One armed baby

Since Cohen came home from the hospital at 2.5 days old, he has slept with a crocheted blanket my cousin Rita made for him. Every nap and every bedtime, that blanket is covering Cohen in some capacity.


Christian's new fear is that Cohen will get an appendage caught in one of the holes and it will remain stuck like that all night, cutting off circulation and Cohen will have to have said appendage amputated. And if you think I'm kidding, I'm not.


Man, I hope he's not right. I'd have to eat my words AND live with a one armed baby.


In the meantime, here's a photo my friend Tara took of her daughter, Charlotte, with Cohen. She is almost 4 months older than him and about 20 lbs heavier than my lightweight. I'm not calling her obese or anything. She's just a big girl and Cohen is a little man. Good thing his head is the same size as hers. Cohen was a little apprehensive about lying beside her as last time this happened, Charlotte reached over and took a chunk out of Cohen's head behind his ear. Their first fight.

  1. 20lbs... lol... Charolette is so light, what on earth are you taking about?! haha... I guess I need more face time with Cohen to grasp his true weight, but part of me reallyreally doubts the whole 20lb difference! haha (;
