Day 86

I could not get a good picture of Logan wearing his "watch Logan grow" onesie. But it says 17 months. 25.4 pounds. 32 1/2 inches. The kid finally had his 15 month well baby at 17 months. When we went for a recheck yesterday I practically begged them to do the well baby since he was finally well enough to receive shots. The kid gained 1 1/2 pounds in the 6 days since he had been there!! He received a clean bill of health and we will return in 6 weeks for his 18 month well baby.

March is over!!! Where did it go? It does not seem real that Daddy has been deployed for 3 months now. So the above picture his Emma crossing the last month of March. This is a nightly thing she looks forward to.

Day 85

More Pics from our trip to the Zoo!!

Today was a easy peasy day at home. Nothing new to report today. Tune in for Logan's updated well baby stats and a onesie picture tomorrow!!

Day 84

What a fast 3 days that was with Grandpa Kevin. We had to take Grandpa back to the airport this morning. But we had so much fun and Emma has told me a couple times today that she misses him already:( Thank you Kevin for all you did around the house and the relief you gave me. It was so nice to take a nap in the afternoon and I truly enjoyed my long run day.

Today was a busy morning. But we all had some quiet time that ended up with a friend and her kids coming over for Pizza. I really enjoyed the company and the kids had a blast, Thank you Rasheedah!!!

So it is about 11PM already, for some reason I am awake working on misc. stuff. Logan has woken up twice tonight. After the 3rd time I grabbed the bottle of Motrin assuming he must be teething. I went into his room and gave him the Motrin and tried to lay him down again, which normally works. He continued to cry so I picked him up thinking I will just rock him a little. And he arched his back and threw his woobie and Binky. So I let him down. He cried all the way down the stairs right up to the sink. The poor kid was thirsty. He drank 1/2 a cup of water and is now asleep now. Poor kid. Now Emma is coming down saying "I don't like my room". I have a feeling it might be a long night. Gramie you better hurry, I need some sleep:)

Day 83

Today we took Grandpa to the Zoo. I decided we should take the wagon not thinking that Logan likes to push and pull things. The kid was so distracted by this silly wagon he screamed and cried pretty much the whole time we were there because I would not let him out. Emma had a pretty good time once she got over the whiny about a snack moment. We finally ended up at the end where Emma enjoyed the playground. The above clip is of her wearing Grandpa out by chasing him. Logan wanted nothing to do with the park so instead sat in the wagon eating (go figure) After he completed most of his snack I was able to get him to talk with me a bit.

Day 82

We had a nice easy day around the house today. It was nice to play with the kids and even get in a little nap while Logan slept and Emma and Grandpa watched a movie. I even got in a nice long phone call with Matt, he is doing well. We did make it to the park, it was about 54 and sunny today. Tonight, I am still tired and curled up on the couch about to watch the new show In the Motherhood that was on last night.

Day 81

We had a super busy day today. It started early at 5:30 AM for me. I am still working on P90X doubles. So after 1 hour and 45 minutes of working out with Logan playing nearby Grandpa and Emma woke up and we got the day started. After a quick Dr. Appointment for me (I have dermatitis on my wrist) we picked up Emma's Little Caesers Pizza Fundraiser Order and headed home for Lunch. Thankfully, Logan got in a got 2 hour nap before the busy crazy day started. We made stops at Home Depot, Dicks Sporting Goods, Sam's, Walmart, and then onto Dinner. After a quick bit at the PX we met up with some of the other girls from the Company to make Single Soldier Easter Bags for Matt's Company. Grandpa was nice enough to send 90 minutes with Logan and about 6 other kids in the playroom. We finally called it a night and made it home with enough time for Grandpa to wrestle with Logan and waltz up the stairs with Emma. The kids are having a BLAST!!! And Grandpa has already completed a few of my small annoying fixer up jobs that needed to be done. I and I think Grandpa are looking forward to a easy day at home tomorrow:)
