Fall Festivities

These are likely the extent of our fall outings this year!

Last week, my mom was in town, and since she got everything on my list accomplished, she thought she would treat us to an outing in Plain City. We got a lot of excellent food while we were out there & I also took the opportunity to take a few pics of Corbin in the pretty fall setting.

Here he is, checking out the pumpkins!



We had a hard time keeping his attention for a photo



We got a good shot with Grandma Mary, though!



Outside of Yutzy's, they had some animals that Corbin wanted to investigate



The next day, Grandpa Rick was in town. Since Jon was here to help, we wanted to squeeze in one last autumn activity before the twins come. We went back to Lynd Fruit Farm. First, we went to the fruit stand, where they had a new sampling booth, which enticed us to all try apple cider slushies and a caramel apple. We stocked up on blackberry cider, pumpkin butter & got a peck of golden sweet apples.

Next, we went to the corn maze, where they had a tractor pull. Corbin was a little small for it this year, as a chain was the only restraint. We still took his pic in one of the seats, though.





Here are the guys at the entrance to the corn maze



We see you, Corbin!



Daddy and son. This was the day of the Toledo v. OSU game, so Corbin is in his jersey.



Lastly, the boys took a hike up a mini hill for some exercise.





It was a fun day, but I ended up being absolutely exhausted afterward. I'm definitely done with the outings for now!

One-Sided Pillow Fight!

Cheese!

Happy Labor Day!

Corbin learned how to say "Cheese!" and smile for the camera today. It's been a long time coming, so I took several pics (I know they look similar, but they are all so cute I couldn't pick!)

The hat is his Uncle Ben's old hat.

A Couple of Cute Phrases

Corbin has been cracking us up lately. He's a little comedian.

One new thing that he learned from who-knows-where is saying "Ah-choo!" and putting his hand over his nose/mouth at the same time. He thinks it the most entertaining thing ever.

He also plays hiding games. He will put Daddy or Mommy or himself behind something (like a pillow or blanket). Then it goes something like this:
Corbin: Dad?
Me: Where's Dad?
Corbin: Where?
(Dad is revealed)
Corbin: There he is!
... and then repeat 5-10 times. The cutest thing is that when he does it to himself, he calls himself something similar to "Pappy".

Corbin: Pappy?
Me: Where's Corbin?
Corbin: Where?
(revealing Corbin)
Corbin: There he is!

He's also figured out that he can try and distract us by asking for hugs. He did it the other day when he was in trouble. He asks for a "Cug?" And of course, we always give him a hug & then go back to business. Tonight he tried to get out of brushing his teeth by asking for a "cug."
