The Past 3 Months of His Life

So much for documenting Cohen month by month. It's so sad that I'm already slacking with my first child, at this rate my last kid will be lucky if I take any pictures of them and/or remember their name. Nevertheless here is my lame attempt to record the past 3.5 months of Cohen's life.

At the L.A. county fair (in August or was it September?). I intend to make it its own post but who are we kidding given my track record this is as good as it is going to get.

After a bath

Cohen:
  • is very vocal. He likes to talk to people.
  • sleeps through the night consistently (5.5 months)
  • crawls as of 10/3/09 (7.5 months) and is fast. He is mobile and gets into everything, his favorites being the trash can, my piano music, and taking off all the books on the book shelf.
  • He has two crawls: One for carpet and another wood/slippery floors.
  • gives high 5's
  • gives open mouth kisses on command
  • pulls himself up on everything; couches, piano bench, doors, walls etc. and will walk along with support (8 months)
  • has 4 teeth (8 months)
  • Eats baby food. He loved all the veggies until we introduced fruits. He no longer is a fan of peas or green beans. He could eats puffs or as we call them stars all day if allowed. He likes table food too. So far he has had bananas, green beans, rice, black beans, crackers, fishies. This does not include all the popsicles, ice cream, and other food his aunts and grandparents like to sneak him. No wonder the kid won't eat green beans!
  • He is weening himself, sadly. There are just too many exciting things he is missing out on by nursing.
  • He is very curious
  • Understands some signs and is now signing 'more'

At Sea World

Yes, he is playing the piano. Right now he is working on a piece by Debussy called Clair de lune.

O happy day

It took my kids forever to sign "more". They both went with "all done" as their preference for first signs, followed by milk and eat. My favorite sign, was when Alyssa would sign "pickle" and pucker her lips and make the sound! I love the baby signing!

So cute! We've done signing with our kids (Cali is still learning it) and with Aedan it really helped a lot! He was able to tell us what he wanted and then pretty soon he'd say it too since we'd always say it and sign it at the same time. We didn't have big tantrums because he couldn't communicate. :)
Cute pictures!

I love the "after the bath" picture. That towel is much more dignified than the frog hoodie I make Kevin wear.
