Happy Baby!

Logan has been smiling for a while now- mainly in his sleep or when he is really drowsy. On Sunday, we saw a different kind of smile--- I smiled at him, and he smiled back! Those toothless grins really melt your heart :)

Disclaimer: He was dressed by his father...

Four Generations

Logan is the first born in the fourth generation on his maternal grandmother's side. Here is a picture of the four generations taken this weekend of Logan with me, his grandmother, and his great grandparents. So sweet!

Logan's first boat ride

This weekend Logan had his first ride on a boat, and we think he liked it...



It was a little bit cooler on Sunday, so we took the opportunity to see if he liked riding on the boat. He enjoys being outside, so we thought he would like it. Between the sound of the motor and the cool wind, he was out the entire time! It was sure to be his first of many boat rides throughout his life--- and his first was at 5 1/2 weeks!

Here is another great picture from the weekend thanks to his Bess who loves to take pictures of him.

One Month Old

Our sweet baby is one month old today! Everyone always tell you that they grow so fast, and it is definitely true. Physically, Logan is filling out his clothes more everyday and even starting to grow out of some of his 0-3 months sizes. Here are some other things Logan has been up to during his first month of life:

• Holding his head up for 30 seconds or more during his "tummy time"
• Continuing to roll on both sides
• Focusing in one our faces and other things close in view
• Listening to music and loving it
• Loving his swing and bouncy seat
• Sleeping at night consistently for at least three hours at a time and occasionally has slept for 4 or 5 consecutive hours (which his parents were extremely grateful for!)
• Discovering his arms and legs and just how much they can move
• Making "happy" noises when watching the lights and listening to music on his Baby Einstein mat (we love this!)
• Going through more diapers than we can count!

The first month of getting to know our sweet Logan has been wonderful! We are trying to enjoy every minute we are with him because we know he will not be little for long and will continue to grow up so fast.

Here are a couple of other recent pictures that I love. They were taken last weekend during Logan's first (of what is sure to be many) trips to the lake. He got to spend the weekend being held by his Bess (my Mom) and Great Grandmother (my Grandmother), and when we returned home he did not want to be put down! He did not get anywhere near the water, but his parents got to enjoy some time on the boat while Logan received lots of attention from other family members.

I love this first picture- he looks so serious!

This one shows how long he is- he measured 21 1/2 inches at his 2 week check up and he looks every bit of it in this picture. So cute!
