10 months

Logan's Grandma Wood sent him this place-mat and it happened to come on his 10-month birthday. Thanks Grandma!

Here's what Logan has been up to:
*Cheesing for the camera
*Waving (we went to ward choir and I was holding him while the director was leading and he looked up at her and started waving to her.)
*Giving Kisses (but only on his time-table not when asked! The other day I got some baby-food out of the cupboard and asked him if he wanted some tomato-beef and he promptly gave me a kiss)
*Opening and closing everything (especially the wipes, it is becoming impossible to change his diaper because he wants to look at everything within his reach)
*Getting into everything (purses, boxes, laundry baskets, etc.)
*Taking things off shelves
*Banging everything with toys or his hands and listening to the different sounds they make
*Throwing his toys, especially when he is in the stroller
*Eating everything that is put on his tray and getting frustrated while being fed, because I can never get it into his mouth fast enough
*Improving his drinking-from-a-cup skills, although he often gets a little too excited
*Ear-piercing screaming, which has developed just this week. We are hoping it is a little trick he will soon get bored of, before our eardrums burst.
*Everything electrical--keyboard, remotes, and especially phones.

His gentile laid-back baby stage has definitely come to a close and his toddler stage is wide open. He knows what he wants and often gets frustrated when he can't have it.

We took him out in the snow on Monday and he had a smile from ear to ear the entire time, although he had to squint his eyes because it was so bright outside!

Ear-piercing screams is a bit of an understatment. The windows rattle and my ears ring afterwards. I hope the neighbors don't call the police thinking that some screaming child is being killed. If anything's being killed it's my hearing.

*lol* What a great list! He's just such a cute kid! I love it when they start to really explore and learn about the world around them, although it can make things like diaper changes nearly impossible! Oh, and don't worry, the screaming will taper off eventually, especially since no one's encouraging it. For a while there Sarah and Ben had screaming contests every chance they got. Even though it's mostly stopped now, I swear my ears are still ringing!

Logan is the cutest thing ever! I just miss you guys all to DEATH! I know I say this every time, but he's growing up sooo fast, I can't even keep up with it! That's too bad about the screaming, I'm definitely not looking forward to that! I love you all!

And check out the look on his face when he's holding that paper towel roll or whatever it is. It's pretty mischevious. :)

Those pictures are adorable. I can't believe some of the faces he is making. You can tell he has personality. He is just going to be a charmer when he grows up.
He is pretty much one of the cutest kids I have ever seen! So much fun! I have no doubt that you absolutely LOVE being a stay at home mom!

A Couple of Updates

I haven't been very involved in the online world very much in the recent months. I haven't been feeling very well. I had mostly rejoined the feeling-better society and getting excited for the ultrasound which we had yesterday on January 15th. Yes, I am Pregnant!!! 20 weeks to be exact and I had gone to 4 doctors appointments and heard the heartbeat several times. Josh and I went to the ultrasound anxious to find out the gender, because we are planners of course. I got situated and the person doing the ultrasound put the wand on my belly and I looked up at the monitor and saw two circles. (I wish we had a picture of that, but we don't have that exact one) In my mind I said, "that is two heads." She said, "Oh, did you guys know you were having twins?" Josh turned, because he had not seen the two heads on the monitor yet and said, "Uh, no". And she said, "Well, you are!" Surprise. A few moments later we found out it was two girls. Wowza.

Josh Had a Birthday, Shout Hooray!

I am so lucky to have these two guys in my life! I hope you had a good birthday yesterday, Josh!

1st Half-Birthday

Logan sits up all by himself now, but he uses his hands like a little tripod for support. He is also able to roll from his back to his stomach, but he really doesn't like his stomach, so he has probably only rolled that way less than 10 times. Mostly when we tease him with toys or other such things. He is really laid back and happy and I just keep thinking I am the luckiest mom in the world! So Logan turned 6 months old on Sunday. The only real "celebration" we had was feeding him cereal for the first time. We did go to the park, but it took us too long to get ready, so on the stroller-ride over he fell asleep. Josh and I had a little picnic anyway. He did go to the Doctor yesterday and Dr. Clayton said he is doing just great. He said Logan is teething, which I thought, but still no teeth have poked up. He got his shots and he doesn't have to get anymore until his is one year! I was, of course, concerned about his weight gain, but Dr. Clayton told me not to w
