Longhorn Magoo is 2 months old today!

Our little Longhorn Magoo had his 2 month appointment this morning. Poor little guy he ended up with 5 vaccines....1 oral and 4 shots. Poor baby, he screamed bloody murder! We felt so bad for him. He did pretty good during the day today. He slept a lot but he also had some major bouts of fussiness. We could tell he was uncomfortable so we gave him some Tylenol to help ease the pain. He also had a nice, long warm bath this evening, which he seemed to really enjoy until he peed and pooped in the water! That seems to happen during every bath time though.

We took a few 2 month pictures of Longhorn Magoo. They're included for your viewing pleasure. He's still working on his Hook 'Em Horns sign and learning The Eyes of Texas....in time he'll get it and make his parents proud!

So until next time....or 'till Gabriel blows his horn...



Hook 'Em Horns....even if it is upside down! Hey, he tried!!

Uh-oh, I think we might be losing him!

Yep, we're losing him!

Criminy, we lost him!

Amber Rose

Amber Rose...she's quite the cat. She's little Magoo's older feline sister. She'll be 8 years old this May. She really loves her family but despises many of the strangers that come into her house. I know many of my family members can attest to that. She's hissed at, swatted at, and has even bitten a few of them! (Sorry y'all). My sister is afraid of her and my brother calls her the 'devil cat'. She's really not that bad. In fact, she can be quite the sweetheart especially where her daddy is concerned. She loves to take care of him and even groom him from time to time.



Amber Rose also loves little Magoo. We were worried she'd be mean and would resent him when he came home. It took a little while for her to come around (she was just scared of him) but she eventually did and now loves to hang out with the little guy. They're so sweet together!



See, Amber's not a devil cat. She just looks like one! ;)

Future Fireman J.Cohen

We took Jackson by Fire Station 7 (Jerry's old station) for a visit. Jackson decided to dress the part. We think he looks mighty handsome! :) The last picture is an all too familiar face in the Cohen household.

Long Legs Magoo is 8 weeks old today!

Wow, how fast time flies! Jackson is getting bigger and bigger and it's been so much fun watching his progress. He's become so much more alert now. He likes to look around and take in the sites. He stares intently at the mirrors above his swing and his bouncy seat and watches the colorful lights that turn on & off above his rainforest playmat.

He's starting to smile when we talk to him and he sometimes likes to hold a conversation with us. Oh and our hearts melt when he coos. It's just so darn cute! Long Legs Magoo is probably around 13 pounds now. That's not official. I got on the scale with him and he added around 13 pounds to my weight! ;) And he's getting longer! He can't fit into too many of his jammies anymore...they're much too short for his growing legs. Thus the name...Long Legs Magoo (dubbed by his Papi). Oh and the all important night time sleep...it's getting so much better! For the past week, he's been sleeping 4-5 hours between feeds! Woo Hoo for sleep! On one of our nights alone (while Jerry worked) Jackson slept for a 6 hour stretch. Needless to say, I was a happy camper the next morning!! Now maybe Long Legs Magoo can work on getting used to sleeping in his crib. We'll see! Until next time...
