Corbett's 7th Birthday!!

 Corbett had a pretty good birthday this year!  It started with my  mom's new tradition of having one birthday party a month for all the birthdays in that month.  Corbett and Taylor are the only January birthdays and Taylor couldn't make it so Corbett had one very large party at my mom's house on Sunday.  My mom even made him a basketball cake and put out a birthday sign for him!  Thanks Mom!

My whole family was there...with the exception of Grant's family.

Next we had a "surprise" party for him on Wednesday (the day before his birthday).  He informed us he "knew" we were going to have a surprise party for him this year so I thought I'd better not disappoint.  This was a very last minute thing.  We just called a few friends and cousins a few hours before the party and luckily they were all able to make it! 

We had a Captain America themed party because his present from us was a Captain America costume and shield.

We let the boys make their own pizzas.  Other than that they just had ice cream and cake and goofed around in the basement and played Kinect.

We love Corbett SO much!  We are so proud of this sweet young man!  

On Corbett's birthday we didn't have time to eat the cake, plus it was VERY large so after school on Friday we had the kids from the cul-de-sac over to help take care of the cake.  It was a lot of fun to have them all over. 

A few things about Corbett...
1.  Corbett is VERY sweet and VERY complimentary.  You can not "out-compliment" him.  It just won't happen!
2.  Corbett loves his mom (especially) and his family.  He constantly tells us how much!
3.  Corbett is really nice to his brother and sister usually.  There are times when the little boy in him comes out and he likes to make them scream.
4.  Corbett is very sensitive and tender.
5.  Corbett loves being social.  He likes to go to art club, he does sports for the friends, he wants to join and participate in anything and everything!
6.  Corbett is a great reader.
7.  Corbett STILL loves water.
8.  Favorite dinner is tiny spicy chicken
9.  Corbett hates to sleep in his bed.  He always asks to sleep on the floor, and he prefers our floor or the babies' floor.
10.  Corbett loves to watch Johnny Test.

Happy Birthday Corbett!  We love you!
