Cohen at 1 Month

Though I swore it wouldn't happen it looks as though this is turning into an "All things Cohen" blog. Shoot. Here is my excuse, this mothering thing is all still exciting and new. Give me some time and I'll start adding in my random and pointless posts too in an effort to maintain those of you who are not as in love with my child as I am. And for those of you who are only here for Cohen updates I'll keep you happy too.

Let the oogling begin...

Cohen is an ideal baby. John's mom said that Heavenly Father knew what John's schedule would be like so he sent us a good baby. (BTW John was called as elders quorum president 3 weeks ago, so now our time with him is really limited-like it wasn't before) It's true though. He is a good eater; he breastfeeds like a champ and will take a bottle and a pacifier from anyone. He rarely cries although he is quite the grunter. A few weeks ago in church someone leaned forward to ask what that noise was only to find out the culprit was my son, grunting away. He is a social baby (just like his mother) and will let anyone hold him.

He loves his swing. He's all about the mobile above and stares at it til he falls asleep.

He's a good sleeper. He only wakes up 1 maybe 2 times a night and can sleep through anything, airplanes, piano, me talking (you know the volume I'm capable of; it's a genetic trait I inherited from my grandpa and mom):)... Here he is with Uncle Steve enjoying a much needed Sunday nap.



He loves music. He'll just sit and listen to me sing or play the piano, he also loves it when John plays guitar.

He's been dabling with the kazoo. My child is so advanced.


And lastly...this is a classic Cohen pose

As soon as we unswaddle him his arms shoot up in the "touchdown" pose.
