The month of July

The month of July was a busy one. Even if we stayed home, it was busy. Logan doesn't stop moving long enough for me to do much. His naps were all out of whack, leading to me showering and grabbing breakfast. Not long enough to eat the breakfast though. Many days, I was thankful for being able to stay at home while my child destroys the house. Other days, I was looking for jobs so that I could get away from my destroyed house for a few hours a day. But in the end, things got picked up, put back together, and hidden under the couch. Logan has a preference for his dad most of the time. Which also gives me extra time during the waking hours. "He wanted you! So you get to keep him!". But that only allows some laundry to be done and maybe dinner to be made. I can not have the dishwasher down while Logan is awake or it just becomes a jungle gym. No matter where he is in the house, if the gate at the bottom of the stairs is open, he knows it! He enjoys going up the stairs. He is now just starting to figure out he can go down backwards. But he doesn't like going backwards because then he cant see where hes going. The month of July was busy with kids birthday parties, friend meet ups, wedding showers, weddings, moving friends and lots of shopping for presents for those events! Logan is so amazing with his his go with the flow attitude. 

His friend Jaxens first birthday party! The boys had a blast playing in the little pool and all the mud that was created from the pool water. Logan also ate the pasta salad (not allergic to eggs! Although probably not the best time to try it out). Logan and Jaxen had fun ridding in Jaxens new wagon.

I knew this shelf needed to be moved but Matt insisted on it being in the living room. Thats fine dear, they are your books. The nap after this picture was taken, was spent moving the bookshelf and books upstairs. And yes, that one pink book is actually mine.

Nap times are generally easy if Logan is tired. But if hes overtired, they suck. Matt is so much better at nap time than me, but I must do it when im home and no Matt. We bring him into the spare room and lay with him. If hes ready, it takes minutes. If hes not, it sucks

He LOVES jumping on the couch (or bed). He is also way to wiggly to dress most of the time. I can usually get a diaper on him but clothes may take a while. I do socks and shoes when he is confined to the car seat.

Birthday lunch with Karin and Grampa!

Grandma wanted a bike seat for her bike, and the size one helmit fit perfectly. Logan loved sitting there contently enjoying the ride around the block (many times around the block!). 

He needed a hair cut, his wings were almost ready to help him take off. He sat pretty still (considering it was nap time and he was exhausted already) but Grandma Bard had the same idea as the boys. She surprised us at the door. Logan could hear her chatting it up (not Joyce!) with her hairdresser across the room and kept trying to find her again.
