Coen's 2 year check up

Today Coen went to the doctor for a 2 year wellness visit. Everything went well and he is very healthy. He weighed in at 32 pounds & was 36 1/2 inches long. He was in the 97th percentile in height & 78th percentile in weight.

Happy Birthday Coen!

This past Saturday we celebrated Coen's 2nd birthday! It was a great day and we are glad that our family & friends were there to make it special for Coen. On Monday, Coen's actual birthday we took him to Chucky Cheese for some pizza & games. He had a great time!

Another Year Older.....

Well, the time has come again & January 25th is just around the corner. My baby boy will soon be the big 2! This year Coen will be having an ELMO party. We were at the Card Factory yesterday picking up some stuff & Coen spots a huge gift bag with Elmo on it. So he starts shouting "ELMO" but Coen pronounces it "MAILMO". He's so cute! I'm a little emotional just because he's growing up so fast. I was looking back at some of his baby pictures and oh how I miss all his fat rolls he had. Now he is tall & slender. Here are just a few of my favorites of him as a baby. No matter how old he will be he will ALWAYS be my baby boy.

Coen's love for Elmo

Over the last 3 to 4 months Coen has grown to love Elmo. He ended up getting 3 Elmo's for Christmas & luckily all of them are different from each other. He normally only sleeps with one but tonight he had to have all 3 in bed with him. Here is a picture I took of him after he fell a sleep.

Tool time!

Here's a couple of pictures of Coen & Jonathan playing with the tools Coen got for Christmas. There like two peas in a pod. Your such a good sport babe!


I should never have any problems finding a handy man for repairs....I've got 2 of them!

Christmas 2009

We had a wonderful Christmas this year! Coen was a good little boy and got tons of new stuff. I'm officially parking outside now due to the fact our garage is full of toys & bikes. Jonathan & I both got new bikes this year so we can start bike ridding. Just to name a few, Coen got a new powered 4-wheeler, baseball hitting machine, work bench w/ tools, new table & chairs and much more. Here are some pictures of our Christmas.
