Birthday Parties...

First bday: A few weeks ago, we celebrated Papa's birthday. Aunt JK and cousins BK and LK came up to visit. The first 2 pics show us singing Happy Birthday to Papa.

Corrina and Papa

Next bday: MC's bday party at the Zoo. Here Corrina's looking at mice in the petting zoo.

In Zoomagination (which is a really fun center in the zoo that has lots of stations for the kids to learn about and play in different countries, animals, ecosystems, etc.), Corrina found this big stuffed elephant, and she carried it by the trunk behind her around the room. It was pretty cute!

Here she was crawling through this little colorful tunnel and kept trying to stand up in the middle, but she finally got the hang of it.

Final bday party: GG's first bday party today. There was a townhome full of little ones running (or crawling) around; it was too cute! In this pic, JDT was pushing Corrina around on the train (they were learning to share), then in the next pic, they switched. It was so adorable!



This is little LH, who just loved the red chair. Actually, that little red chair was a huge hit with the kiddos.
Here's the birthday boy with his first bite of cake! Then, he rubbed it all over his face. Happy Birthday, GG!



Stay tuned for another post tomorrow with pics of Corrina in the Easter Egg Hunt!

By The Way...

It's March Madness time; hence, the new blog background. Also, please notice Corrina's shirt in the new pic at the top. Go Wake Forest!!! Although, now we're just hoping for a bid since they lost in the ACC tourney. Boo.

We Have Survived...

Phew...this last month and a half have been pretty rough for the Teigen household. Poor Jimmy has been sick for about 6 weeks now--first the flu, then PNEUMONIA?!!!, then a stomach virus. But finally, Corrina and I have our man back. HOOORAY!! A big thank you to Mimi, Deedaw, and Papaw for helping out while Jimmy and I were both sick. Couldn't have survived without you! Love ya'll!


Now on to more exciting things...pics of Corrina's first haircut! Her hair was crazy long; her bangs were down in her eyes all the time, so we thought it time to get her hair cut. She did okay; there were a few seconds of tears but the stylist pulled out some bubbles and they were soon best friends. (It made me think of that smoking commercial where everyone is blowing bubbles instead of blowing smoke...love that commercial!) Anyway, now she has a big girl hairdo, but to be totally honest, it doesn't look too much different than before. But at least it's not in her face...
The after pics...she had ladybug clips in her hair; they were soooo cute!
Weeee! fun with daddy after the haircut.
After the new do, we went to the zoo. Here's a video of Corrina with the penguin. I love how she says, "Hi!"
