The Joy of Motherhood!!

Just typing the words to the title of this post brought me to tears. How do you put in words how much you love your child?! Just looking at Logan, awake or asleep brings the biggest smile to my face. It is like I just can't get enough of him. I think my favorite part about being a mom is that I am finally the one that gets to comfort the child...because I AM THE MOM!! I love that when he gets scared I can pick him up and he feels comfort. I felt that more today than ever because he had his first shots. He cried so hard but then I got to pick him up and he stopped. I love that when he is tired and fussy I can hold him and he will calm down and fall asleep, granted that is probably because I give him what he wants....MILKA MILK! I love that when I sing our made up songs he smiles and laughs. My favorite song that we sing is one that Scott made up. I came in the room one day and Scott was singing these words to the 99 bottles of beer on the wall tune........Logan Logan Logan, Logan the popsicle. We left him in the sun too long and now he's a popsicle stick!!! Try singing it...its fun!
I have so much more appreciation for moms...especially mine. I can't tell you how great of a mom I have. I hope that I can be half the mom that she was and is. I wish I could remember her rocking me to sleep and comforting me as an infant because I am sure I just loved it. I do remember the comfort she has given me as a young child and as an adult and I have to say I couldn't have made it through life with out her. I am so grateful that my kids get to have a grandma like my mom and grandma Pat. Logan is a lucky little boy. He won't understand just how much grandma Pat loves him until he is old enough to understand that she wants a web cam to see his little face as much as possible.

New Experiences

I just thought I would list a few things we are getting to experience with Logan at 10 weeks old

1. Smiley time. Whether it is 4 in the morning or 8 at night we see a little smile looking our way!

2. Poopy diapers that go all the way up to his shoulders, then his head as I attempt to take his onsie off and then of course his feet because he loves to kick himself while getting a diaper change.

3. Drool. It is more like bubbles than drool.

4. Tummy time! He now turns his head a millions times with out me even enticing him.

5. Little noises that melt your heart even though they are so tiny.

6. Having a child who is in the 10% percentile for weight but eats like he is in the 95% percentile.

7. Watching Logan learn how to stick his whole fist in his mouth while attempting to suck his thumb.

8. Passed out milk drunk Logan......as you can see!!!

One day when I have time I will actually write something....for now you just get PICTURES!

Yes it is actually cold enough here in Northern Florida for this outfit. It was 20 degrees here this morning. Granted it is now 50ish but it was cold! This is Logan concentrating on his birdies that rotate above him in his swing.

Here he is crashed out after a good long milka milk (that is what we call his food) feeding!!

This is one of my favorite church outfits. He looks like a little man!
The next pictures are just some of my other favorite outfits he has worn.

I guess Logan didn't want to let go of his outfit he wore yesterday.

Here is our newest band! David, Kaitlyn, Scott and Logan. Really its just David and Scott playing the instruments. I have to say they are quite entertaining.
Cozy dad, Logan and Blackie! They took a good long nap while I got some house work done.

Me and Logan taking a nap. Well he was taking a nap.
Logan was pretty comfy with Kaitlyn!
