The Car Obsession

Y'all, I had some good sleep going for me last night. It was wonderful -- one of those rare deep sleeps.

Until Cohen woke up at 5:30. Calling out for his cars. "Cars! Cars! Tractor! Cars!"

Little dude was ready to play, and it took a good amount of persuasion to get him to lay back down and sleep a little longer. But not much longer -- an definitely not long enough for me to sink back into that beautiful sleep.

Around 7, we headed downstairs, and Cohen made a bee-line straight to his newly updated playroom -- and his new stash of cars. No breakfast, no morning cup of milk -- that boy was focused on his cars. I barely got a diaper change in.

And it's been like this all morning. Cars, cars, cars. He can't get enough of them.

Our trip to the grocery store this morning? We had to use the cart with the car attached to it.

Morning nap? Didn't happen. Unless you call sitting in your crib calling for cars a nap.

Lunch? PB&J with a green car on the side.

I don't know where this obsession came from or how it started. He's had a pretty tame interest in cars for a few months now, but all of a sudden his brain has become consumed.

So, if you were looking to become Cohen's most favorite person in the whole world, the good news is that you can do so pretty easily. Just give him a car.

And for some more fun, here's a little video I took this morning. Get ready to be impressed by his pretty awesome vocabulary :)
