it has hit

It's official....separation anxiety has officially hit our house. And we have a bad case of it. Mommy-itis would be the diagnosis I suppose. Don't get me wrong, hearing Mama is a beautiful sound, but I have been hearing it about 5,697 times a day, and that's only a slight exaggeration. She calls me very loud and with great authority. It is sweet as can be, but in all honestly, sometimes my sanity is at stake. Going to the bathroom alone is rare, and showering, haha; she opens the glass door (cold!) and cries mama until I am finished. Even though sometimes it gets on my nerves, I truly am grateful to be able to be called mama.

This mama has clothes to be washing, clothes to be drying, clothes to be folded, and some to be put away...I think I better get to doing my laundry!

And just because this little love who has mommy-itis is so cute...here are some pictures!

Every morning a few minutes after Logan get up, she is ready for breakfast. I usually put her in her chair and give her a few cheerios while I prepare her breakfast. Patience isn't really her thing, so I have to give her something while she waits! This morning, I put the cheerios down, she starting having a come apart - she wanted the cheerios put back IN the box, so she could reach her hand in and get them herself....seriously.

She also eats her bananas by herself now -

where did my baby go?

Logan's vocabulary is really starting to take-off! She repeats just about everything, and knows several words and what they mean. Along with a handful of other words, these are her most common words/sounds...

Ba - bear

Ba - bottle

Ba - ball ball

Ba - Bonnie (my dog at my parent's house)

Ba - bath

Ba - Uncle Bobby

Ba - baby

Ba - bed

Ba - bubbles

I think she has the B down...

and yes, I know what each and every Ba means when she says it :-)

black/white wednesday

I love this picture. It is my background on my computer (for now!). I love the way her hair curls perfectly at the ends, and I love how you can tell she is in deep thought, which is so her.

When I was pregnant, I could not imagine what Logan would look like; what color hair or eyes she would have, or what her personality would be like. We would sit and say, "O, I think she will have your nose, or she will be tall like you!"

We could have done that all day; but truth is,

she is who she is

and I love it that way...

This is not a typical black/white conversion for me, but I love it.  

I'm linking up with The Long Road to China, her black and whites are always amazing!

our holiday...

All American Girl

When you think July 4th, you think cookout - or at least I do! So this year Cody and I decided to have a cookout at our house and we enjoyed family and friends over last night! Surrounded by grandparents and great-grandparents, there was no lack of attention for little Logan. I think somebody was either holding her, walking her, or feeding her at all times! Needless to say, she was exhausted!

Logan got a new pool, complete with a sprayer - awesome! We set it up and her water table out back. She had a wonderful time outside and she enjoyed her dinner and dessert pretty well too! She was a big fan of watermelon, and YooHoo (homemade) ice cream!

We didn't make it to fireworks this year, Logan just never would have made it that late.

We had a wonderful 4th and hope ya'll did too!

happy 4th!
