Bath time

Cohen has been loving his bath time:) He loves to suck all of the water out of the bath cloths! kinda gross, but boosting him immunity right! Its so nice that he can sit and play but now he tries to reach for his distant toys and takes a face dive into the water:) giving him a bath is always mt favorite part of the day.

Spider Monkey:)

OK so I am not sure how to get rid of the underlying but Oh well:)

Now for my comments on Twilight......

Funny, Funny, Funny:) I know it was not meant to be funny but we could not stop laughing, although this was provoked by my sister Carol! I promised my sister in-law Becky that I would give it another chance, but for now I am sticking to the book, much much better!

The movie wasnt perfect but the night was, I got to go out to lunch with some of my favorite girls, who cares about low budget movies when you get to watch them with sister's:)

Probably the best part was the food, we ate at the cheesecake factory and it was so yummy!

Thanksgiving 2008

Thanksgiving was so fun this year, we had it at my sister Aimee's and it was sooooo dilicious, Cohen even enjoyed his own things of baby sweet potatoes:)





This is a pictuere of Aimee's youngest boy named Andrew, he is so funny and I just love this picture, he is trying so hard to hold still and smile


Cohen and Jay skipped out on helping and Cohen enjoyed a back scratch from his daddy. Cohen better back off, jay is my personal massuse!











All The siblings minus Rachelle in Montana. We wish she was here!
It is so fun when we are all together and we get to pig out:)

School is out:)

I just walked in the door from taking my final and I started to scream halalua in my house! The feeling of having a LONG break and only ONE more semester to go just puts the biggest smile on my face, I am sure your wondering why this post includes nothing about Cohen but I am really behind and I will catch up this week:) We are leaving for Aspen Colorado tommorow, no not to spend tons of money (we dont have) in the beautful place, but for Jay to do some tile in a spa up there, I will have plenty of time to update my blog with pictures and stories about my little guy! So stay tuned..

Miracles happen...

I love these kids, they are all so cute and they are so good to Cohen

Well a couple weeks ago my sister Rachelle was here with her sweet new baby Kallin who was only 17 days old. They are from Montana and they came here for Kallin to undergo heart surgery at Primary Children's Hospital for what they thought to be a rare heart condition with his coronary artery. I know between family and friends Kallin was in all of our prayers. Like mine I am sure most prayers were seeking good health and a successful recovery for little Kallin. Once the doctors performed the open heart surgery they discovered that the surgery was not needed after all. I am sure the initial reaction is anger and frustration, these feelings made me uneasy for some reason. I got to thinking about how much we all pleaded with with our Father in heaven that Kallin would be healthy and strong and be able to handle such an invasive surgery. I then realized how easy it was to forget the miracle that took place, although the doctors say the surgery was unnecessary I like to believe that a miracle has occurred and our prayers for a healthy Kallin have been answered. Kallin was released from the hospital to return home with his family five days after surgery. He did so well, he even gained weight while in the hospital:) We are so blessed to have a Father in heaven who can hear our prayers and create miracles right before our eyes even if it takes a while to recognize them. Although the circumstances were not ideal, I am so happy I got to see my new handsome nephew, his parents, and my adorable nieces. We don't get to see them very often and we definitely love it when they are here:) I don't have any photos of Kallin or my sister, but here is all of the nieces and nephews hanging out one night (except the sweet little Kallin) We miss you and hope to see you again soon.

Happy Thanksgiving :)

Better late than never...Right???

Happy Halloween (one month later:) )

Halloween was so fun this year! We went to the best party of all time thrown by the Clyde's, thanks guys (won the costume contest by the way). The party was the week before halloween, my mom came down to watch cohen so we could go to the party. Thanks mom! The actuall night of halloween was not to fun, I went to clinicals but Jay dressed Cohen up and brought him to the hospital to visit me, every one loved him so that was the highlight of my night. Jay and Cohen handed out candy to the kiddies at home and shared the rest of the evening together:) I cant wait until next year when I can actully take him trick or treating and use him as an excuse to load up on some candy:)

Sincerley,

Richard Simmons and his number one fan PLUS the CUTEST ninja you have ever seen!

If your wondering why his legs look so sleek, yes he is wearing Womans tights:)

And dont be jealous of my bangs, I know you think I am hot

Who wouldnt want to be kicked by this little ninja, this was the best five dollars I have spent all year!

Please forgive me:)

We have been BUSY:)

Cohen is almost six months old and he is getting cuter (hard to beleive) and funnier every day.

He had is 4 month appt a little while ago and the results are sad:) he was in the 1% for his weight, WHAT??? Do those cheeks look like 1% to you?? Anyway the doc said it was ok because he has reflux and he is super active, so my chances of making him chubby are slim:( But... He did order me to start giving him rice cereal once a day with squash. YUM. So I started that and I even give him some formula after I BF him but the more I give him the more he barfs, so oh well I will just have to love my little anerexic anyway! He still loves to stand, roll EVERYWHERE, try to sit on his own, scoot, and smile alot:) I cant beleive we waited for him for almost four years, he just makes us so happy that we cant imgaine anything greater. The last couple nights I have asked jay if I could go pull him out of bed (already sleeping) and sleep with him, he always says no, but i just feel like he is getting to big to fast and I want to have him next to me always:) Well thats enough info so enjoy the best part, lots of PICTURES:)

Daddy showing him his first snow fall

We were studying on our bed and kept hearing this thump noise so we looked over to the botton of the bed and there was Cohen almost underneath our bed, he kept kicking the bottom. LOL

This was his first trip to VEGAS, we pulled over in St. george and let him stand for a minute (his favorite thing to do since he was born)

The sad thing about this pic is right after I took the pic he fell back flat on his head. jay was not to happy with me.

I am still confused about the blue eyes
Once every 6 months or so we go get some exercise and I walk him around in the stroller:)

THE BUMBO is my new favorite, he loves to watch me in the kitchen

The sound of me running water made him sleepy

Last night we were about to go to sleep and Jay said "I am going to go check on Cohen" well he had tried to escape but got caught, he wasnt sleeping or crying, just hangin out. I know I should have bought his bedding earlier but all boy bedding is so ugly and I could never decide but I promised Jay I would order some ASAP so he dosent do this again:) I orderd it tonight!

Like father like son, jay loves the internet and so does Cohen


he loves to be on his side, he sleeps on his side and apparently he shops in his stroller on his side also:)
So this was the first attempt at cereal, this was a little while ago. Now he is a pro and he loves it, I cant shovel it in fast enough, he starts to get mad and shake if I take too long.

hope you enjoyed!
