First of all- when we first got Cohen we tried laying him on his stomach and he could barely lift his head off the floor an inch and was immediately screaming because he hated it! He was like a bobble head when you held him up on your hip and didn't have a clue how to roll over. Also, we tried him in the sitting position and his legs didn't even want to bend that way.
Now - in the last 3 to 4 weeks since we have had custody, we have been working with him a little each day and we are proud to announce that he can now lay on his stomach and hold his head way high, roll from his stomach to his back,
and sit up for rather long periods of time. You have to still be by him because he will get side tracked and tip over every so often. And last night he cut his first tooth through!! (Notice the drool dripping off his chin! Anyone who has met him will verify that he is constantly chewing and drooling till he is drenched!) How many more to go? :)
Now all we need to work on is showing him that he has legs & to put pressure on them and that they are very useful if he would just try!!! The last picture is Richie's mom Connie, holding him at a family bday party at the park. I might be a little partial but isn't he cute!!!

You will be amazed at the strides he will make in the next few months. Totally mind blowing! He's going to grow like mad so don't buy to many clothes in one size because he's going to catch up growth wise too!
