Random sweetness!

Cohen asked me to draw a picture of our family by our house, so I did my best...then he wanted to color it.

He saw me taking pictures of him, so he grabbed his camera and took some of me, too!



I got him out of the bathtub the other night and was drying off his hair when he insisted on seeing himself in the mirror. This is what he saw! Silly turkey!

My cup runneth over.

We had a rainy Memorial Day weekend, so we went bowling to stay out of the rain! It was a lot of fun!

Nice socks! I fear the day when Cohen starts to dress himself.... A dear friend of mine said with her middle daughter, they had to enforce the five-color rule on a daily basis - she couldn't leave the house if she had on more than five colors!

Cohen (and Eleanor's) first Texas Rangers game!

This little monkey was jumping on the bed! (It's his favorite thing to do in hotel rooms!)

I could eat him up, I love him so!

He loves to wear that cap backwards! Walking to the stadium...

"Wook at the huge baseball!"

Playing some games inside the Kid's Club at Rangers Stadium!



Getting a Rangers fake tattoo! He was so excited about that silly thing!

GREAT seats!

The entire week before the game, all Cohen could talk about was getting some popcorn at the Rangers game!


Mmm...nachos are pretty good, too!

...and this is where Cohen sat almost the entirety of the three innings we were there. Nice.

At least he's cute!
On May 18, we drove to DFW to take Cohen to his first Texas Rangers game at the actual Arlington stadium. It took us forever to get there because of all the traffic on I-35 and it was hotter than the dickens. We thought he'd enjoy it because Will bought great seats right close to the field and right off of the third-base corner. Needless to say, he was already chanting "Let's go home. Let's go home." by the end of the second inning. We were amused, though, by the drunken hillbilly sitting behind us shouting (in slurred words) "Let's go Rangers" which Will said sounded like "Ice cold banjos" and Cohen thought he was saying "Let's go rain show" so we all got a pretty good laugh out of that. We finished up our night by taking a bicycle-cab back to the car and when we asked Cohen what his favorite part of the night was, he said the bike-ride. Oh boy. SOOOO, summing that up: Third-base tickets to see the Rangers, $200. Food, drinks, and souvenirs, $100. Bike-cab back to the car, $20. Seeing our child with the wind blowing his hair back, thoroughly enjoying a bike-cab-ride, priceless!

Back by popular demand...

I've been asked by several friends/family members if I've been taking "belly pictures" of Eleanor growing in my belly like I did with Cohen, and to that I answer, um....no.

I felt so crummy at the beginning of this pregnancy that having my picture taken was at the bottom of my priority list. Sooo, that being said, here I am at 19 and-a-half weeks and I just took my first belly shot. Here we are... And to those of you who have asked, I'll try to take some over the coming weeks to share! :)

Welcome!

Little sister!


Welcome to our new blog! I started blogging when we found out we were pregnant with Cohen (about three years ago), thus began "Cohen's World." Well, now that we are expecting baby #2, I feel like it's not just Cohen's world anymore - he will soon be sharing his world with his little sister, whom by the way, will be named Eleanor Grace. I had my 18-week ultrasound on Monday, April 29 and Eleanor (or Lennie for short) is right on track for development and for her due date of September 29, 2013. I hope to use this blog as a way to keep everyone aware of what's happening in our little family, and, as the blog title infers, the many adventures of Cohen and Eleanor! Stay tuned!
