I'm still trying to get a photo of Logan and Braydon, but that is proving to be difficult! Braydon is at the age where he thinks it's funny to make faces when I try to get a picture.

Well I finally got around to taking Logan's 3 month photos. I might be a little bit bias but I think he is so cute! We call him our Gerber baby!

Logan in his bouncy!
Logan hasn't liked his bouncy seat ever since we tried to put him in it. Normally all he ever wants is to be held. Here lately though he has started to enjoy being in his seat. This has been helpful so much! Now I can shower and dry my hair!!

Logan 2 months
Wow Logan is 2 months already! Time really does fly by. Yesterday he turned 2 months and today he had his Doctor appointment. He weighs 12 lbs. and is 23 1/2" tall. That puts him in the 50% for weight and 73% for height. He had to get 3 shots and one oral vaccine. Also the Doctor put him on Zantac because he has been doing a lot of spitting up and it seems to really be bothering him. Some of the things he is doing now:
On Friday Logan has to go to the Pediatric Surgeon for a growth on his belly button. This is nothing to really worry about. According to his Doctor his belly button didn't heal properly and the little bubble that is on the outside will just be burned off. I'm told it won't hurt him so I'm not too worried.
- smiling a lot
- laughing
- doesn't like when his big brother throws a tantrum
- lifting head a little
- sleeping about 6 to 7 hours at night

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.

Kindergarten
Today was a very emotional day for me. I registered Braydon for kindergarten! It's hard to believe that in September of this year I'll be sending my little boy off to school. He was so excited he wanted to start school there today!

Playroom
When we moved into our house I was so excited because we had a den that could be turned into a playroom for Braydon. This excitement quickly went away when I learned how a child views "clean" and how an adult views "clean". I organized the room and even gave him bins with pictures to put things away himself. He thought the bins were supposed to be used to dumb stuff out and carry around whatever he wanted in them. The lucky little boy also has a nice train table in his room, but he is more interested in taking the tracks off and creating his own layout throughout the house. I have cleaned up many of the messes in the room and even thrown toys away because he doesn't clean up. Today however, I don't know if its because of the pregnancy hormones or what, but I decided that the room needs to go away!
What drew me to this conclusion? Well he took a step stool out to reach a tall shelf and take something down. All I could see was the bookcase falling over and him getting hurt. Plus he hasn't cleaned the room in a week, and his version of cleaning is throwing everything in the toybox. He then cries when he can't find what he wants, because it's not in the labeled bins! He also has two bags of toys which he "lost" because he didn't clean up. These bags have been out of the room for almost a month and he doesn't seem to care. This makes me think he has way too many toys!
Our home owners association is hosting a garage sale in a few weeks. This seems like the perfect time to sell these toys that he doesn't seem to even notice are gone. Plus with his birthday in a few weeks, and the baby due to arrive soon I think a good purge is necessary. I'm also vowing not to buy him a single toy for his birthday!
