2 Months Old

I can not believe our little princess is 2 months old...(really almost 11 weeks now)

stats:
12 lbs 7 oz
23 inch's long

She is so strong, we had to have some blood drawn this last week and the lady doing it just kept saying, "She is so strong...this is difficult"

She is so smiley these days!!
She is in 6 month clothes now :)
She has the best little personality
She is so patient
She is sleeping 8 hrs at night!!!
She is in her own room now, which is not really a big deal as it is 3 feet from our room :)

We love her so much and are so excited to continue to learn about her personality and watch her grow. She loves Logan so much and I am so excited that they love each other!!!

Happy Father's Day

I am so grateful that my children have the greatest daddy!! He loves them and loves to go on adventures with them!

I am amazed how much he loves them and how hard he is on himself about the kid of father he is. He wants to be the best daddy. He is such a hard worker and wants nothing more then to support his family!! I am so grateful for all he does for our family!!

Love you babe!!

My sweet Logie Bear

Logan turned 3 on June 6th. He is the sweetest boy ever. On the morning of his birthday he woke up and said...I am I 3 now? I said yes (of course he was not actually 3 until 1:11) and he smiled so big and said "That makes me so happy" This little man is amazing!

36 inches tall

He knows all of his letters by site and knows the sound they make and what word they are for. He can count to 20
He is potty trained (has been sense March 12th and through the night)
He is a master negotiator (how about I play for 3 minutes and then I will pick up the toys)
He is just so smart!!
He loves to sing!!
He loves to read
He loves to be outside
He loves to be a big brother, I have been so amazed how much he loves Addison.
He is so funny, he loves to make us laugh.
He is so thoughtful, he is always worried about others feelings and making sure we are all happy!

I can not imagine my life without him. He has blessed my life so much it is amazing. I see this amazing person growing inside him! I feel so blessed that the Lord trusted me with such an amazing little man to teach me. He has made me a better person! I can not even find all the words to describe my love for him!! He is a part of me!!

Love you little man!

Love is...

So last night we were driving home from dinner and Addison was screaming like crazy...she gets mad while in the car more often then not these days. Poor Logan just plugs his little ears and says mama it is too loud for my ears, can you put the pacifier in her mouth. Which I thought was so sweet that he recognized there was a solution to his problem and he was asking for help. When I told my mom about this she said most kids would throw something at the baby or get upset. But last night I saw how much a big brother can love a little sister!
So last night while she was screaming he sweetly said to me, "mama I think she might be hungry, do you have a bottle and I will feed her."
I said "Yes buddy that would be awesome, are you sure you want to do that?" I handed him the bottle and he got it right in her mouth and she stopped screaming. The look on his face was amazing. He knew that he had done it, he on his own had stopped the crying. I told him how proud I was of him and my sweet boy in response said "Yeah you are proud of me because I am a big helper"...LOVE!
So when she was done he took the bottle out and she started crying again (because it is more that she is mad then she is hungry) and he started to cry and said mama she is crying at me. The poor little man thought she was upset at him! So I comforted him and told him that she was just tired of being in the car and she has no other way to talk to us right now but one day she will be able to use her words to tell us what she wants or needs. He then told me he was worried about her because she was sad.
I am so amazed by this sweet little boy, pretty much everyday. What kind of love and understanding to you have to have to see someone else having a hard time that is affecting you and you want to help them. As adults I often think we get so caught up in what our problem is that is someone is ruining our ride home we get mad, maybe say mean things, or throw something at them to try and get them to stop. Instead of thinking, they must have something going on, what can I do to help so we can all be happy! That is love, that is pure unadulterated love. So when it says in the Bible that we should be like little children, I believe this is what Christ meant! So my goal going forward is to be be like my sweet Logan, to see the other person as a friend, someone that I may be able to help, someone that I can love!
