Holden Michael

The newest addition to the Williams' family has arrived.  Holden Michael was born on June 18th at 9:39 am weighing 8 pounds 3 ounces and measuring 20 inches.  He is a handsome little guy and has already stolen the hearts of his Mama, Daddy and Big Brother.

Rock County Dairy Breakfast

Every year a dairy farm in Rock County is chosen to host a dairy breakfast.  This year the breakfast was located in Janesville.  John and I decided we would get Corbin going early so he could enjoy the festivities before the crowd showed up.

Here is a picture of Corbin sittin on an antique tractor.

Corbin and Mommy acting silly.

Corbin had fun playing in the corn box, he even brought a few kernels home in his diaper...

There were all sorts of animals to look at.  We saw guinea pigs, rabbits, cows, chicks, kittens and of course this miniature pony.

All in all we had a great morning.  Corbin was napping in the car before we could get him home to his bed.  I was hoping the heat and the walking would send me into labor.  I did not get my wish!

Swingset part 2

If you remember, Corbin's swing set got blown over and demolished in a storm a few months back.  The insurance people came out and assessed the damage and decided to compensate us nicely for a new one.  My hubby, the handy guy he is, decided to salvage what he could of the first one and build on to it to make the ultimate in backyard swing sets.

Here is Corbin on his BRONCO swing.  He can use it by himself or with a buddy.  So far it's been pretty fun. 

This is the full effect of the new swing set.  Corbin loves it and his Daddy is pretty proud of it too!

Fish family

Here's the latest addition to the Williams' household.  6 fresh water fish...

John has been wanting to put together his fish tank for some time now and I successfully talked him out of it for about 2 years.  One day I came home to find the tank in working order, just waiting for fish.  Of course Corbin was excited about getting to pick out fish to bring home and to have some new pets.  I'm not sure which one of them was more excited...

So far Corbin has been helping Daddy feed the fish every night before bed.  He loves watching them swim around and eat the food.  He hasn't named them yet, I'm sure that will come.  After we let the fish get adjusted to the tank for a while the boys want to add a dwarf frog and a snail.  CAN'T WAIT...
