Happy 2 months, Logan!

2 months already! It's gone by so fast! We've had a blast so far! He has gotten so big! Ady was so tiny and stayed little for so long that seeing Logan gain weight like he is just blows my mind! He is such a happy baby. He smiles all the time. Just hearing our voices will make him smile. He is beginning to laugh and it's the cutest thing. Big sister Ady can get the biggest smiles out of him! He loves her so much already! He is such an easy going baby!

At your 6 week checkup Dr said you were doing perfect and not to change a thing!

What Logan is up to:



  • Eating 4 ounces every 2-3 hours.

  • Eating half formula/half breastmilk. Tomorrow will be the last of the breastmilk that we have saved then it'll be all formula

  • Go to bed around 9pm, wake up between 2 and 3am, eat then right back to sleep until 6am, eat again, then right back to sleep until about 9am

  • You try to lift your head up when sitting in your bouncy chair!

  • We put you in your bumbo and you seem to really like it! You can watch Ady better!

  • Still HATE tummy time

  • Have found your hands recently

  • Started to drool

  • Size 1 diapers

  • 0-3 month clothes

  • Bath time is still iffy! Sometimes you like it sometimes you can't wait to be done!

  • You have started to 'Hoot' and it's the cutest thing!

  • You LOVE to be rocked!

  • You got your first set of shots and did great! It scared Ady to hear you cry like that and she wanted to be right up on the table with you.

  • You weighed 12 pounds 5 ounces. You have gained another pound in just 2 weeks!



The sweetest smile!




You have the craziest hair! Everybody comments on it!




Logan,

We love you so much! You are such a happy baby and bring so much joy to our lives. Your big sister Ady adores you and never wants to be away from you. Just ask Aunt Jessi!! Jax can not wait for you to get a little bigger so he has someone more on his level! Reese always has to know where Logan is! You have the best cousins and we look forward to what you guys have in store for us! You are growing so fast and I can already tell you will be independent just like Ady! Happy 2 months!

It Is Well.....

Tonight at our Lenten Supper at church our Pastor Craig sang It is Well. I don't know what version he sang (he also played the guitar). Diana our awesome piano player accompanied him. This song really spoke to me tonight. I got on You Tube and saw that Kutless has a version. I really like Kutless. We even have this CD. Please go here and watch the video and follow the lyrics. I have been having a really hard time emotionally dealing with Cody's accident. Next week it will be 1 year since it happened. Since the day it happened my prayers have had something in them having to do with it. Whether it be for healing or praising my God everyday for the miracle He has given to us. Lately my prayers have been first to praise Him. I will always Thank the Lord for giving Cody back to us. But I cannot get the images out of my head of Cody laying there so lifeless. I still have a hurt in my heart. I know I shouldn't. I am so thankful for everything that has come about since that day. Even though this has been the worst thing I have ever dealt with so many people came to know our Jesus. I am now closer to him as well. I pray everyday for God to lay peace on my heart. Monday, memories of the hospital came flooding back to me and I instantly found myself in prayer. I really honestly believe that the Lord has not let me forget those hard moments simply because it only brings me closer to Him when I do get lost in the memories. Listening to Craig sing this song spoke mountains to me tonight. It is well with my soul. I know that no matter how hard it is to relive those 3 and a half weeks it is well with my soul. "Though Satan should buffet, though trials should come, Let this blest assurance control, That Christ has regarded my helpless estate, And hath shed His own blood for my soul." This may not make any sense when reading. I just wrote the words as they came to my heart. If you read this please say a prayer for me, say a prayer for Cody, say a prayer for my Mom, and say a prayer for the whole family. These next few days are going to be hard. I know it will be for me. But with your prayers for peace and comfort we can make it. We are blessed beyond measures and have so much to be thankful for. Our God is Awesome, how can you deny Him.? It Is Well With My Soul.....
