Cohen is now getting to a stage where he thinks the dogs are pretty hilarious. On a long car ride home from Nisswa, he got creative in making his own entertainment.
The park is so much more fun this year now that Cohen can walk. This is our favorite part because we can swing together:)
I just love this picture. Cohen took a two hour nap with Bryce on the couch. This has never happened to me and it has happened to him twice!
This would be one of those not so glamorous moments in being a mom, but I couldn't resist. He loved it as I felt like I was pushing a bus through the store and apologizing to the 20 people we hit along the way. 
This was taken back in March ( I have been a bit behind since being sick the whole month of March and now moving) Cohen loves to swim and had a blast at the Maple Grove community pool. I should note that this is where I got the stomach flu and we will never be back. At least I will never be back. But he had a great time:) 
I think it is worth noting that Cohen was growling at the bear in front of all the other children and mothers. So proud.We bought Cohen a train table for Christmas. His favorite use for it is not to play, but to use as a giant step to the ever entertaining light switch.
This was much better in person, but Cohen started dancing this week. He's got great moves. I think he could go pretty far with this.
Not quite tall enough! It's scary to think that he will be tall enough some day to reach the water. I want to keep him small:)
Thomas the Train is currently our favorite book. I think we read it three times tonight:)Cohen didn't know I was behind him in this video, but I caught him trying to get the last drops of my coffee.
So while my parents are in India, my grandparents came to stay with Bryce and Natalie. This was great because Cohen got to spend a lot of time with his great grandparents before they went south for the rest of winter. Here they are taking a walk through Nickelodeon Land. (Is that even what its called?? I just know I miss camp snoopy)
Possible arranged marriage?
Again, very little interest in sweets...
Some of the group.
On Cohen's birthday, we took him to the Minnesota zoo along with Natalie and Brandon's mom Luci. He loved it. I think his favorite part was the coral reef. However, Brandon may have diminished the thrill a bit by constantly sanitizing his hands.
On the day before Cohen's birthday we had a little family party to celebrate with family and Brandon's.
Cohen is starting to get the hang of opening presents. He got a lot of nice things from his family. Thanks guys!
This is about all that happened in the classic "child has first birthday cake and gets it all over himself." The kid does not like sweets. I can tell you for certain that this trait does not come from his mother. Maybe all the healthy homemade baby food is paying off? I'm sure like most things, this will be a short phase. 
I put up pictures of his first 12 months. So crazy how fast it goes.
