15 Months Already!

Before we get to Christmas...

My how the time flies. I cannot believe Logan is already 15 months old. OK, was 15 months old. Back in November. I've missed October too it seems. A summary is in order before the holiday rush.

October Lowdown:

School has been great for Jack, and work has been busy for Scott. He worked a lot of OT in October, but we are grateful he has a job so we try not to be too upset when we miss him on Saturdays.

Halloween was a LOT of fun for Jack this year since he really understood what was going on. He didn't much care for the creepy decorations or costumes, but he loved trick-or-treating. Logan tagged along for the ride and tried to take it all in.  Jack also had a Noah's Ark party at school. We bought Jack a used Winnie-the-Pooh costume and Logan an matching Tigger. Cute right? Sure. Glad I snapped a photo that day.  After wearing last year's ladybug costume for the Noah's Ark party Jack wanted to be a ladybug again for trick-or-treating. LOL.  I don't feel too bad, because he loves dress-up play and the Silly ol' Bear will get much use later on.

Tigger and....ladybug?!?

November Scoop:

Logan turned 15 months old and had his checkup. He is doing great and his number look good:

     30 1/2 inches tall
     21 lb 15 oz
     49 1/2  head circumference

He is healthy and as of today (2 Dec) he has 3 teeth in and 2 on the way. Yay! Logan is pretty happy-go-lucky and laughs at everything - especially his own "jokes". He watches Jack like a hawk and wants to do everything his big brother does. I'm trying to use this to my advantage but sometimes Jack isn't in the mentoring mood (ha ha ha). Heck, it's good for both of them I think. And I'm glad they are so different - I think it will help them out in the long run.

We had a small Thanksgiving at Grandma and Grandpa C's house and they made a huge feast. Thanks so much! We all had fun and too much to eat. Except maybe Logan who doesn't ever seem to have too much to eat.

Since Scott had that whole week off (you know, before he has another string of travel and overtime) we got our tree out that week. It was fun to watch each kid be excited about the decorations: Jack because he remembers now and Logan pretty much for the "first time again".  We all love Christmas season and it puts us all in a cheery mood so it was good to get the tree out again.

Okay, now I feel up to date before I get to Christmas. I won't be 3 months behind at least.

Hope you all are well and are enjoying your Advent!

Until Next Time...

Angel or Devil?

Kids. They are too funny. I had to share this one with all of you. We went to Mass today and tried to sit inside for once. Everything was great, until Jack noticed the missal in the pew had these nice orange and yellow squares or something in the illustration on the cover. He was conviced they were dominoes, but that is a word he struggles to say. So, at an especially quiet time in the Mass he looks at me and says, "damn-yous! damn-yous!" We both had a mix of embarassment and laughter. Only out of the mouth of a 2 year old! We went to the back of the church soon after that. :)

Happy Birthday Jack

Here are some photos from Jack's 2nd birthday day, and party. He was so excited he was telling everyone happy birthday! We 'filled' his room with balloons while he was sleeping. He was so excited to wake up to balloons! Jack wanted to pose with his new favorite toy - Buzz! They are still usually only separated at nighttime (too tempting to make noise all night). Oh, and that is his 'camera' smile. He uses it whenever he sees the lens pointed at him. So cheesy! Blowing out the candles on his Spiderman cake. Yes, all the other stuff is Thomas the Train. He likes what he likes. Jack wasn't about to let Emerson go home without a hug. It was a hug, not an attack. Promise!

Easter

Easter has come and gone, but finally I have some photos uploaded! We had a nice time and enjoyed spending time with Grandma and Grandpa C, Antie and Uncle John Tressell , and Uncle Robert, Aunt Natalie, and Emerson. Jack really enjoyed hunting for eggs (for a few days he asked us to hide them again so he could find them), but was a bit disappointed when they no longer had animal cracker in them. Anyway better late than never. I'll put all the photos on Flickr . :) Painting Eggs They actually sat still for three seconds! Family Photo - Easter 2011 Until next time...
