10 months!

Time has flown by. We can't believe that Cohen is 10 months already....crazy he is so fun and we are so lucky to have him in our lives! Cohen is standing as much as possible, walking along furniture very well but we still have a ways to go on the whole balance thing. I've been feeling like we have a puppy in the house lately as I have to watch what Cohen is chewing on after I found teeth marks on our entertainment center...you would think wood wouldn't taste that good.... Brad and I have both said a number of times that we are so ready for spring/summer since Cohen has been sick pretty much the entire winter. Every time we think he's finally getting better he gets something else. This past week Cohen and I came down a nasty cold/flu bug. We took Cohen in for his 9 month checkup last week Thursday, the 24th, so pretty much 10 months. His doctor said he looks great and is right on track, she referred to him as a maniac. He finally got his bottom two teeth and his doctor said that she could see four more coming in up top. Again we were reminded by his "stats" that he is a long, skinny kid: Height: 2' 5.5" (77%) Weight: 19 lbs. (17%) Head: 17.95" (50%)

I tried to snap some 10 month pictures of him but it's a little harder than it used to be. The 10 month sticker wouldn't show threw the shirt he was wearing and I couldn't set it by him because he just wanted to hold it and crinkle it. I think I got one mediocre picture. And then after that I tried to get some more pictures but he just wanted to have something in his mouth the whole time. :)

Brad was on spring break last week and he said the one thing he wanted to do was take Cohen swimming. We did that right away on Monday with Auntie Cara, Payton, Brady and Landon....after that we had nothing to look forward to. :) We had a great time and Cohen loved the water. He even did well with daddy dunking him (see the video below). We had such a great week with daddy home just hanging out and getting projects done around the house. It was very much needed after he had just finished up with basketball the week before and hadn't had a break since the start of school. I think it made us all excited for summer.

....Now it's 2am and I might as well finish the blog. I waited for Brad to get home and then Cohen woke up and is wide awake playing downstairs with me. I have to say this is the first time this has happened which I'm thankful for. Anyways....here are some new pictures.

These are the best I could do for 10 month pictures....not very good.

I finally have two teeth!

Cohen in his snazzy swim diaper! (Thanks Lapkas!)

You can see just how skinny the boy is!

All the kiddos in the water.

Landon being cute!

Here are some clips of Cohen "dancing" by his toy, getting dunked in the water for the first time, and learning his animals and sounds and family on daddy's ipad. (I didn't edit the videos so they might get a little long...)
