Laughing

I took this about a week ago after Logan woke up from a nap. Watching it makes me smile.

December 8th

Logan has started rolling all over! He even gets on all fours and rocks back and forth! Let the baby proofing begin...

How can I pick just one???

To mark the occasion of Logan turning 6 months old we took lots of pictures!

Peas

Logan has been trying lots of new foods. So far we have tried: butternut squash, acorn squash, sweet potatoes, bananas and this week it is peas! Logan had yet to make the sour baby face when we tried something new until we got to peas. It was only the first bite but Keith caught his face on camera.

Logan ready to try something new.

 Yummy peas.

 After the first bite, he was ready to feed himself.

 Logan enjoys eating veggies!

Peek-a-Boo

I was in the kitchen and Logan was playing peek-a-boo. Just some cute pictures.

 Then Selby caught his eye.

 Oh, Selby.

 My beautiful baby.

 

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Logan's first Halloween was a success! The weather was perfect, the kids around the neighborhood were cute and Logan was so adorable in his monkey costume. We had a steady flow of kids for about two and a half hours and went through about 20 bags of candy! Keith invited a family over who has a baby girl that is 4 months old, Logan had a good time making a new friend. As I type this he is fast asleep in the swing, it was an eventful afternoon!

Waiting to give out candy.

Selby & Logan

Logan is very entertained by Selby and will watch him until Selby is out of sight. Selby on the other hand stays an arms length away. The place they both can come together is looking out the sliding glass door. 
This weekend the kids across the street were outside riding their bikes and running through the yards. They caught the attention of both Logan and Selby.
Here are some cute pictures...

Poo

Ok, I debated on whether or not to write about Logan's poo but I decided that those who know me well know I seem to talk about poo more than someone should probably talk about poo. Yes, this week we started veggies so I knew things were going to change put I just wasn't prepared! Logan no longer has infant dirty diapers he has baby dirty diapers. As odd as this sounds I feel sappy about it, he's growing so fast and his poo is another milestone. 

Even though I dare to talk about poo I draw the line at pictures... haha... now that would be gross! Instead I will close with pictures of my cutie pie when we were hanging out last night.

Squish Squash (dad's first blog)

So today we decided to try out a vegetable to see how Logan would react.  Our first choice, organic butternut squash from our veggie share.  After being steamed until nice and squishy we tossed it in the blender and frappé!  It was surprisingly easy and pretty quick from start to finish.  And much to our delight he took an instant liking to it.  We were expecting at least some strange looks from a "what is in my mouth" kind of moment, but instead, we got the usual blank "feed me" stare.  Which we suppose is much better than the "oh my god, get this away from me!" scream and subsequent freak out, which we haven't had yet, and fear.  So, our calender is marked, today Logan has his first taste of vegetables, and he continues to grow rapidly, without any signs of stopping.

Pumpkin Patch

I never had much of a desire to go to a Pumpkin Patch until Logan came along. We went on a Friday evening while Jessie, Keith's sister, was visiting. The weather was beautiful and the farm wasn't crowded at all. 
This farm not only had pumpkins but it had a corn maze! I was a little worried about getting lost in the maze with Logan but once we started I realized it wasn't that intense!
Here's where we started the maze. Note Jessie's enthusiasm.

Keith took some pictures as we walked the maze.

 Keith is always looking for a great photo opportunity.

We also shopped the pumpkins...

 
...and took the necessary ' baby with pumpkin' pictures! These make me laugh out loud, I don't think Logan liked the feel of the hay on the ground! 

 Then we took some family pictures...

Next year Logan will be chasing the chickens!
