Happy Memories

I'm really attempting to have a good day today.  I want to share some happy memories that we have of our Corbin.

He loved to kick me while in my belly.  I always said he was practicing to be a ninja.
He hated his feeding tube in the NICU.  He was forever trying to pull it out and got really close once.
He didn't like his special glasses he had to wear while under his Billy Light.  Every time I walked in the room he either had them almost off or twisted.
When he got mad, he got mad fast.  He had a heart monitor that would alarm whenever it went over 200.  We called it the Corbin's Pissed Alarm.
He was an avid farter.  So many times we thought he filled his diaper and it was just a fart.  He was so good at it, the NICU nurses would mention his pension for farting in their shift reports.
He struggled to take to breastfeeding.  My husband likes to change the words to songs.  Best one ever - he changed the words to KC and the Sunshine Band's "Shake Your Booty" to "Suck the Boobie"  The song went "Suck, suck, suck.  Suck, suck, suck.  Suck the boobie.  Suck the boobie!"  One of the lactation consultants showed us an arm pumping technique to help him feed.  It was hilarious when added to the song.
He was a vivid dreamer.  He constantly made sounds in his sleep that sounded like a sheep or goat.
He loved laying in his swing but did not actually like it to swing.
He was laying in his bouncy seat one night while we were watching a movie.  There was an explosion in the movie and it startled him so much he threw his arms above his head.  It was like he was on a roller coaster.
He constantly peed on himself.  Once he actually managed to get it in his hair and his ear.
Even though we never heard him speak a word in life, he was and still is a really funny kid.

Love you Corbie!
