My Sweet Boy

May 10, 2009; a day that will forever be etched in my memory. It was the day before Mother's Day and I had an early appointment at Baby Dimensions to find out what we were having. While shopping at Target a few weeks before I picked out the cutest little pink stroller that held her first baby doll. Chris picked out a Mickey Mouse airplane and it was decided right then it there whatever we were having...that was his/her first birthday gift. I secretly thought I was a having girl. Well just a few minutes later after we got there we found out...It's a BOY!!! I cried. I've never told anyone this but Chris, but they weren't tears of joy. I cried because I really wanted a girl. Carrie Nicole. My mom had bought a dress for her to come home in. Yes seriously. I know we are both a little crazy. I dried my tears and thought about how silly I was being. I became thankful that my baby was healthy and that's all that really mattered. We stopped at Babies' R Us and Chris bought a teether, a blue and green teether to be exact. Devin bought his first baseball and I bought a brown and green diaper bag. I spent months getting ready for Corbin. I became quickly disappointed that there isn't much stuff for boys. No super cute clothes. You can't put bows in boys hair or paint their nails. Then on October 1st 2009 Corbin Wilson Tweedell entered this world and I honestly don't know how I existed before. He was perfect! He was a boy and all I've ever wanted. No there wasn't any frilly clothes-big bows-or pink in our house we are ALL BLUE! He is 18 months old now and he is ALL BOY-100%! We play in the dirt, dig for worms, squish bugs, run, jump, try to fly, have gun fights, watch cowboys and Indians, burp loud and laugh a lot. I can't imagine why in the world I wanted a girl now! Who wants to sit inside and have tea parties....not me! We've had a fun filled day and you know how I know he had a great time...because he was filthy when we came inside tonight :) Dirty baby=Happy Boy :)
