Oh, Coco bear.

One week from tomorrow Jaxon will be starting preschool, so we are soaking in every last minute of summer that we can!  Tyler's Mom and siblings came for a visit last weekend (which we thoroughly enjoyed!) and the summer heat has finally hit with full vengeance... of course, after pools are closed during the week.  Sweet!

Anyway.

I feel like I've probably mentioned a time or two on my blog how much different Jaxon and Cohen are in just about every way possible.  The way they look, their personalities, their likes and dislikes, and I could continue for days.

Instead of boring you with paragraph upon paragraph of their differences, I will sum it up with one simple story.

Every day when we sit down at the table to eat, Jaxon asks for a napkin to put underneath his plate or bowl.  He doesn't like messes.

Today at lunch, he asked for one, and I had to break the bad news that we were actually out of napkins.  I know, the horror!  He proceeded to cry and tell me a few different reasons WHY he needed one, so I found him a washcloth to use instead.  That temporarily satisfied him, but I have a feeling dinner time tonight will be a completely different story.

Also during today's lunch, we were talking about how Cohen had left his Mr. Monkey out in the yard earlier in the day while he was playing outside.  Jaxon was telling him that it wasn't a good idea to do that, because now it would be dirty, and what if birds would have stolen his monkey?!

Cohen's response?  "I kill da birds with my hands."

I laughed out loud, Jaxon was appalled, and we continued eating.

A couple minutes later, Cohen starts laughing and I look up to find he has shoved a macaroni noodle UP his nose.  I quickly tell him to take it out, give him a lecture on how it could get stuck up there, and helloooo that's disgusting.

He laughs his evil laugh, BLOWS IT OUT OF HIS NOSE.... and eats it.

Complete opposites in every way possible.
