Excuse me, Mr. Standy Standerson

 Little Cohen is LOVING standing up!! I can always tell when he stands and turns to look at me, how proud he is of himself. 

We are proud of you too big guy! 


We have recently purchased new shoes for our little tike and I must say I was quite shocked at his current shoes size! A WHOPPING size 5! I am completely obsessed with his New Balance's...just makes him look like such a grown up fella. He has not quite gotten the hang of crawling in them yet. He more or less crawls like he is carrying around ten pounds worth of shoes behind him! But no worries, I'm sure he will get it down soon, seeing as how nothing has held him back so far!


Cutie has been growing so fast and his personality just amazes me. These days if you were to visit our house you might notice a few things:


1. We have these lovely hair rubber bands tied around the knobs of all of our cabinets. Our Curious Cohen likes to pull things off of our shelves...i.e. casserole dishes, paper towels (which he absolutely destroys in a matter of minutes!), Lysol spray, and mixing bowls. Needless to say the rubber bands are an absolute necessity!


2.We keep a variety of Cohen's books in the living room. He has become enamored with having books read to him. At night we sit in the recliner and look at books. If I close the book however, it turns into a crying spell! He just loves books right now, and I'm hoping that he will stay that way:)


3. Our bathtub consists of about 10 rubber duckies in a variety of colors. Cohen is now taking "big boy" baths and he  could play in there all night if we let him!


4. The pantry is packed with cuties new foods! Since we are on a Lean Cuisine for supper diet, it makes it kinda hard for me to share our food with Cohen. So, we started him on toddler foods!! And OH MY does he love it! His favorites are ravioli bites!


Needless to say, we are enjoying every minute with this guy and would not change our new lifestyle for anything!!

Way to go big boy!!!!
