Korban's First Pumpkin

Korban was so excited when he saw the pumpkin and couldn't wait to touch it! He's really into texture right now!


He managed to pull out quite a bit and ate some of it, enjoying every bite (no seeds)!
Since Makayla was only a few weeks old last year, the kids got to celebrate their official "First Halloween" together! It took her a little while to warm up to the pumpkin, but then she decided to help Joey and Jenn "put it back together" by dumping the seeds back in the pumpkin.

After the kids had their fun, they got a bath while the daddy's carved!

And He's Up...

Korban was "low crawling" for awhile, but rarely does it any more since he has figured out how to maneuver on our slippery floors.
He loves his toy basket, especially when he dumps it!
He is a budding star, already posing and getting excited whenever the camera appears! He even recognizes the little beep sound it makes when I turn it on!

Korban is eager to stand and is pulling up to everything these days, and then testing his balance! He can hold steady for a couple seconds, and then he falls and starts all over. Needless to say, we are entering the days of the bumps and bruises.

Growing...Growing...Growing...

It seems like overnight, Korban just started sitting up! He plays great alone and with other kids now and is full of adventure!
Korban has graduated to the "big boy" tub and loves to wiggle around like a fish and splash a ton!
Korban loves his bathtime and stands at the tub bouncing with excitement, waiting to get in.
We got the baby gates installed just in time, as he is very curious about the stairs! Mommy's heart isn't quite ready to let him explore stairs yet.
Korban is playing with his leap frog farm here, and loves the little songs it plays!
