Mr. Cohen

 Two months shy of 4 YEARS OLD.

 A little update of my sweet boy:

- He is reading! He read the first BOB book by himself with confidence, might I add, so we went on a date to pick a prize at walmart. At of everything to choose from {cheap things only} he chose a gatorade drink with a spin lid.
- At Walmart this week he ran up to the butcher and gave him a high five and yelled "I just gave that Doctor a high five!" Also the same trip he starred down a guy with huge gage earrings in his ears, and said VERY loudly "Mom, are those earrings? Boys don't wear earrings!".
- When I was rinsing his hair out in the tub he said "Mom good thing I have a head so water doesn't get on my brain when you rinse it." 

- Two things Cohen said to me tonight when I was tucking him in bed, "Mom, don't you wish we were at the airport on our way to my Grandma's house?" {DO I EVER! He says this daily} and the other thing was when we were saying we love each other we always say 'i love you to the moon and stars and back' which then turns into a war of who loves the other more...tonight Co said, "Mom, I love you FOREVER!" I think he won the war. :)

- "Mom you're legs are brown now, why aren't they white anymore?

-this was after our get a way to the Beach Park in Granbury.

- I love to listen to him talk and say WAY grown up words.

- He is starting to be very good at addition! Loves to play our own little version of Monopoly and to add up the dice total.

- When he's tired, he's tired and he lets me know. Still sleeping 12 hours or just under every night. He hardly ever has scary dreams anymore {YAY!} And he is extremely happy the second he wakes up. Always ready to start a new day and make it good. 

- He is starting to be more consistent about being a nice and patient big brother. I think he's really realizing that Brendon doesn't understand everything, and he's ok with it.

- If doesn't want to do something or doesn't think he can he'll simply say "Naw, I don't want to, I'll do it when I'm 4."

- Wants to have his birthday party at the Fire Station. Workin' on that one...

- Says the sweetest compliments to me throughout the day that make me smile, even when I want to get really mad at him for doing something naughty.

- He is testing the waters with telling LIES. But for the most part, he won't follow through with it, he ends up telling us the truth.
