*you have become quite the little climber these days. Climbing on EVERYTHING!

As you get older the joy we have in raising you just becomes so much greater! You are a blessing-- sweet, sweet, wonderful blessing and we are so thankful for you! Our continued prayer is that you will become strong and confident knowing you are wonderfully made! We love you Logan James!

Splash Park


I live for the weekends, I mean we have our Daddy home and it's all fun and relaxing! Especially since we have had fairly open weekends lately taking full advantage of the outdoors!!


My boys having fun



Logan riding by himself... I love his "Lil Hunter" hat, Thanks Aubrey & Ramsey!


Taking time to smile for Mom!



 


So Big!


Hello Everyone down there!




Daddy had to stop and have a little fun too!


We love wheels....





To say the least we had lots of fun at the splash park.  Of course the water wasn't on, too cold, but it was a fun place to run around and explore!

Much love,

JD, Mar, & Logan

This boy has got a laugh.... and happy feet!

New Chapter & Bubbles

Now then, where did we leave off....

We decided to just open a new email account to start this blog, I refuse to stop posting pictures! Ha!  Hopefully it will hold lots of pictures and memories because this is it folks.  With the help of my gracious, sweet friend, Kathryn, she has made this blog SO cute, fresh, and new! I just love it! To catch up from a few weeks ago when all this mess started! 
The weather has been absolutely beautiful here so Logan and I have taken advantage of it and enjoyed many days outside! 


Playing with our bubbles!

"I wonder how this thing works??"

Do i eat it?.... Noooo...

Well, Mom tells me I have to "blow" on it... must still go in my mouth.
I love this!

Trying to catch the bubbles...


sweet boy.

Sitting in the big boy chair.

Hi Mom.

Much love,

Mickey Mouse Clubhouse

Lately... our afternoons look a little like this....






Mom has been needing 20 minutes to shower everyday this week and Mickey Mouse Clubhouse to the rescue! We do the hot dog dance and song, learn our numbers and letters, and he loves watching it! So there is my bad habit this week, letting the little man watch a show.  



A new one this week as well is corn on the cob... 


Boy does he LOVE It! 


After he gets done taking a bite... it's "Yum, Yum.."  

Much love, 

JD, Mar, & Logan

Whitehouse Firehouse

So a while back we had a really fun and creative playdate.  Some of us met at the Whitehouse Firehouse and got to tour the fire engine, see all their equipment, the kids got to put on some of the helmets and such.  So much fun! They even played the sirens, which caused a few crying kids, but mostly fun!







The rest of that day we spent at home, due to our battery dying in the parking lot and the firemen had to come to the rescue.  Thank the Lord for that, but really guys did 4 of you have to come out and did you really have to use the BIG truck to jump my car.  I mean I wasn't embarrassed, but was it REALLY necessary to draw attention.  Thank you for your help though.  




We had this ice chest here for Logan's birthday party and after seeing this little man so excited to have climbed up there by himself.  It was immediately moved. 


But, really how cute it he?! 


Then the roar....haha! Love this boy!
