Oink, Moo, Neigh...

...it was Cohen's 1st Birthday!
A Farm Themed Party!
Cohen loves tractors and so a farm themed party
seemed perfect for his 1st birthday celebration!

...

We celebrated Cohen's birthday a little late.

Unfortunately due to the flu bug

his birthday party had to be cancelled and

rescheduled for another day.

Thank you to everyone who was able to make it

to help Cohen celebrate his 1st birthday!

Here are some pictures of the fun day!


The birthday boy!
Of course we couldn't get a smile from Cohen
for a family picture...stinker!

Some fun birthday decorations!

A party crown for the birthday boy

and party hats for the kiddies

who came to the party!

An adorable farm themed banner

The banner and his monthly pictures


Some table decorations

*A special thank you to Erin Remme

and Jess Newman for the adorable decorations!"*

The yummy cupcakes

(I made them....can you believe it?!?)

The most amazing cake!

How cool is this?!?

(Yeah right...I did not make these...

thank you to Sandi Ostling)


And Cohen's smash cake!!

Cohen started off slowly...


However, it didn't take long for him to dig in!

Cohen is ONE!!

One year old!

We can hardly believe it!

Our little baby boy is 1...and not so little anymore!

This past week we had our 1 year check-up.

Here are the stats...

Weight: 23 lbs. (73%)

Height: 30 1/2 inches (72%)

Head: 48 cm (95%)

The Doc says he is a healthy boy and doing well!

...

Cohen has learned so many things in the past month!

~Cohen's biggest accomplishment...WALKING!

Yep, he is walking everywhere.

He started walking around 11 months.

We rarely see him crawl anymore!

~Cohen can wave bye-bye

~He says "hi"

~ He can make a sheep sound and cow sound

~ He can tell us what a tractor says

~ He tries to imitate many things that we say

~He has 6 teeth now

~ No more formula...onto whole milk!

~ He loves eating food that we do:)

...

During the week of his birthday we had the flu

bug go through our house.

Unfortunately he was not feeling great

on his birthday.

Here are a couple pics we got on his big day!


And of course his monthly tie picture!

The last one:(

Stay tuned for pictures from

Cohen's Farm Party!

Into Everything....Literally!!

Cohen is on the go...

and into everything!

Anything he shouldn't do he does!

...

The other night I was doing laundry

and Cohen decided to try

and get into the dryer.

With a little help from mommy

he was in and loving it!


Not only does he get into dryers,

but he also LOVES the refrigerator!

Anytime the door opens,

Cohen is on the move to get in.

Apparently he is looking for the perfect

beverage and the one on the floor

was not good enough:)

After a while he needed a drink...

Dr. Pepper was the perfect choice!

Where did he learn to gulp like that?!?

...

Have I mentioned that Cohen is walking yet?!?

Yep...he has been for a few weeks now.

More updates on that soon!

Our cute lil' dragon!

Cohen's 1st Halloween...

A little dragon!

Cohen wasn't so sure about

the costume at first.

It took some practice runs in the costume

before we got him to keep it on

without screaming;)





The Chap kids all dressed up!

Cohen and his babysitter Makenzie

He loves her!!

(And so do we!)

After a big night of

trick-or-treating the little guy

was tuckered out!

I hope Cohen had as much fun

as I did this Halloween!

He was one cute lil' dragon!
