As I’ve mentioned before, Cohen is a completely different baby than Carter. Though by the grace of God, they are both unbelievably perfect with no real behavioral issues or whatnot (my mom is still trying to figure out how we won the lotto twice!). Another big difference between the boys has to do with making noise. Carter was an incredibly silent baby. Even his crying was rather weak and not real loud. He never ever “cooed” or made baby sounds…he literally went from doing nothing, to signing to speaking. Cohen on the other hand is much much much more vocal. As soon as his adjusted age reached the developmental milestone where cooing should take place, Cohen fell right in line and started making noise. At first it was the sweet, ooohs and ahhhs, and some squeals when he was super happy. Then it progressed into quick , sharp screeches as if to say “Hey, you! Pay attention to me!” (Maybe it’s a second born thing??). And now he just "talks" (more like yells) at whoever will listen…or to no one at all. He is quite content just hearing himself.
While my mom, Cohen and I were in Seattle visiting Auntie Libby at college (tear, my baby sister is in college…with a ‘big sis’ in her sorority…) Cohen spent a good 45 minutes on the floor of our hotel room rolling around and yelling at us just like the video. It is so fun to listen to, well for about the first 10 minutes…
