Happy 2nd Birthday!

Corbin turned 2 today!

We traveled down to Newport, KY, just as we did for his first birthday & visited the Newport Aquarium. It was a long day, but it was worth it. Corbin seemed to enjoy himself.

Here are some photos from our special day.

Walking in with Daddy



Ooooh!



In the Frog Bog play area



Some sort of jellyfish?



Sharks!







Save me, Daddy!





Petting the sharks



Afterward, we had lunch at McDonald's & we had this old man talk our ear off. He had some sort of affiliation with the University of Cincinnati football team, but we didn't ask his name. Either that or he was delusional! Either way, he was nice & he got Corbin an extra happy meal toy in honor of his 2nd birthday.

His party is on Sunday. We decorated the house for Christmas the other day, so that it would be pretty for his party. We're keeping it simple. The only thing I am really making is a cake for him, and that is out of necessity, since he has an egg allergy. Otherwise, we're going as easy as possible...

Almost 2

Before he turned two, we wanted to document what a smartypants we have. He not only can recognize all of the letters and number up to 15, but he can count to ten in Spanish and do the phonics of all of the letters of the alphabet. I was lucky to get him to be pretty attentive this morning & get it on video.

Twick O Tweet!

That's how Corbin said it!

He had a good time with Daddy, Uncle Ben & cousin Ethan the other night. Apparently, he would say it before he actually approached the door, so not many of the neighbors heard it. Jon said his costume was a big hit!

I stayed home with Grandma Mary & the twins & helped hand out candy to all of the cute trick-or-treaters. A very successful night overall!







Come on, Dad!



Off we go!
