Bathing beauty!






Bath time is one of Aaron's favorite times of the day.  He loves to 'talk' while he's in the bathtub and is starting to splash around and think that is kind of funny!  Here are some pictures of our bathing beauty!

I love to play!

Aaron loves to play with his toys.... and these are some of his favorites!  He likes to look at his handsome face in the mirror, and Connor loves to join him!  Connor enjoys trying to put his fingers in Aaron's eyes, nose, and mouth, as well as crawling over top of him.  Aaron generally just watches him, laughing and smiling!  They have become fast friends!  Aaron is reaching out for toys now and occasionally will get ahold of one and try to take it to his mouth.  His hands are still his favorite toy and he loves to chew on this thumbs all the time!  He is drooling like crazy, so we're thinking that a tooth might be on it's way?!

More big pics!






Because I'm new to this blog thing, I didn't realize that I could make the pictures so big!  Going to add a few of the others again, in BIG size!  Hope you enjoy looking at them as much as we do!

More pictures!





Aaron is 12 weeks old!






Aaron took his first trip to Fort Dodge, Iowa to meet the rest of the family and attend his baby shower this past week.  We had a great time and he was a big hit!  He loved watching his cousins all run around!

He's growing and changing so much that it's really hard to believe that 12 short weeks ago, he was a newborn!  Aaron had his first professional photos taken also, so we'll share some of them here.  They turned out great- thanks to Aunt Amy for her help and to Nanny for watching Brett and Claire so that Amy could help me!  

Aaron is now sleeping almost all the way through the night- he usually goes to sleep at about 8:30 pm and gets up between 4:30 and 5:30 am for a bottle and then goes right back to sleep until around 6:30 or 7:30.  We're pretty pleased with that!  Aaron started rolling from his back to his stomach this past week as well, so now we REALLY can't leave him unattended anywhere except on the floor or in his crib.  I went in to find him sleeping on his tummy this morning, so I guess now he gets to decide on his sleeping position!  He can often be found with his entire legs sticking out between the slats of his crib, which is a bit scary! 

Thanks for checking in on us!  Love Always-  Tim, Ann, & Aaron Coenen
