Weather Update

The snowmen melted the very next day.

Logan loves the swing set and his hat.

The slide has a hump in the middle and Logan often looks like he catches a little air. At the bottom he almost always lands on his tushy and laughes.

We went from snow to nice temps. Now we are back to high winds. The tulipani are all confused. The first one popped up this weekend. We have many more blooming now so look for an updated photo soon.

They look a little different than the traditional tulips in the store. They remind me of the poppies in Italy. I will say to Logan, "Look at all the tulipani!" and he will repeat me "tulipani". He is a little parrot right now. I rocked Shane and watched them outside on the swing. Tim would push Logan and count. Logan would repeat the number after Tim would say it. Watch for an updated swing photo!

St Patrick's Day Second Outfit

Here is Shane in his second green outfit. I never thought I would use all the burp cloths and bibs I had until Shane arrived. He likes to spit up. With Logan I thought bibs just covered his cute outfit. With Shane I know if I want him to wear the outfit longer than five minutes, he needs a bib.



Here is a comparison shot. There are some similarities. There are the blue blue eyes, light hair and chubby cheeks!


I started using my new camera this last week. The last three posts are with my new camera. I LOVE it! I am wondering if Logan loves it too. I started using it and he lets me take his photo. Here he is the first time I tried to shoot just him. He hammed it up. It was so much fun. I took a lot of shots but I won't bore you with them all. It is always hard for me to post photos because as a Mom I love them all. It takes me a while to pick which ones to post.

Moxie's Tasty Salad

Logan figured if Moxie ate the grass it must be tasty.

Here is the shot where we tell him not to eat the grass.

You never know what you might capture when you take your camera outside. I just wanted to get a cute shot of Lgoan riding his garbage truck. Logan is again in the phase of putting a lot of things in his mouth. It is not a fun phase especially since he can open cabinets with locks. I should have know he would be able to do this. When we put plugs in the outlets all it did was draw attention to the outlet and out the plugs came. It seems the same thing is occuring with the cabinet locks. I turned around to see Logan with the windex. I asked him how he got that and he replied "Push it". Of course we think he is a genius.

Once Moxie starts licking it is all over.

Because they told me not to...

St Patricks Day Today & 07

Here was Logan on his first St Patrick's Day.

Here is Shane sporting the same outfit on his first St Patrick's Day. Sorry, I didn't get one of the boys. I meant to and then the boys woke up.

Trucks Are Made For Riding

I bet when Grandma Keck got me this truck she didn't know it was for riding. If it has wheels, it is made for riding.

Self Shot

Just thought I might make the blog today.

Once again I am taking self shots as Shane and I are hanging out.

Randoms

Today we were supposed to have a sitter while Mommy got her hair done. Sadly the sylist called to cancel at the last minute as the sitter and her cute daughter were here. This meant Logan could not sit down and eat his breakfast. Thus, he requested one of his favorites, biscuits. So I made him some biscuits and of course gave him a big one.

Don't worry I didn't embarrass him in front of the sitter and her daughter but little boys can wear tights too. Since Italy I have often put tights on Logan under his pants in the winter to keep him warm. Today he wanted to run around in them with his old shoes. He found these shoes in Shane's closet. He outgrew them a few months ago. They were his favorite but they are two sizes too small. I guess he doesnt mind but I am thinking I better order him more in the correct size! Here he is trekking through his Thomas train wreck.

I like this shot because although not everyone is looking at me it is a realistic shot of our every day life. Shane is screaming, Tim and Logan are checking out something Logan has, and Mom is trying to take a photo. You can also spy me in the photo.

It's Still Snowing

When Dad got home it was still snowing! Dad said it was his duty to go out and make a snow man. At first Logan did not want to go out. I talked to him about it and he knew Dad was making a snow man. I asked him and he told me all about it but he still didnt want to go out. He wanted to wear his fishing hat. So he watched from the window...

I finally talked him into putting on his hat and coat and going out. The next problem was he had to have boots like Dad. Well, Logan doesn't own any boots except his rain boots. Imagine that! The last time we tried the frog rain boots he screamed - but not today!! Today he was all about them. Out he went. He was hesitant at first ... He wasn't quite sure how to walk in his rain boots or how to walk in them in the snow.

Here he is testing out walking in his boots in the snow. Soooo cute!


Yeah, a snow man!

Mr. Snow man has eyes and a nose made of Logan's plastic golf balls, Moxie's frisbie as a hat, and Logan's golf clubs as arms and a mouth.


Now Dad will teach Logan to throw snow balls at Mom.

Okay Daddy I can do it!


It's real cute at this age!

Now I shall teach you to eat snow. At first Logan wasn't so sure snow would be tasty and he wanted Dad to hold it.

Then he got the hang of it
and he liked it.

Not one snow man for you Logan but TWO! Because you are TWO!!Oh no, then he brought the snow ball into the house!

Presents From Grandma Keck!

Logan now understands presents and when a box comes he gets excited. Grandma Keck sent a box and here he is digging in!

He had soo much fun checking everything out. First he liked the lizard light best, then he liked the binoculars best, lastly he decided he liked the blob (silly putty) and really liked to say "blob". Thank you Grandma for making his day.

Here is Dad checking out all the kids loot. We read Logan the garden book that night before bed and he really liked looking at all the veggies. Hopefully soon he will look at them grow live in the garden.

Monkey see Monkey do. We had to read the tractor book right away of course! Logan loved Shane's tractor onesie, he wanted to put it on. Luckily, he was easily distracted from all the cool stuff. Grandma Rules! Here Logan holds the blob, looks through the binoculars and is srrounded by the lizard light and books. Life is sweet.

Baby Gadgets Everywhere

Okay Okay here are a bunch of photos for you. I am still so in love with the cute little hands.
Logan sitting in one of the baby chairs (it is red and black) and resting his head on his bean bag chair. He is getting to be so smart and crafty. He is probably already hoping for a recliner. Oh yeah and he appears to giving his Dad a loving kick.

Here is Logan enjoying all the baby gadgets around the house again. He is sitting in a baby cahir batting at what I call the cat toy on it.

Logan does not like to be given small bites of things anymore. He will repeat over and over and over "big one, big one" until you relent and give over the big one. Of course "big one" sounds something like "biggun".


Well since it is a snow day and we were cooped up inside I decided to snap some photos. Ha ha ha who am I kidding? I snap photos almost every day. Any way here are some cute ones.

I brought out yet another baby gadget today. Now that Shane is looking all around I thought he might enjoy it. Big brother checked it out first to make sure it was safe and fun.

Here is Shane enjoying a baby gadget. He is just now starting to look at things and enjoy them.
A close up of Mr. Big Cheeks. It is weird to have a nearly bald baby. His hair is coming back pretty slow. So far it looks light brown. He definitely has a lighter complexion than Logan.



Here is Shane checking out all the neat things on his swing while he rides. He is just now starting to look around while he swings.
