FAMILY PICS!

Two months ago, Alex's cousin, Brittany, took some family pictures for us and we love them! Such a beautiful destination and it was a lot of fun, and Logan was a champ. He was 6 months in these photos:) Here are some of my favorites. 

   Alex's birthday was the 10th and we had a pretty fun morning. Sadly, he had to work from 2:00-10:00pm... but he opened up presents, blew out his candles, and I decorated our place for him and he loved it. It was also Alex's first Fathers Day! Logan and I made him pancakes for breakfast and Logan woke him up with a big hug and a slobber kiss:) We all went to church and Alex also had to work on Sunday so we only had the morning together. But it was a good morning. 
   Logan is EIGHT months now!!! Oh man, I cannot believe it. I want to cry on the 23rd of each month because it's just going by so fast and I miss my itty bitty baby. But watching him grow is amazing. He is so fun to be around and all around a happy baby. The other night I dreamt that he got his first tooth, and I checked his mouth the next day and he cut his first one!! It's so cute. I almost cried, haha. Now those fussy nights are making sense... but he is now army crawling, claps his hands, says dada and mama, ( mostly dada ) he loves watching Baby Einstein and also the musical group, Pentatonix. And yes, he still loves Spongebob and still smiles/laughs every time I put it on for him. He's still so smiley, and sometimes I catch him laughing at himself and he has a weird obsession with going into the bathroom... he thinks it's so fun! He loves sweet potatoes, carrots, peas (baby food, that is). I love being his mom, he teaches me so much and I love watching him grow, he is the absolute best :):):)

 Logan loved the 

streamers :)

 Fathers Day with Alex, and Facetiming

my dad/Grandpa.

 My 8 month old!

   Today was a really fun day. We took Logan hiking for his first time. We went with Alex's cousin, Brittany, and her husband Ben. It was SO pretty and perfect weather. Poor Logan was pretty fussy in the beginning and we noticed his skin was really red from where we put sunscreen on him. He had some sort of reaction and he was not happy. We started putting water on him and wiping it off the best we could and it started clearing up and he was all smiles. He did great the rest of the hike and we all had a lot of fun. We didn't get to hike for as long as we wanted but it was a great day to get out, and to get some exercise :) 

Catch up.

   A lot has happened in the past couple months... Alex got offered a job in Bountiful, Utah in January and we decided to take it so we moved out here mid January and are a little homesick, haha. We are really missing California and plan to move back when the timing is right. Alex has a lot of family out here which has been nice, and my sisters aren't too far away so that has been a huge plus since moving out here.
   Logan is getting SO BIG!! Poor thing got a cold from me and had a horrible cough and runny nose for about a week, and he also started teething so it was a long week but he is feeling better now and is back to his smiley self. He has been trying so hard to roll over and just over night he nailed it! He does it so quick now, but then gets stuck so I have to save him and roll him back over. It's quite the routine we have going on here. But just yesterday he started being able to roll back over to his back and I'm just waiting to look up and see him down the hall or something, haha. He is such a funny baby and is starting to laugh a lot more, too. Last night I burped and he thought it was the funniest thing! He brings such joy into mine and Alex's lives, we cant see ourselves without him. He turned 5 months on Sunday and I told Alex I cant use the "I just had a baby" excuse anymore, ha. I have 4 pounds til my pre-prego weight and just a matter of getting in better shape, but I'm feeling pretty good. Alex and I also celebrated our 2 year anniversary on Sunday! We didn't do anything too exciting...we were both sick and went out on Friday and Saturday and just laid low on Sunday. I couldn't have asked for a better husband and I'm so glad that he's all mine:)
