Corinna Turns 2-Months
















Corinna turned 2 months today! What a big girl she's turned into. At her last check up she was 12.35 pounds and 22.75 inches long. She's in the 97 percentile for height and weight. That means that only 3 percentile of children her age are bigger than her! But she's over her cold now and feeling much better.










Aside from several trips to the pediatrician with her brothers, Corinna travelled to the aquarium with us and did well. She also took her first bottle from Spike, "played" outside for the first time, and visited Jake's classroom for family day. She also really started smiling and gave us her first giggles.

A Fine Fishy Day
















We headed out to the Norwalk Maritime Aquarium (http://www.maritimeaquarium.org/) this weekend with Lainie and Bavan. The aquarium was great! Jake could have spent hours at the touch table (they had crabs, star fish, snails, etc.) and he pet a manta ray also. Aidan was not thrilled with touching anything of the sort. Jake had a much better time there it appeared. The boys had a great seat for the seal feeding and they even made wooden toy bots (Thanks Bavan!) Corinna did well on her first major outing. Nori handled the giant tank of freaky jellyfish with courage.

Fun at the Dentist




The big adventure for the day was going to the dentist with Aidan. He was EXCELLENT. I think he was better than most adults. The dentist was awesome with him. They had a nice TV in the room and he watched spongebob the whole time. He could have cared less about being poked. He's got very good/clean teeth, but he's got a big overbite--which I never noticed until they showed me in the office and now I can't stop looking at it...And a crowded jaw so he'll probably need braces. Figured that because Spike and I both had them. Then the boys tricked us into going to toys r us. (They used their own money) they all put on cute faces and said that they had been so sick they needed toys.
