Cory-isms Again

Here we are 5 days into the new year and I haven't posted once! Shame on me! Or not. It's not like we've haven't been gone for the last 9 days and I'm finally (almost) caught up on the laundry!

I'll hopefully have some more holiday/Grandparent time updates later this week, but for now I leave you with the cute things Cory has done recently. (and in case you're sick of them, yes, this is mostly for my benefit in years to come!)


Saturday on our drive home we stopped to see the Great-Grandparents in The Dalles. Cory calls them "gee-grandpa" and "gee-grandma". We were playing some cribbage and I dealt Brian a really sweet hand. He said "I LU-UV you" to me and Cory promptly started saying "I love you" multiple times! It was really sweet especially because as we were driving away he said "I love you, Grandpa".

Grandpa had been sneezing a bunch while we were there and we were trying to get Cory to say "bless you", but he wouldn't. He's not much for saying things on command these days! Then later he sneezed and blessed himself!

He was so done being in the car by the time we got home (it's 7 hours of pure driving time not including stops) and he kept telling us he was "all done" but there wasn't a whole lot we could do about it. I think it was that night when we got home, but it could have been earlier in the week I heard him talking in his crib. He said "all done" clear as a bell, but then I heard no other noises at all and I figured he was talking in his sleep!

And finally... please click on today's comic from Stone Soup if you can't read it here. This has been Cory for the last couple of weeks!
