Trips from the last few months.

These are just some pictures from the last couple of trips we took in May and June. May was Disneyland for Mothers Day. June was the Grand Canyon. Jeffrey Harrison our good friend went with us.

Infant Study

This is the onesie she got for helping.






Today Kori and I went to UNLV for her to participate in an infant study. When I was approached about participating in this I jumped at the chance. They were going to be testing her learning capabilities, musical capabilities, and how intelligent she is. I was very interested, and thought it would be fun.
So first they just watched her play with various toys they had there. Blocks and things like that. Then they showed her a couple of videos to see how she learned from them, and how well she followed along with them. Then she played again.
The results were very interesting. She is highly intelligent! They said that for a typical nine month old she is very very advanced! She learns things quickly and remembers them well. I already knew that one, all I have to do is show her something once or twice, and she can do it. And, she is very musically inclined. She knows how to pick out the beat of a song already! That's a cool thing....seeing as how I still have trouble keeping a beat, and I can read music! LOL

It was a lot of fun for both of us to participate in this study. They gave her a cute little onesie at the end, to thank her for participating. I couldn't get any pictures of her during the actual tests, but, I did snap a couple of her just playing afterward.

Koris First Trip to Disneyland, April 2009

Tinkerbell flew into our hands for this picture.
The very first character she met was Mickey Mouse!
We got to go to a special character greeting with Chip and Dale! They loved her and wouldn't let us leave. These are just a few of the many pictures they got of them together.


Matt and I always have to have pictures taken in front of Mickey and Walt and the Castle. Now we get to share that family tradition with our children.


She LOVED Winnie the Pooh!


In April we went to our favorite place in the world, DISNEYLAND! It was Koris first time there. Going was a dream come true for both Matthew and Myself. For years we would be in Disneyland and see babies, and children and would talk about taking our own kids one day.
This trip was just like we imagined it! We mixed it with a work trip for Matt, but it was still great! Kori rode on a lot of rides, and LOVED them all! She even met Mickey, Chip and Dale, Winnie the Pooh, and Tigger! It was so great!
