Happy #9 Birthday Mr. Coby!
Can I just tell you how much I love this kid. He is the best big brother ever. I love that I can always count on him to do anything. I often look back on the years this little guy has been in our life and know that it just wouldn't be the same without him.
We started the day with Coby's favorite breakfast--PANCAKES! He only ate the the strawberries and whip cream, but that's okay because it was his birthday. It was a school day, and he begged to stay home, but since we are on the verge of a 2 1/2 week fall break, I said no. I felt a little guilty, so Keenan, Cali and I took him subway and sunchips for lunch, and we came back later in the day with popsicles to celebrate his birthday with his class. I made chicken tacos with mango salsa for dinner, and we had cake and ice cream after.
The cake was a bit of an ordeal--I ended up making two. The first one i totally dropped on top of the stove as I was taking it out of the oven to check to see if it was finished cooking. Note to self: DO NOT attempt to remove cake from oven using only one hand and the other hand to shield 22 month old from touching the hot stove--Put the fat baby in her crib. It's much easier :) Coby said the cake reminded him of giant donut--he was right :)
