Cohen is five weeks old now. I had to take him to the pediatrician today because of feeding and reflux problems :-( but the good news is he is gaining weight really well. At almost 11.6 pounds he is in the 75% percentile for weight.

Cohen makes his video debut!!!

Heres a few videos of our little guy. He is starting to smile and make cooing sounds! It is so much fun!

These cute pages were done by Cohen's Grandma Stewart. Thanks Grandma!



I think that Cohen is starting to look more like Erik. Even his hair looks lighter maybe even a little reddish... But it is starting to fall out. Poor baby has a receding hair line. So who knows what color it will end up.

Tummy Time




I have read it is suggested that parents put babies on their tummies a few minutes a day to strengthen their neck muscles so I try to remember during the day to put Cohen on his tummy. He doesn't really like it and I feel bad for him try to lift is head i feel like I am torturing him.





My mom stayed with us for three weeks to help with Cohen. I am so thankful I wouldn't have been able to do it without her. Now that she is gone we are feeling the blunt of all our new responsibilities as parents. It is very rewarding, but definitely harder than expected. Now that Erik is back to school after a spring break, I am flying solo. I barely have time to brush my teeth and eat. It is a miracle I found time to update the blog.

Cohen is now two and half weeks old. We just had his check up. Everything is well he is healthy weighing in at 9lbs now. Look at his double chin!

Look how tight those little hands are clenched on that bottle!

Aggie is a big brother! Aggie is not sure what to think about his role as a big brother. He is confused about the new little creature in the house and is mostly disgruntled that he is receiving much less attention.

Cohen's First Photo Shoot




After a bath my mom and I decided to take a few pics, hoping to find a few to use in Cohen's birth announcement
