Can anybody tell me...

where the last 6 months have gone?!




I can't believe that it has been half a YEAR since this little angel of a boy entered our world. Our little Logan has brought such joy to our lives, more than either of us ever could ever have imagined. We are so grateful that God has given him to us to raise.

6 month stats:

~ 14 lbs. 11 ozs.
~ 26.5'' long

So...he's only gained 5 ozs. since our last appointment. Not quite what he should be at this point! He's dropped from the 60th percentile in weight to just under the 5th, which means he is about 2 pounds underweight from staying on his curve. We are planning to start solids this week anyways, but may be adding one nighttime feeding as well. We'll go in for a weight check in 4 weeks to see if it's helping. Gotta chunk him up a little more!

Fun things he's doing:

~ "Clapping" his feet together
~ Giggling at lots more things!
~ Flirting with anyone who will look at him when we're out
~ Kicking his legs and moving his arms like he's swimming when he's really excited (usually in the stroller or Baby Bjorn)
~ Tapping his hands when Danny is drumming on things (which is almost all the time) ;)

Some of his favorite things:
Being outside, in the stroller, the Baby Bjorn, on a blanket, or any other way you can think of!


His Daddy!


His Jumperoo (Thank you Camden for letting your buddy borrow it!!)


We love this little boy to death, and can't believe it's already been 6 months, but in a way, can't believe it's only been 6 months. Craziness. Thank you Lord for this good gift.

I don't know about the last 6 months, but I've fallen in love with him as well! Not just because he's my grandson, 'cuz I love them all, but since I get to spend more time with him than I ever did with the others, it's different! He actually recognizes me when he wakes up and I'm the face he sees instead of his mama, and he grins and it makes my heart swell! (The few weeks we went through the screaming when I had him were tough, though, I must say! I'm glad that phase passed quickly!) And I can't wait to hug him tomorrow at the barn!

I think Logan is probably pretty thankful God chose you to raise him too! :)

Camden said his bud Logan can borrow his jumperoo as long as he wants to! Just tell him not to jump off too much more weight.....and eat up!!!!! We love him too and look forward to many more milestone updates to come!
