Two Cool Dudes

Last night we baked Ghost, Cat, and Pumpkin shaped cookies. Unfortunately our cookies did not hold their shape through the baking process and we had a baking sheet cookie. We still had fun decorating and then eating them!

Weebles Wobble But They Don't Fall Down

When Landon was about 10 months old I bought this Weebles set at a consignment sale. He loved it, but had grown out of it by last fall. Until we started getting out his old toys for Logan to play with! This is now amongst his new "my favorite toys". Logan also really likes to play with the Weebles, but unfortunate for him he has a brother who won the award for the Most Hoarding in preschool! Landon will let Logan watch and sometimes let him touch a Weeble, but for the most part Logan has to find something else to play with that Landon does not like. Oh well, we'll get through it and hopefully Logan will get a chance to play sometime.

Logan is pulling up!

Logan is almost 7 months and he has started pulling up about 3 weeks ago!!! This picture was taken one night before bath. I had put Logan in the bathroom and went to his room to get his pj's ready, when I walked back around the corner and this is what I found. I called Michael to grab the camera! I'm not quite sure how ready I am for this stage! This only means that walking is that much closer, but I think Logan is ready to be able to keep up with Landon! Also to update, Logan had his 6mos checkup last week. He was 19lbs 11oz, so a big boy but not as big as Landon at that age! He's eating well and is sleeping through the night! I am very happy with the schedule that we have created and maintained pretty well :)

Panama City Beach 08

Well, we did it! We took our first trip with both boys! In the beginning we said we were just going to forgo a beach trip this year due to Logan's arrival. But as the summer began to end we decided that Logan was getting older and easier and that we needed to give it a shot! We left on a Saturday afternoon and drove to KaKa and Pops' house and then went the rest of the way on Sunday, making it an 8 day trip! And while it was not a relaxing vacation, we had a lot of fun and are so glad we did it! Landon ended up getting an ear infection on our first day there, Logan did NOT sleep at night, and Michael and I were both exhausted beyond belief! We did manage to make it out to the beach everyday and the boys had a good time. Landon was not a fan of the ocean this year, but Logan LOVED it! We took Landon on a Pirate Cruise that I highly recommend to anyone traveling to PC with kids. And Michael and I enjoyed some evenings out with just the two of us thanks to my parent's who were gracious enough to spend their evenings sitting in our condo and putting the boys to bed. We also celebrated Michael's 29th birthday while we were down there, he got a Wii and we all enjoyed playing that for the week! Now it's time to get some rest and return back to normal life!
