Nathaniel Michael Cohen was born November 19, 2002, at 11:13 AM (EST). At birth, he was 8 lbs 5 ozs (that's 3.767 kg for those of you using metric) and 21 inches long. He was born with a head full of dark brown hair and he had slate blue eyes. We're told that his eyes will become their "normal" color by the time he's 9 months old. Similarly, he may not have his regular hair just yet, although we can't tell.

Update: Well, he's now 9 months old. The eyes haven't changed color, so it looks (fingers crossed) like he's going to be brown-haired and blue-eyed. Go fig... As for size, he's now over 25 lbs 10 ozs and taller than 31.5 inches. He's a big kid...

Note: I've tried to keep the pictures down to size so they'll look reasonable in-line, but you may suffer some on a slower dial-up. When I add pictures, they'll probably go at the top, but I'll try to track when pictures are from.

Enjoying a day with sunshine and green grass

In the immortal words of George Jetson, "Jane, get me off this crazy thing!" But, really, he enjoyed it once it was moving.

The first time we ate real food	Sitting on Daddy's shoulders - this managed to generate his first actual giggle, which was a very strange thing to hear
