Congratulations to the new mommy and daddy and to BIG BROTHER Elias!

Hard times...




Month one to two were definitely the hardest with Logan. His personality is so different from Aidan's when he was a baby and it was a lot of adjusting for everyone. The first month of his life he pretty much slept all the time so when he woke up a bit that second month it was more challenging. By the end of the 2nd month we all got to know each other a bit better and things were getting easier.

Three things I did discover that Logan loved during this time...

1) Tummy time. Most kids hate tummy time. This kids loves it. In fact if he is fussy I can put him on his boppy on his tummy and he is totally content.

2) Baths. I give Logan a bath every night. He calms down as soon as he hears the water running and it helps create a nighttime routine for us.

3) Black and white. I think Logan is going to be a minimalist. He loves anything black and white and simple. We have a mirror that he uses for tummy time and even on that he will find and stare at the black and white border over anything else.

Whoops....
4) Boobs. The man loves to eat. From Day 1 he has been a good eater which is much different then my experience with Aidan. I have a feeling Logan will be very close with his Abuela as he grows up because she is the master family cook!

And as evidence he loves to eat his 2 month stats...
Weight: 10lbs 7oz
Height: 21.5"

I'm a big kid now

I have a love/hate relationship with one of my husbands personality traits. He is a big kid. I love watching him with Aidan. He has so much fun and Aidan adores all the goofy things daddy does. The hate part comes in on WoW (enough said :)). While I was tending to Logan this night Aidan and daddy were upstairs finger painting. They had so much fun and Aidan created quite the masterpiece.


Long time no blog...

So it has been quite some time since I last posted. Mainly it was because Blogger thought I was spam and locked me out for a bit. Now that has been resolved I need to catch up. A lot has happened in the past few months.

I am going to try and go back a bit in time to catch up so please excuse the mass of posts.
