April Endings

It seems like lately I spend my days laughing. To preface this next story, Logan is the pickiest of picky eaters. I mean he won't eat anything that doesn't have a bread like texture, except for fruit and yogurt. So as you can imagine getting him to eat is somewhat tricky. I don't want to feed him fried breaded foods all day long, so most days I have to be really creative. Anyways so yesterday I baked him fish sticks and told him they were french fries. He gobbled them ALL down. So today I thought I'd try again. So I cooked and eggs and put syrup on it telling him it was a pancake. That didn't work. While the quote pancake was cooking he kept saying "me see momma", so I picked him up to look at his so called pancake and his response was "ewww pancake nasty momma". All I could do was crack up. I guess there was no tricking him today!!
Anyways here are a few pictures from April that I'd thought share. At the top Logan has been riding around in his blocks wagon, and this day it flipped over so I had to hurry and take a picture because he thought it was so funny. The picture with the ball was after a big rain, and you can't see it but he was dancing around in a big mud puddle and throwing his ball in it. The pictures of him on the little trike is actually the one that my dad and I fixed with an electric foot peddle and it is his "boomboom". He rides it all around the yard. The glasses picture is pretty self explanatory. Also he is really into books, so the as you can see we are reading the potty book.
He also tells me everyday that "Papaw at work", "Jojo at skoo (school)", and "Daddy at home".
So to end on a funny note, don't read this if you are embarrassed about passing gas. So anytime someone toots around him he will say "ewww Daddy poopoo". He also loves to flush the toilet and say "pee pee or poo poo bye bye".

The Beach

A couple of weekends ago we went to visit the Farmers in Houston. We had a great time celebrating Julia's 26th birthday and just hanging out as friends. I was really impressed with how well Logan and Gracie played together. Anyways here are the pictures from our day at the Galveston beach. I feel bad because I didn't get any pictures of the adults really, but oh well the kids are pretty darn cute.
You can click on the collage to make it bigger. My Internet is so slow that I'm going to just have to make collages more often to be able to share pictures. It will really only upload like one picture at a time.

Sleeping Binky

Since Logan is getting bigger we are trying to retire the beloved binky. I know giving it up completely won't happen for awhile because he is so attached, but we are currently trying to only need it at naps and bedtime. We made up a little fable telling him that his binky is night night when he's awake. When he gets out of bed we cover them with a blanket so he can't reach in and grab them during the day, and we are very quiet not to wake them when we are in his room. So anyways to the point of this post, I have a cute story that happened today. We were getting ready to go outside so we had to go get his sandals and put them on. Logan was standing beside his crib holding on and lifting his foot for me to put his shoes on and he said so plainly as he put his finger up to his lips, "shuuu shuuu binky night night". My heart melted because we hadn't even talked about his binky being asleep today. Apparently I was just talking to loud and he wanted his binky to get sleep. It amazing what kids remember.
