Eating Firsts

I recently made brownies from scratch and allowed Logan to eat one of the beaters. It took him a little while to figure out how to do it but he eventually did. Over the weekend, we got corn from a local farm. Logan helped Ben husk it. Logan thought that it was a game to see how much of the husk he could throw and not make it into the bag. After I cooked it, it was time to figure out how to eat it.

Mowing with Daddy

As I have mentioned, Logan loves to be outside. Well I left Ben and Logan at home one Saturday while I went to do a Pampered Chef Show. Ben had mentioned that he would probably try to mow the grass while I was gone. When I got back from my show, Ben told me that he had something to show me. Here is Logan ready to mow the grass.

Ben said that when he tried to take the headphones off, Logan got very upset. He also almost fell off the tractor trying to get the head phones. (Side note, the tractor was not on or moving).

Bread Night

Every Sunday night, we go to Panera and get all of their end of day bread. We bring it back to our house and wrap it and then our friend June distributes it to some of her neighbors and also to some senior centers. Logan always enjoys bread night, because he gets to eat some as well. Here are some pictures of him enjoying a baguette. Also, one recent Sunday night June brought her grandson Chris and a friend over. While we wrapped bread, the teens played the Wii. Logan also got to "play" the Wii.

Meeting Isabella

As you can tell, while we were in PA we had a lot to do in a short period of time. One of the main things that we wanted to make sure that we got to do while we were in was to meet our newest niece Isabella. She was unable to attend Logan's birthday, because she is still in the hospital. However, she continues to gain weight and get stronger each day. Thank you Gwen (and the friend who watched the boys) for making it possible for us to meet your precious little girl. We continue to remember you in our prayers!

Where is Logan???

Before we left for PA, I was gathering up some last minute things in the kitchen and Ben was getting his shower. I heard Logan go back the hall and push the bathroom door open. Then I heard Ben saying that his feet were getting cold. I went back to see what was going on and this is what I found.It always amazes the things he figures out to do.

Birthday Parties!

Logan was very fortunate this year. He got to celebrate with his friends/family in Oklahoma. Enjoying his cake.

Then we went to PA to celebrate with a lot more family. Opening presents before his party. Thank you Uncle Will, Aunt Valerie, Graham, Baby C, and Gabriella. Wanting to stick his fingers in his cake! Enjoying his cake and ice cream.Opening presents with Daddy!

First of many updates

The anticipation is over...I am going to update everyone as far as what has been going on over the last couple of weeks. Since it has gotten warm, Logan loves to be outside. However, in Oklahoma the temperature has been in the 90s, so it makes it difficult to go out during the day. We usually wait until late afternoon or evening to go out. After work one day, Ben went and picked up some plants for his garden, but also for my flower garden. Logan helped him plant the flowers.Logan got a wagon for his birthday from Grandpap and Grandma Smith. He loves when we take him for rides around the yard. Logan playing in his pool.
