Labor day = Family Day!

We spent all our 3 day weekend hanging out the 3 of us! On Labor Day we took Logan to this huge park surrounded by a lake and just let him explore and run wild! With us following behind of course. He had a great time chasing "Dinosaurs!" or "lizards" if you are a boring adult, with no sense of imigination and fun!

We got some great shots with my Hub's fancy phone!

It's never too late

Happy Birthday Dad.
Wish I would have had the chance to spend one with you.


Love,
Carly

Cute things said by a cute boy!

It seems as though Logan's vocabulary expands by the minute. I have been taking note of some of the funny/cute things he's been saying and had to share!

While helping me cook breakfast, he pushes his stool up to the counter and says, " Mom, I'm tall!"

Last week he had a bit of tummy thing and was going potty ...and well, he learned the word "diarrhea". Now whenever he thinks (which it's usually not) it's diarrhea, he yells very very loud,
"MOMMY! It's DIARRHEA!!" Which is so nice when we have guests!

A favorite that is said and done multiple times through out our day, is stripping down to nothing and running in the room yelling at the top of his lungs, "I'm naked!" Also very lovely for guests...


We are having so much fun keeping up with our smart little monster!

My wooden lifesaver

We went to Micheals this morning, I needed to grab some scrapbook materials. I was having the hardest time getting anything because Logan was shouting, "Lets go!" at the top of his lungs from the second we got in the door. Then we used the potty and on the way he spotted a water foutain, I let him have a drink and then put him in the cart. You would have thought I smacked him. He was screaming as loud as he could. I finally got him to calm down but was really considering never even finishing the album! When we walked past a $2.00 wooden doggy, he smiled and held it quietly the rest of the time in the store. Which of course was not long, c'mon I wasn't going to push my luck! I grabbed some mess free water colors to subsitute the acrylic the dog came with and away we went.

Happy ending is I got my scrapbook stuff and we ended up getting a very cool craft. We started the second we walked in the door and went till lunch. The dog is now in bed with him...he demanded such, of course!

I tried to get him to look at me but as you can see, he was deep in concentration!

I was surprised by him picking brown and black mostly, guess he wanted him to look like Em'y!

These snowboots were meant for walking

Spoiled but not rotten!

Grandma Epps found out Logan is in love with Toy Story and ever since we get packages in the mail jam packed full of Woody loot. Today we got a backpack, lunchbox, book and a woody hot wheels car! It was like Christmas for him. It was like Christmas for me watching and taking photos!

The pictures below we're taken right after he woke and the one above was a few hours later. As you can see he LOVES everything! We read the Woody book before bed tonight too. The entire time he opened everything he was saying, "Tank you!".."Tank you!" Then we called Ama Epps and he thanked her himself. He may be a tad spoiled but not a tad rotten!;)

Brothers...kinda

I had my best friend's little boy for the last week. He is almost exactly a year older then Logan. Which means they play, fight,play,fight all through the day..and night. I did the night time routine, packed his lunch for preschool and was up at 7am with them to get him ready for school. Made De-Lish breakfasts for them every morning! It got me excited for the day Logan will go to school (not soon).The boys had so much fun going to bed together and waking up together. They literally would roll out of bed and start playing. I'm sad for Logan that he went home but happy I can relax a bit.
Below are the boys playing in Logan's cool Woody bed tent Grandma and Grandpa Epps got him!

Logan can just roll out of bed now, I made his crib into a toddler bed! We love it! He hated not being able to get out. And he wanted to cuddle and lay with us. If we cuddled in our bed, he never wanted to leave. This way we read books, cuddle, say goodnight to everything and then he falls asleep. He also comes to our bed in the morning instead of crying in his crib for us to get him. Thats a major plus.=)

Half choke and half hug...thats some brother like love!
