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.

We made the nice list!

Logan's first Christmas and he slept through most of the present opening. We gave his presents to the boys to open. Don't you want to pinch his cheeks he's so dang cute. My Christmas baby!

This is the aftemath of the present destruction. We tried to go one by one and after each one put wrappers in trash bag. It doesn't look like it helped. We had a great Christmas! Parker did say after the 3rd clothing present "enough clothes where's the toys?" I think we had a good mix of toys and clothes. If Logan wasn't napping he was grabbing and sucking on whatever was in his reach.

He just couldn't hold out the whole time!

This is the before the destruction happened. Oh the excitement!

This year we did something different and had the boys wait on the stairs before they could see their Santa presents. Santa put the stockings in the basement this year because the boys we're trying to be sneaky and "catch" him. Parker woke up at 3am and came into our bedroom saying Santa ate the cookies, drank the milk and took the stockings but didn't leave any presents. "I'm on the naughty list." I couldn't resist saying "guess you better try harder next year."

All the boys ended up on the nice list by the skin of their teeth, but they made it. Santa even wished them a Merry Christmas!

What happened in November?

Not sure where November went I realized a week into December that I haven't updated since Halloween. So, I am going to do a recap of what happened in November because it is now time for Christmas. I did a couple photo shoots of Logan. He is so sweet to take photos. He is laughing more and gets distracted by the boys when nursing. Wants to know what is going on. He likes to sleep with his hand by his face. He has discovered that his hands taste great and sucks on them all the time. I have stopped swaddling for this reason.

He is now loving bath time. It will be nice when he can sit up and I can bath Sam and him together.

We had a fort, movie and popcorn night (they each have to have their own bowl).

I had my 32nd birthday this month and took a photo of my biggest fans. After the cake and ice cream Gordon said "I forgot to take pictures, oops."

Parker and Dylan did wrestling for the first and last time. We thought we would try it and see but they didn't really like it. We weren't all that pleased with the program either. The tournament was a lot of work. They were exhausted after losing. They both were pinned after a good fight.

I love how Dylan is smiling like it is the funnest thing in the world a big dog pile.

The boys loved the weekly flag football game with Dad. We don't have flags so we impervised and used socks. Days after playing Sam still wanted to wear his "flags" in his pockets. Yes, we went to the store wearing Dad's sock in his pocket. It was too cute. He'd say "Fag pease Mama"

Happy Halloween!

Transformers...robots in disguise. Autobots vs. Decepticons Who will win?

I want to get a toddler transformer one for Logan to wear. Wouldn't that be funny? The kicker is I bought an adult Optimus Prime on sale last year for Gordon and he said he wouldn't wear it so I took it back. He wished he had it this year!

Cute Logan's first Halloween! He'll help me pass out candy and I'll eat his share.

Batman wins! Sam will trick or treat as Batman because it fits him better. We definately get our money's worth out of costumes with 4 boys.

Parker is so sweet with his little pumpkin.

Sleepy boys!

Sam is the funniest at night. He now lets Logan be in "his" crib and he is sleeping in his toddler bed. He now has freedom at night to get out and fall asleep wherever. I have found him behind the rocker or his latest is pulling down the changing pad and sleeping on it. It's like hide n' seek everynight when we go in and check on him.
The boys like to put their fit in the pocket underneath th pillow to use as blankets.

Half on half off whatever you're young your back won't hurt yet. I do like having the Nemo pillow. I tell him to "lay down on Nemo" when he tries to get down.

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.
