1. He really loves to stick his tongue out.
2. -
3. Happy baby.

Today is a good day. Boring but good. We do nothing for New Years & that apparently means we are already an old married couple according to like 3 of my friend. We dont like to party.

1. Logan's outfit for today. It was so nice outside.

Today has been a very long day. Ive been up since 5am. First feeding & changing Logan, I couldn't get back to sleep after that so i read for awhile. Next thing I know its like 7am and Michael is running to the bathroom to throw up. Hes been really sick all day with a fever & generally whatever flu is going around. I feel bad for him but refuse to be around him more then 5 minutes at a time & Logan hasn't seen him all day =[.

Susie & I took Chloe & Dumple to the vet. Its a good thing we didn't end up taking all the dogs because Ban field was super busy & we were there for a long time , a very long time & i was wearing Logan - he got kind of heavy. He did seem to enjoy it though - he didn't sleep that much while we were there. Of course everyone I work with had to come see him & pay attention to me. I don't know what they are going to do when I come to work without him. We didn't get home from that till about 545.

Me & Logan were only home for about 45 mins before my mom came & got us. We went to walmart so I could buy formula & some food. Ive been living off rice & veggies - its all i really want to eat. And I'm like obsessed with raspberry tea at the moment. I just love it so. Poor Michael hasn't eaten anything at all today & he can barely keep down water or ginger ale. I feel bad for him & that I cant take better care of him but oh well Logan comes first & i don't want my poor little wolverine to get sick. When we came home Logan like passed out i had to keep waking him up to feed him & now hes asleep beside me. I need to put him to bed instead of him laying beside me.


Umm i think i shall go eat since all Ive eaten today is half a sub.

1. Michael sleeping this morning.
I swear I can only get pictures when hes sleeping.
2. Ebony this morning -
this is what I wake up to every morning
3. Logan sleeping.

Well we haven't been up to much at all since I'm still coughing.. But it does seem to be getting better & its only really bad at night. I only have a week & a day till I go back to work. I'm really excited because I miss working a lot. Logan seems to get getting on a little bit of a schedule so that makes me happy.He also slept for 4.5 hours last night so i both me and Michael got sleep! we had to change his formula because it seemed to be constipating him - he would scream when he was trying to poop and he didn't poop for 2 days. So when I called Dr. Sharpe he told me to change his formula to this stuff that's already halfway broken down so its easier to digest. I'm happy he told me parent's choice (the walmart brand) is the exact same thing that Emfamil makes because its like a 10 dollar difference. But my mom did say she saw the Emfamil stuff at Costco in a huge can for like 30 dollars- so me and Michael are gonna go check that out.


I'm very happy that Logan can finally fit into the Baby Bjorn. I love that baby carrier, it is so wonderful. Ive started carrying him around while I clean and make his bottles, he seems to really like it. He even falls asleep in it. Today I wore him ( i love the term baby wearing lol) out while I walked dumple, instead of running downstairs and hurrying dumple; we got to go on a nice long walk. Poor dumple hes so out of shape he was so ready to head home by the of it. He ran right into our bedroom & got on the dog bed he didn't even jump on the bed. When we got home Ebony ran right up to me when I sat down & proceeded to lick Logan's hand for 1o minutes, then she went and laid on the other couch. I guess Ive been replaced.



1. Took while I was walking Dumple. I want to get more baby carriers.
2. Dumple after out walk. He is passed out.

hrm

It seems I have my days & nights mixed up and Logan does not. He is currently fast asleep in the bedroom with Michael while Im sitting in the living room with the dogs - wide awake. Its time like these Im happy Im reading 2 good books. Twilight & baby 411 lol.


ah well back to reading. I could probably sleep if i didnt have this cough. boo =[

Okay Christmas

1. Logan & daddy waiting for everyone to come to Mimi's (Michael's mom) house
2. Us.
3. Logan sleeping after a long day of travel & meeting new people

We had a good but very long Christmas. First was my moms house for breakfast. She got us some beautiful glasses, a blender, Michael a book on wine since hes been wanting one, and me a gift card to get my nails done & a beautiful necklace, also she got us a $25 gift card to Fridays.

Next we to Ella's house. I'm not going to list all the things we got because it was a lot, we opened gifts from all of the family. But i am going to say I absolutely love the gift Ella made me. She painted me a ribbon person. I have been wanting one ever since I first walked into her house and saw them. I'm going to have to take a picture of it.

After Ella's we went to see Michael's aunt ( his dads sister) house. There were a lot of people there. Everyone thought Logan was so cute & good, but of course how could they not as he is very cute & good. The only thing is he wouldn't really let anyone but me or Michael hold him. I guess he doesn't like people he doesn't know or he was extremely sleepy & being passed from person to person does not make sleeping easy.

