Merry Christmas & Happy New Year

We had such a fun Christmas weekend! It was so wonderful not to travel this year. We celebrated & entertained at our home & it was very special to us.

The festivities began when we had a Christmas Eve party with appetizers and game night. Here is a peak at the spread:



We had Amie and Avery over, too. Corbin was very interested in Avery's big boy game



The boys played wii in the basement





Santa came that night! Corbin let us read him The Night Before Christmas. He loves that book!



First glimpse



Wow!



Can't wait to dig in!



Opening his electronic drum toy



The room was stuffed!



Opening his music table



Cool! Grandma Mary made him an ABC book and he also got a leopard that responds to touch.



Playing with his flashlight that he had in his stocking



The next day, we celebrated with Jon's family. Here he is with his new piano from Aunt Jeni

Sadly, this is the last post of Sweettart Cravings. It has been such a fun journey these past few years! Now, we have a new blog to fill, starting after the first of the year. This blog will be more reflective of the entire family. Visit with us here: Team Kranz

From our family to yours, we hope you had a merry Christmas and have a happy, healthy new year!

We Are So Cruel...

Christmas Celebrations Begin

We celebrated with Grandpa Rick over the weekend. We had dinner out at HomeTown Buffet. Corbin didn't eat much except for the desserts (of course!)

We also took a trip down to the Picktown lights and Corbin marveled out the window once again at the cool house decorations set to music.

Here he is opening a gift. He is really good at it!



He loves his Duplos!

2 Year Appointment

Here are Corbin's 2 year stats: 27# and 34" tall. It was the first time he didn't need to take off his clothing and he got to stand on the scale and against the wall for the first time. He is in the 50% for weight and 25-30% for height.

We went to the Mothers of Multiples' Christmas party on Saturday & Corbin had a blast.

Here is is before the party

At the party, they had pictures to color!

What did you get me, Santa?



Cool! A Blue's Clues See 'N Say!

Birthday Party

I'm over a week late, but better late than never! Three children 2 & Under makes it a little busy around here!

We celebrated Corbin's birthday on November 22nd at 4 pm. We had the party here & invited our playgroup friends & family, too. It was kind of a large party. I think next year will be the first year we do a destination party- probably at a bouncy house. He's still too young this year.

The theme was Diego/Dora. Corbin had a fantastic time. He was running around, squealing excitedly the whole time. He worked up an appetite, too, because he ate all of his grown-up-sized piece of pizza, and of course his cupcake and ice cream, too.

Here's the cake that everyone else ate



and Corbin's egg-free cupcakes that mommy made



A couple decs



Corbin sat in a toy truck while he ate his pizza in the playroom



Cousin Ethan came



Opening presents. He was into it, but there were so many that I had to help to speed things along.



He loved this puzzle from Uncle Mike



Hmm, let me look a little closer



From Grandpa Rick









Time for cake!







The twins celebrated in their own way
