Leaves are Falling all Around

I finally went outside with Logan to play in the leaves. I love actually watching leaves fall to the ground from the tree. There is nothing better than leaves to play in.

Also, Logan has created a new contraction. He says all the time "I amn't this or I amn't that" He must have just created it and instead of combining I'm he combines am and not. So funny.

Yesterday he was watching part of Mulan and when he was telling Josh later he said, "Yeah I just love that Move-on."

And he takes pictures of pretty much everything. Sometime I will have to post the best ones, they usually end up being the "real" pictures of our life, half eaten applesauce jars, crumbs on the table, and me first thing in the morning. We'll see if there are any that are approved.

Happy Halloween!

To Josh

Josh,

Hope you have the best birthday ever. The big 29. We appreciate all you do for us.

Love,

The Luckiests

2 and 1/2

My son turned 2 and 1/2 last month. Holy cow. He is such a little man with such a creative mind. His favorite thing to do these days is puzzles. It was the only way we made it through parts of conference. He will do the same puzzle over and over. We have been going to the library weekly to change out his options and after doing most of the puzzles a couple of times he is an expert. I love all the new things he is able to do. He is also great at memory and it is wonderful to be able to play games with him! I never realize how fast he is growing up. I taught classes a lot the last 6 weeks, but I finally have a break! One night I got home and Josh said Logan had sorted the clean silverware into the drawer. Really? How come I never thought of asking him to do that. Josh is better at expecting Logan to do things. Now his job is to sort the silverware and not only does he do pretty well, but it gives me a chance to put away the rest of the dishes while he is busy sorting.

He says funny things and I need to start keeping track of them. If I call, "Logan" he will come and say, "Mom, what you need me for?" And he will spin in circles and then say, "I'm getting busy." instead of dizzy. He loves being a part of the conversation and adding to it whenever he can. And lately I have realized more and more how lucky I have to have him and his little personality as my son.

Lucky Me!

I hope Beth doesn't mind if I post her pictures. I have become the most horrible picture taker as of late, meaning I haven't taken more than a couple of pictures in about the last month.

I was able to go to Keith Urban's concert a couple of weeks ago with my Sisters-in-law and it was amazing. He is such a great performer!


I loved the screens behind the band. Gorgeous.

I post this picture because I was inches away from Keith Urban and this pic is proof.

He is very talented and oh so fun to see perform live.

Days with Logan

We sure do miss being able to go swimming, but we certainly are enjoying these . . .