Lastly we went to my Grandma Fetta's house. I finally ate dinner there I was starving because I had only eaten a little bit at the other houses so I could eat there. Logan pretty much slept the entire time. We stopped back by my moms house to check on her since she was sick yesterday, she seems to have caught whatever I have. Also we stopped by Ella's again Michael lost his wallet & we had to find it, thankfully we did because it had $100 in it.

I am still sick. I just cant seem to kick this cold. Michael is bringing me something home, its so convenient that he works at Walgreen's now lol. Ive been in bed all day expect for feeding & changing Logan. And I haven't been holding him much because I really don't want to get him sick but he doesn't seem to mind - he is fascinated by his teddy bear today.
He somehow managed to get out of his sleep positioner and up to the teddy bear. And I'm really not that sure how he did it. He is super baby hahaha! Okay maybe not but i still think its amazing he moved that much since he never really does.

Christmas.

1.-2. taken on Christmas eve.

I'm sleepy I'll write tomorrow

A none Logan relatedpost!

Today is me & Michael's 3.5 year anniversary.

We were up till 3am just talking about it & listening to music. Also Logan was awake & i had slept all day since i was sick. I think it is hilarious that we say we don't want to get married at least not right now yet we stay up talking about how we would like our wedding to be. I think we created a whole play list for it ha ha. And here are 3 pictures for the 3 years

1. A few months after we started dating
2. Sometime around our 2ND anniversary
3 .Sept.2008

I really should be up getting things ready. We have to be at my moms at 9am. Which means i have about an hour and a half to wake Michael up, get ready, pack the diaper back for the day, get Logan changed and clothed, feed the dogs, and of course give Logan his one present we got him. Hes only 3 weeks I mean jeez he doesn't need a lot now. After my moms we are going to Ella's house, then to someone;s house on Michael's dad side of the family, and finally ending at Patricks moms house because that's where i have eaten Christmas dinner every Christmas since 6th grade, well except for my 8th grade year but i was in Oregon so yeah. Well I'm not about to change my tradition now even if it wont be a big deal like it use to.

I feel bad about leaving the dogs here. I know we could defiantly take them to my moms house & Ella's but we wont have time to bring them back to the apartment so they have to stay here. I don't think I will put dumple in his cage though, I'm just gonna pick up anything he could really chew on. Or lock them in the bedroom its not fair to them to have to stay locked up on Christmas.

Well I have to go do a bunch of stuff now. And yeah i know I mentioned Logan cant help it!

My Apartment!

I was talking to my Mamaw Lois & she mentioned that she thinks I have a nice apartment. Then I remembered I said I would take pictures & that I had taken them Monday so I figured I would post them!

As soon as you walk in & close the door:

1.St. Bernard puppy calender ( we have a calender since we cant own one.)
2. Shoes& Dumples cage. Beside his cage is dog food my work bag & a computer in the Rubbermaid container to bad it doesn't work.
3. The kitchen yes, its carpeted & that sucks.
4. Table that we never eat on. Michael had to iron his shirt for work & didn't put stuff up! And an xbox - we have 3 in the apartment at the moment.
5. The Living room. The brown couch is the dog couch.
6. The balcony - dumple loves to sit on that pink chair we cant get rid of it.
7. More of the living room. Yeah our furniture doesn't match but oh well.
8.The TV & shelves. You can see my Hello Kitty barbie!

The Hallway

1. The hallway. You can see back of my laptop lol. Oh and Ebony's potty pad.
2. I figured I would take a picture of the fridge. & my Hello Kitty toaster.

Logan's Room!

1. View from the doorway. Ebony likes that chair. You can see our Harry Potter cutout. I love his & refuse to throw him away.
2. The changing table. The picture was a gift from my mom. More Ebony in the chair.
3. The crib. He has a basket of stuffed animals in it since he doesn't sleep there yet.
4. Inside the crib.
5. Shelves. The blue dinosaur at the bottom by the crib was made by Susie & Larry. You can also see more of his stuffed animals & things. Also that chair on top was my dads when he was little.
6. Right side of the closet.
7. Left side of the closet. Yeah, he has lots of clothes.

Our bedroom,closet, & bathroom

1. View from the door way. We have a very small room but its okay we just sleep in there. And it usually looks bigger but that pack & play takes up a lot of room. Bet you cant guess which side i sleep on!
2. I figured I should take a picture of the dogs. Ebony is laying on the dog bed & dumple prefers the bed.
3. Michael's side of the closet
4. My side of the closet. Plus storage & the potty.
5. The bathroom. Probably my favorite thing about the apartment is how big the bathroom is.

And here's a picture of dumple just because. He is chewing on himself a lot and getting tons of hot spots so he has to wear his ecollar. He hates it.

