The Bed Hogs and the Zoo

For a few months now our son Ethan has decided that at a certain time it's time to come and sleep with mommy and daddy. It started at 3:30am and went up in increments of a half hour or so and now we are at 6am. That's when he's decided it time for us to come and get him!! We are not parents who condone their children sleeping in their bed but if it's just for a couple hours in the morning we are OK with that! The only problem is that even though he's not all that big yet...he takes up a lot of room. Below is a picture of how he sleeps...

And he likes to be touching both mommy and daddy's face so we usually get a few hits in the face before he finds us and then leaves his hand there. He is such a cuddler and we really do cherish all of these moments as we know they have to grow up at some point and won't want to do these type of things anymore. This morning when Ethan awoke at 6am, Cohen (who usually sleeps through everything until 7 or 8am) decided he wanted to come in our room too so here is a photo of both boys (They had just woken up)...

I love you Cohen and Ethan.

Yesterday, we went with our neighbors to the Columbus Zoo. We knew there was a good chance it would rain but decided to go anyways. We had got free tickets so we figured why not? It was pretty good weather for the first hour or so that we were there but then it started to rain. The boys didn't seem to mind and Ethan fell asleep in the carrier on daddy and Cohen slept a bit in the stroller. They were actually interested in seeing some of the animals like the elephants. I can't wait until they understand more and get really excited about stuff like that. Anyways, Josh and I and the boys decided to leave after about 2 or 3 hours of being there. It's just not as fun when it's raining. We didn't get many pictures, just one of daddy holding a sleeping Ethan and one of Cohen who had just woken up.
