January was a month of changes and new routines! Cohen has done great...probably better than his mom and dad :) It's a different routine to get you and someone else ready to go in the morning. Chris and I have a pretty good strategy though. He takes care of Cohen on his parents day and I get Cohen ready on my mom's day. So far it's worked out really well.
Take a look at what Cohen has done this month:
* kicks all the time
* loves to see Mommy after work
* loves to stand up while holding onto someones hands
* Sits up with support (1/6/09)
* Flew home from Kauai~ slept the whole way (thank goodness)
* Cohen stayed with G-ma and G-pa Butler & G-ma Rathbun while I went back to work 1/2 time (1/5/09)
* 1st night without Cohen (spent night at G-ma Rathbun's)
* turned 5 months
* 1/20/09 Inauguration of Obama (Cohen was at G-ma Rathbun's house)
* Stayed with Aunt Michelle all day (1/21/09)
* Stayed at G-ma & G-pa Butler all night (we went to DDHS ski bash)
* sit up unsupported (1/25/09)
* Went to Joy and Jason's wedding (he was a perfect angel)1/30
* Went to Kristi's baby shower for Milo (1/31) "all smiles"
Cohen has figured out that he can roll over to reach for his toys...It is so fun to watch him. His little wheels are always turning. Enjoy
On January 5th I returned to work!!! It felt so good to be back in action doing what I love. I really missed my kids and loved meeting my new first graders. Lucky for me...I get to have my cake and eat it too. For the remainder of the year I get to work 1/2 time and Cohen gets to spend time with his Grandparents and his Aunt Michelle. Every Monday and Friday he gets to see G-ma & G-pa Butler, Tuesday & Thursday he sees G-ma Rathbun and every other Wednesday he get to play with his cousins at his Aunt Michelle's. What a lucky little boy! He is so happy when I come to pick him up that it hasn't been hard to leave. I love that he is getting to know his family! Now...if we could only get him up to Seattle somehow...
