Early Identity Crisis

Granted, this newborn parenting thing is totally new to me, but I just assumed that kids don't go through identity crises until adolescence at the earliest. Apparently I'm dead wrong on this one. Coen is already showing some obvious signs of trying to "find himself".

Exhibit A: Coen as Chinaman. This one manifests primarily during post-feeding burping.
Exhibit B: Coen as Gangsta. I know I am out of touch with the younger generation, but these hand signals mean nothing to me.
Exhibit C: Coen as Letter H. They must be pumping old reruns of The Sesame Street into the NICU. Apparently Coen favors the letter H. Not a bad choice I guess. Or, he may be subliminally telling us, "Hey, if you wanted people to pronounce it 'Cohen', maybe you should have left the 'h' in there!". Not a chance buddy.
Exhibit D: Coen as Hippy. I knew moving to liberal Austin would be dangerous. He's already become yet another of these "Peace Out" locals. Nice peace sign, buddy.
