Cohen's 3rd birthday

4 months old

21 months

2 1/2 years

This crazy boy turned three today. He is one of a kind. Loves his brother "Ammo' and sister "Roo Girl." Cohen is quite the arguer. He will find anything to disagree with you on. This morning I told him happy birthday and he said, "No today is not my birthday. Tomorrow is my birthday." When I asked him if he wanted pancakes, waffles or eggs for breakfast he said that he wanted cereal. He just likes to be different. Cohen is such a smart little boy. But for some reason could care less about being potty trained. And he does not want to talk about it. Whenever I bring it up he acts really silly and pays no attention to me. He can be so frustrating but so adorable and loving. If Jody or I leave the house without giving a hug and kiss to him he cries.

At tHReE:

Has to eat breakfast the minute he wakes up.
Loves to jump on his trampoline.
Starts most sentences off with "well....."
Enjoys reading books everyday before he takes a nap.
If he sleeps with you he will want to hold your hand until he falls asleep.
Loves to go to the park.
His favorite foods are mac & cheese, quesadillas and cereal.
Inherited my sweet tooth, which I got from my mom. If he sees cookies, candy or rice cream he literally shakes until he gets some.
He always knows when I'm trying to hide something from him. He'll say, "What you eating?" I can't hid anything from him!
He's a great traveler.
Loves airplanes and going to the airport.
Favorite movies are Power Rangers, Ninja Turtles, and Jungle Book.
Sings the Indiana Jones song very well.
Loves to act like he is the karate kid.
He makes a friend wherever we go. Big or small.
Talks a lot and thinks he is the same age as everyone else.
But sometimes still says, "I can't do it. I'm too little." If he wants help with something.
Has to have water every night by his bed. If he doesn't he will get up three or four times needing a drink.
Loves to do anything Ammon is doing

We've said over and over that Cohen is such a different boy! But love him because he is so different. Such a stinker but then the next minute a total sweetheart. Most of the time he could care less if I'm getting after him about something. The other day a miracle happened. I got mad at him and he actually got his feelings hurt and started crying. It made me so happy! He's human! J/K. I love my little Co-Boy and couldn't imagine a life without him!

It seems like he really has grown up so much since I started reading your blog. I like that he likes to be different ;-)

Aw!! I can't believe he's 3! When did that happen? He and Ruby, again, should date. They are very similar. It would be scary..
