The Birthday Party

The day went way too fast! Thank you to all of our family and friends for spending Logan's special day with us! Logan is so lucky to have all of you in his life. He is so loved.

I took the kids to Burger King on Logan's birthday (last Wed) to play and have lunch. Logan got this crown and he actually loves wearing it, so he wore it all day at his party! He was king for the day!

Logan's party theme was cars because they are one of his favorite things to play with. He likes to make car sounds and even pretends that some foods are cars when he is eating....it's so cute.
My brother made these cute cars for the wall to match his cake...he is so creative!Logan, enjoying his cake! (oh, and yes, he can drink out of juice boxes now!)The day was so busy that we didn't even get a chance to open his gifts until late on Saturday...so if you left before we got to it, here is what he got. Thank you!!! He enjoyed playing with all of these toys today and even wore some of the clothes today as well. Like I said before...he is such a lucky little boy!

Walking in the grass!

Logan walked over 10 steps all at once in the grass yesterday! It was so awesome to see him getting around outside for the first time! I could tell by his clapping and smiles that he is going to love being outside this summer...I am going to be a busy woman. :)

Look how far he got before he sat down! (I was a little late with the camera.)

Baby Pushups

No Aubrey, that's not how you crawl! But that is impressive.
Aubrey has been trying all sorts of ways to move and this is the latest. For some reason she thinks that this will work. It's a new one for me.

Happy Birthday Logan!

My sweet boy is 2 today! I love you Logan!

Mr. Talented

Logan has added a new instrument to his repertoire recently...the harmonica! I have been meaning to get this on video and I will continue to try. He plays it SO well and insists on playing it while walking around. He also has a little dance that he does while standing and playing.

Happy 2nd Birthday Ruby!

Today, DSFN had our monthly playdate and it also happened to be Ruby's birthday! Logan got a chance to play with all of his friends and also celebrate with Ruby and her family.

My buddy and me

These two are so cute together lately. They currently both like cars!
Logan has had to start sharing lately so when Aubrey is by one of his toys he literally moves (pushes) her to the side so that he can be by that toy. Thankfully, Aubrey just goes with the flow and doesn't seem to mind. She also always has the biggest smiles for Logan and Devin. I can tell that they are her favorite people in the world.

Daddy...

Did I mention that Logan now signs Dad, but not Mom. Also, Aubrey says dada all day long! I know she is just babbling, but Dale has to make a big deal out of it every time. It just figures!

Drumline Solo by Matt (DS in the news)

As most of you probably know, one of Logan's favorite things to do is play his drums. So when a friend of mine told me about this local story, it really hit me close to my heart. To see Logan do this someday would be incredible! I also have to say though that it makes me sad at the same time. It makes me wish that Logan could dream as big as to be an equal part of the band like all the other students...but I will dream for him today, that he will someday be a part of our high school band if that is what he wishes to do.
This video starts off with the drumline doing there thing, but pay attention as is goes on as Matt gets his chance to perform. Also, the story from our paper can be read here.

Logan Walking!

This little stinker went from crawling to walking everywhere in a matter of 24 hours. He even pivots around to change directions and can stop and start as he goes along. His PT had to evaluate his skills a couple of weeks ago and she put him at an 11 month old level, but after seening him in action yesterday, she said that eval should say 12-15 months now! She was VERY impressed with the huge changes in just the last two weeks! In the video, he is walking without his orthotics. With them on, he does walk with his feet a bit closer together, but I know he would rather not have them on. He does tend to trip over his shoes when they are on.
