Baby No More!

Logan had his first haircut. It has been driving Gordon crazy, and I have been reluctant to let the baby hair go. We suprised him on his dayoff. Here are some pictures before the cut.

Parker and I loved his little curls. When we were in Arizona for Thanksgiving he took Sam and Logan in a store and people don't him his baby girl was adorable. He wants people to know Logan is a boy. I told him it's his fault he gave me all boys and I'm just working with what I got. Logan is cute enough to be a girl! Now pretty boy is more fitting.

He sat in the chair like a big boy. He didn't cry or fidget. He was as good as gold.

Sweet boy, say goodbye to your golden locks. I did put a curl in a ziplock. If I ever get around to scrapbooking his baby years i'll put it in there.

This is the after cut. Lots shorter, she finger cut it instead of using clippers. I'm not ready for the buzz cut yet.

Mommy's angel! Sad to see the baby hair go becuase it makes them loose their baby look. Since he is my last baby boy I wanted to hold onto it as long as I could.

A proud Daddy to have a "son" again.

Logan 6 1/2 months

We started feeding Logan cereal and slowly introducing baby feeds at the end of 5 months. I was not in a hurry to start this phase but he was. He has been trying to grab food off our plates since 4 1/2 months. Sam is helping to feed. He is a little too helpful sometimes. He "shared" his tater to with Logan yesterday. Logan gummed it to bits and I had a mild panic attack. Oh sweeet Sam!!

I'm not sure how much went in his mouth.

The Dr. said he needs more calories since he dropped to the 5% for weight. So when it isn't chaotic he gets cereal and baby food twice a day then I'll nurse and give him a bottle at night.

Blessing photos take 2

I thought I would go Have Logan's blessing photos done and get a super cute one to hang on the wall with his brothers blessing pictures. Well I didn't like any of them so we raced home and I did my own photo shoot. I have a nice camera I can do it, but it is harder doing it solo. Once I pose him and get the camera he's rolled. I do need a sleeping angel picture. He likes to show off he baby blues in the pictures. The first one might be the one for the wall

I had to do a hat picture because it reminded me of Parker's blessing photo.

When Logan smiles he reminds me of Dylan.

Please stop growing!

Photo shoot time this session actually turned out cute. I fed him and waited till he fell asleep. I'm slowly getting up to DaNae's level of photos. But I did think these turned out cute. He is getting too big too fast. He's 3 months old now and I have had to put away some outfits. I think our wear time isn't long after wearing some of the same outfits as 3 older brothers. They've been washed 1 too many times.
He is my sweet angel boy!! He was meant to be in our family.

Nursing!

Do you think he's had enough ninnie-pie? I went to Motherhood to buy a new nursing bra and FYI the smallest size is 34B. What about those smaller women? Maybe they think a couple extra nursing pads will fill it up. I had the girl measure me so I could have the right size. Since, according to Oprah the majority of women wear the wrong bra size. Well she forwarned me she was new, she took my measurements then couldn't find the quick conversion chart so she called her boss. The boss said according to the measurments I was a 34D. I chuckled and said I would never fill a D cup, even when my milk first came in and I was engorged I couldn't fill a D cup. I walked out with a 34 B and went to Target for nursing pads!!
I like nursing 90% of the time. Let's be Honest that first month is a rough one. With Parker they didn't have cute nursing covers or even ugly ones for that matter. You just used a receiving blanket. I remember Parker and I were both under the blanket trying to figure it out. It was comical and now after 4 babies I can nurse, cook dinner, and talk on the phone all at the same time. It is rough at first every 2 1/2 hours it seems that's all you do at first is nurse. I just get dressed, eat and it's time again. Since it seems all I do is nurse the first 2 months I have finished 3 books. I like to nurse and read at the same time. It is also my excuse to get away for a few minutes or out of dinner clean-up.

But, I wouldn't trade in those precious moments just the two of us for anything. Just me and him for just a few minutes. I love the milky face when he's done and the satisfied, relaxed look when he's had enough.

I LOVE YOU LOGAN!

Logan's Blessing Day

Dressed in white and looking like an angel was Logan. Gordon gave him his name and blessing and he did a great job. The circle was small this time since only David and Grandpa Davenport were in Utah. We've been spoiled with the other 3 boys having all their aunts and uncles close by.
Gordon was nervous but he gave a beautiful blessing and he bore his testimony also.

It's not easy getting all the boys to smile or even look the same direction. As the boys like to say "you get what you get and don't throw a fit."

Gordon and I appreciated having his sister Sonya and her boyfriend Luke at church to support us for Logan's blessing. Gordon asked how she felt being "Mormon" for an hour. It meant a lot to him to have her come.

Thanks Mom and Dad, Grandma Shirley, David and Tara, Sonya and Luke for coming down for Logan's special day! We love you!

We are grateful to have such a wonderful family and are blessed to kn0w that we have an eternal family. These 4 boys are precious and I wouldn't trade them for the world (most days)!
