Welcome Logan!

Logan Gregory Hughes was born on May 13, 2014 at 10:29am. He weighed 9lbs. even and was 21" long.


At first he was an extremely relaxed and calm little boy. He waited until late the first night to show his true colors and really knows how to use those lungs!

Braydon is adjusting to being a big brother and seems to really love Logan. Even though he is scared to hold him because he thinks he will break him, he always wants to kiss and hug him!


We are adjusting to being a family of four! The first week has been pretty easy, but with Chris going back to work next week I'm a little scared to be alone with two boys all day! Plus next week Braydon finishes school! Luckily we have family coming in over the course of the next few weeks so that will help!

Braydon 5th Birthday and Doctor Appointment

Yesterday my little boy turned 5 years old! I really don't know where the time has gone, he can't really be this old, can he? It seems like just yesterday he was turning 3. We had his birthday party on Saturday and he had a blast. He kept changing his mind about the theme, but settled on a Star Wars theme.


He had his friends come and they played on his bouncy house and fought with the homemade light sabers I made. We gave them pizza and cake and they all had a blast, and the weather was wonderful!

On his actual birthday he had to go to school, but they celebrated there too. He brought cupcakes and apple juice. The teacher gave him a birthday crown and everyone sang Happy Birthday to him. We also let him pick where he wanted to go to dinner. He choose BJ's Brewhouse and loved that he got a birthday dessert!

Today he had his 5 year old physical and also a physical for school. He weighs 49lbs. and is 44 3/4 tall (3' 8" 3/4). They did a vision and hearing check. This child has bat like hearing so don't ever let him fool you! He ended up getting two shots and was really brave about it. Afterwards I took him to McDonald's as a reward for being so good. We do have to go back to complete some more stuff for school and get a another shot, but no hurry.
