What Will He Come Up With Next?

Here is a recent conversation I had with Logan.

Logan: Mommy, I'm really excited to see our baby.

Me: Me, too!

Logan: Daddy, three.

Oh, the things they say! This is a big change after he decided he would have to pack up and go to Granny and Pa's house when the baby is born! I never know what he's thinking.

Our Baby Girl

I am now halfway through this pregnancy! YAY!!! I can't believe how fast it has actually gone by this time. Logan does keep me pretty busy, so I just hope the second half goes as quickly as the first. When I think of how many months I still have left to go it seems like a long time, but when I think about all that I have to do in those months, I think it's going to fly by! Here are a few of the ulstrasound pics I got at my last appointment. I was 20 weeks and 4 days. The ultrasound tech told us the baby is measuring 20 weeks and 2 days, so she's right on schedule. Everything looked good and she seems to be perfect and healthy. I just can't wait for her to get here! :-)

My Sharp Dressed Men

Here are Logan and Daddy all dressed up and ready for church. Logan looks so handsome and grown up in his new suit Grandma made for him!

Decorating the Tree

Here's Logan helping daddy put the ornaments on the tree. He had a great time helping decorate the tree this year!

Logan decided he would also decorate his rocking chair. I wish I would have gotten a picture of the finished product. The chair was completely covered with tinsel.

After the day's hard work, he just couldn't stay awake long enough to finish his dinner. Poor guy.

Logan is going to be a...

I just had to post these pictures...mostly for myself so I will have them when I look back at all this in a few years. Although he has no idea what is about to enter his world, I know that Logan will be a GREAT big brother!

Happy Halloween

Halloween this year was very exciting for Logan. It was the first year that he actually knew what was going on and that he would get candy. Friday morning he picked up his trick-or-treat bucket and said, "Come on, Mommy. Let's go get candy!" He couldn't wait for Saturday night. And, I must admit, I was pretty excited too, just seeing his excitement. He got to pick out what he wanted to be this year and he decided to be a "police cop." He wanted to be a "police cop" like his Uncle Casey. It's a bit hard to get good pictures of him these days because he's too busy acting silly and goofing off. But, here are some of the pictures I did manage to get of him.