Wowzers this is a long one!

1. Logan after his first real bath, he didn't like it at all.
2. Tummy time! He loves to put his butt in the air lol.
3. & of course he loves to sleep

I have been sick for the past few days so I haven't been updating. I cant seem to kick this cold & its getting worse. My mom watched Logan last night because I really needed sleep & so did Michael since he has to be at work so early - though not as early as he did with Michael's. It wouldn't matter if he got up to tend to Logan anyways, if i hear Logan cry I'm wide awake. We are going to Ella's Christmas eve party tonight & then we will go pick up Logan. I hope we aren't out very late tonight. Tomorrow is going to be a very long day. But I am very excited since its Logan's first Christmas!

That would be Michael before his he went to work on Monday. He has to be dressed up everyday. I wish i had waited till he put on his tie but oh well I will take another one day. He always looks so nice when hes dressed up I like it. Although this pictures makes him look fatter then he really is. I will take some pictures tonight or something. He is really liking Walgreens & that makes me happy.

I got pictures from my step mom Lucy today showing the amount of snow they have. Its crazy i wish it would snow here even just a little bit. I don't really like snow that much but its pretty & a little is okay but if we had what they have i think i would do crazy. OH and here are some of the pictures!

1. Their house.
2. Lucy!
3. Daddy!
4. & Cody the cutest Shetland sheepdog ever.

I really can't wait to go back & visit them again ( even though I have no idea when that will be). I wish we lived closer cause Id really like Logan to be around them. Having Logan made me realize i really wish I could have spent more time with them than just summers. They both mean so much to me & I don't think they realize it then again i like never talk to them so how would they know. I really need to call them more often.

I use to be close to a lot of people in my family & now I'm really not I don't really talk to anyone that often except for me Mamaw Lois. I love that lady so much & she means so much to me she just doesnt know. Shes not just my grandmother she really is one of my best friends. I can talk to her about anything. I know we spend at least 45 minutes talking whenever we talk and its at least once a week if not more. I don't know what i would do without these weekly calls. I look forward them.

I don't know when my Mamaw Janis, Joyce, & Brenda will get to come up here but I cannot wait to see them. I cant wait to hug Brenda. I know it will be awhile before they are able to come up but I just cant wait. I need to call them more often too. I also need to call my Papaw Booher more often. I'm just a big slacker when it comes to calling people

Then there is Michael's family. I love them so much. There has never been a moment I have not felt like part of the family. Ella ( his mommy)is such a wonderful person. Susie(his aunt) is another wonderful person she has helped me a lot the last few weeks. Then of course there are Jenny & Julia( his sister & niece), John,Kristen,Noah,& Alanah( his brother, sisterin law, nephew, & niece) they all have always been so nice to me & even though i don't see them very often (cept for Julia) i love them all. And of course Larry & Curtis (Susie's husband & Ella's boyfriend) Ive always liked Larry he is just that kind of person plus he has a mastiff named Cesar & if you own a mastiff i love you because i love those dogs! Curtis i can honestly say i did not like for a long time, but now I can say i really do like him which i never thought would happen. He really is a nice guy & he loves his dog so i cant hate him besides without him i would never be able to bring dumple & ebony over to Ella's well they wouldn't be allowed on the couch lol. Brandy I don't know you very well but I would really like to get know you better because you seem like a really wonderful person so you & Sage & Milo should really come over one day while I'm still not working.

And lastly there is my mom & Patrick. They have done so much for me & Michael the last year. They got us all the baby furniture & most of the things we needed for Logan. My mom loves to bring us food which i will never complain about because she is actually a good cook now that she does it. While me & my mom have never been that close I really think Logan has helped our relationship & now I understand that whole mother love thing she use to talk about.


Blah, jeez this was a long entry & if you read all of it good for you!!! & I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas!

Quick post before dinner

1. Me - I'm getting back down to my old weight rather quickly.
2. Ebony missed him and wouldn't stop trying to lick him
3. He's laying in bed with me while Michael cooks dinner
4. Dumple missed him a lot too.

Like I said I'm waiting for Michael to finish cooking dinner. He's finally fixing me some spaghetti, Ive been asking for it for weeks so I'm happy hes getting around to making it. Today was a nice day, slept till 12 & it was lovely. Then we spent a few hours at my moms house looking at random clothes she had brought for Logan. She caught a really good sale and got over $50 of clothes for only 26 dollars so she stocked up. A lot of them are so cute. Next we went to Michael's aunt Susies I wish i would have gotten pictures there but oh well maybe next time i will remember to. Lastly we went to Patrick's moms house so she could finally meet Logan. She was so happy to see him I'm really happy we took him over there. Well I'm going to go and bother Michael =].
