The new dad, whomade his return to the Bravo clubhouseearlier this week following 13 days of paternity leave, wrapped up the last of this week’sWatch What Happens Liveepisodes on Thursday.
Ahead of the new episode,guest-starringReba McEntireandMorris Chestnut, Cohen, 50, looked back on the eventful past few days and said that the highlight of his return had nothing to do with the show, and everything to do with his newest bundle of joy.
“First week back at work wraps up tonight,” he captioned thesweet snap on Instagram. In the photo, Benjamin snoozed on his chest while Cohen smiled up at the camera.
“My highlight was quiet time with the boy before heading to the Clubhouse,” he shared. “This is a delightful trip!”

Cohen first returned toWWHLon Sunday in an episode that aired at a “special dad time” of 10 p.m. ET — an hour earlier than his usual time slot.
“This is a few minutes after I met my son,” Cohen said of the clip, which was shot as he made eye contact with Benjamin as the newborn lay on his back. “That was obviously right in the hospital.”
Cohen also took time to thank fans for all their support. “So many of you have been asking about my son. I am so appreciative of all your good wishes,” he said. “Thank you from the bottom of my heart.”
“I had been hoping that he would have a full head of hair, and he really overdelivered,” the Bravo personality teased. “That was the first thing you see, the head of hair coming out. And I was amazed.”
After Cohen “cut the umbilical cord” himself, doctors cleaned Benjamin off and brought him over to the new dad,who then went skin-to-skin withhis newborn for the first time.
“He was so alert for the first two hours. His eyes were wide open. He didn’t cry; he was just calm,” Cohen recalled to PEOPLE. “I kind of have no words for it.”
