The Good-Corbin finished swimming lessons Friday He learned to float on his back, do bobs in and out of the water and swim a little with his face under. Also Derek's brother and sisters are in town, just flew in yesterday. We look forward to a fun week with them.





The Bad- We had our first trip to the emergency room yesterday. It's such an awful story, it keeps playing over and over in my head. Corbin's finger got chewed up by an escalator in a department store. The employees were of NO help. Customers were getting us paper towels and ice and calling 911. ( that is a whole story all on it's own) We did make it to the hospital where a plastic surgeon was able to sew him back up. He thinks that he saved the finger (right index, good thing this little guy is a lefty) but we just have to wait and see if it heals.
Luckily It was a family outing, if Derek hadn't been with us I don't know if I could have handled it. Pops and Bryon came down to the hospital to give Corbin a blessing and take Cooper home with them. That was a blessing all on it's own and it really helped calm Corbin down. He has been playing and not complaining about pain. We hope that lasts. But no more swimming for a while and no more moving stairs!

The Ugly- on a lighter note we had out house painted. No more ugly peeling brown and tan for us baby....we went green with blue & white trim. I know it's not the standard around here but we love it.
