)
* Corbs cut his 2 front bottom teeth! (Dec 18 and Dec 22)
* blows raspberries, and thinks it is the funniest thing ever.
* claps his hands
* likes to play peek-a-boo when he is on his changing table
* is distracted while eating food if G is sitting by him. Otherwise he has a great appetite.
