Pumpkin Patch

Yesterday was SO nice-82 degrees in October! We took advantage of the lovely weather by taking a trip to the pumpkin patch. We were shocked at how busy our little local Windsor patch was-but I think the fact that we only had to pay $1.50 for our pumpkin helps (the same size was $6.99 at King Soopers!) Tiernan could have cared less about the pumpkins...he just wanted to push the wheelbarrow and play on the equipment. He's all boy I guess!

We just had to steer the cart-he pushed it for us and got mad when we'd stop to look at pumpkins.

I tried to get a cute picture with a straw hat...you can tell he was really excited about it.

He loved the wheels!

Going for a ride

We had to get some ice cream on the way home...you can tell he enjoyed it!

Baby Cozzens is a....

I had my 20 week ultrasound on Monday and we found out that we are having another boy! We are so excited and I'm preparing myself for many years of Legos and trucks. :) Everything looked great although my placenta was a little low lying so I'll have to do another ultrasound in a couple of months to make sure that it's moved out of the way. We're saying lots of prayers that it does move otherwise I'll have to have a c-section. In any case, here are pictures of our cute little boy...

Not sure why there is so much space between these pictures. Anyway, here is the picture where we could tell he is a boy.

Snow in October!

It has been so snowy and cold the past couple of days so I decided to be brave and bundle up Tiernan so he could go out and play in it. He wasn't so sure about it yet-whenever he'd try to touch it, he'd look at his hands and then shake them to get the snow off. Guess I'd better invest in some gloves! :)

18 Month Dr. Visit

No pictures today, just updates...
I took Tiernan to the Dr. on Monday and he is 34 inches long (90%) and weighs 27 lbs., 2 oz. (74%.) The last time we went in a couple of weeks ago to get tested for the flu and strep he was so traumatized...and somehow I think he remembered because he completely freaked out just when I set him on the scale to weigh him! So you can imagine what happened next when the Dr. tried to listen to his heart, check his ears, his "boyparts", etc., etc. I was also a little traumatized by having to hold his arms and head still. I was amazed at how strong he was...I was concerned I'd drop him on the floor. But we survived, and now hopefully we don't have to go in again for 6 months. Wahoo!
PS He seems to now be just fine after testing positive for swine flu. I'm a huge fan of Tamaflu-he seemed better the very next day after taking it although he did have some congestion/runny nose up until a few days ago.
