Minnesota- Hanging out with Dan's Family

We had a lot of fun during our time in Minnesota. It went by very quickly, and it was very exhausting! Here are some pictures from our time spent with Dan's family!

Playing with his new toy from Grandma and Grandpa! He was obsessed with chewing on the string and dragging around the helicopter!

I told you! He held that string tightly!  :)

Cohen loved hangin' out with Uncle Tom and cousin, Cooper!

Warming up to Cooper! Cooper better watch out at Christmas, Cohen may be chasing him!

Playing with Great Aunt Brigitte

Doug decided to join in on the fun, too!

Staring each other down!

Swimming Lessons

Cohen started swimming lessons last week. His lessons are on Saturday morning at the gym I go to.  It is nice because they do the lessons in the Therapy pool, which is pretty warm. His class is ages 8-24 or 35 months. I can't quite remember, but he was one of the youngest in the class. In his first class they practiced kicking, swimming for a toy, sang songs, practiced getting in and out of the pool and learned to blow bubbles in the water. It was all dads and their sons in the pool, until a woman came in late with her son.  All boys! Crazy. He did such a good job, and we are excited to take him again tomorrow! 

Waiting for his cue to get into the pool....3...2...1...

 

Swimming to the toy!

Hi Mom!

He wasn't a fan of laying on his back and kicking.

All done..time to get out!

Love,

Katie

Why do we buy toys?

I started video taping Cohen when he was lounging around playing with the giant pixie stick. He then proceded to play with the lid of his "toy bin" for almost 7 minutes. I would love to know what he was thinking. He does enjoy his toys, but I thought this was kind of funny. The videos arenot very exciting...it is just him playing in his own little world... :)

Love,

Katie
