This is a fun age!


We dont know what is yet to come and we are enjoying every moment, but this age is fun! Logan seems to be taking things in. He seems something new and he finds ways to discover what it is and does and of course the tried and true, how it tastes. He is a watcher and always has to see and know what is going on. Hes very nosy when we go anywhere and usually pays more attention to other people when we go out to eat, or to the store. He used to say mamamam and dadada and blablabla but then he started to crawl. Once he became mobile, everything else took a back seat. He started by getting on his knees, to rocking, to a one 2 foot long crawl in one day. 2 days later, he was doing circles around the house. As soon as he could crawl, he could sit up on his own. About a week after that he could pull up onto any object that would allow it. Now he is lifting his legs as if to climb up objects. Gates are up after finding him on the 2 second step on his way to the third one. He is now staring to let go of thing, although he instantly falls. I give it a week. Now that he is has mastered crawling, he is back to speaking. He has no words besides the normal baby babbling but we are getting there. He is getting a very good attitude and can throw his toys (sometimes far!) when he is mad. His toys though, are not the source of fun for the time being. Kitchen tools, my purse and its content, the dogs... I put him in front of his toys and he books it in the opposite direction. Put him back, and repeat. But he giggles, and plays, and hugs and kisses (or sucks on my nose...), and smiles and loves. I love him!

Saturday, someone had a tiny rash so we gave him a bath and let him have some naked time. That red blanket then got washed because in the 20 mins we let him go naked, he peed. Of course.


Let me tell you about our mornings. 6:03 today. usually before 7 has become our "normal" Matt got up with him this morning because I was up many many times during the night to feed him (Growth spurt?!?! NOOOOO!!). So matt gave him to me at 7:30 when he left for work. Hyper kid. He crashed before he even got his 9am breakfast. 


He has been able to blow raspberries and fart sounds with his mouth forever (6months?) now. But for some reason, he has just found the entertaining ability of his tongue as an object in his mouth and not just a noise maker. Maybe that will help our speaking abilities?
