Oklahoma Adventures Week 15

November 11th - 17th


Well, my panic attack from last week has subsided and Logan is eating like a champ. It turns out that he just wanted to try something different. In a desperate attempt to get him to eat ANYTHING, I gave him a Cheerio...and he loved it! So from there we got some finger foods for him to munch on, and I slip in the spoon every now and again, and soon he was opening his mouth like a little bird wanting more. I guess when your baby is so predictable for so long, when he does something a little off pattern, it seems like a huge deal. Being a mom has sure taught me a lot!!!!

There he is, eating like a champ. (teehee) And of course saying, see mom, I'm fine, I'm not going to let myself starve.

This past week we've really been focusing more on the tummy time with Logan. He's actually starting to enjoy tummy time too. He pushes himself up, and now he's rolling all over the place. He'll be entertained for almost an hour on his tummy if he has enough toys in reach.

He loves his sports bath toys (the little teething blue bear is hiding the basketball, soccer ball, baseball, and football), although, he's not quite old enough to play with them in the tub, they keep him entertained for quite some time and hopefully it will make him want to crawl when they roll out of his reach.

Logan is doing really well at nap-time now, and going to bed, he's back to old self sleeping through the night. He wakes up occasionally, but usually soothes himself back to sleep within about 5 minutes. He loves sleeping on his side or his tummy, even when I put him to bed on his back. 9 times out of 10 when we go in to get him in the morning he's on his belly playing with his teddy bear.

Logan rolls over in his crib all the time and we'll find him in the farthest corner from where we set him down. He's rolling all over everywhere. Sometimes he gets stuck though, like when he rolls into the desk or the chair. :)

He just keeps rolling back and forth and can't quite figure out why he's not going anywhere anymore.

So this week we finally broke out the Nintendo Gamecube. It's been sitting in a box behind our door this whole time, we just haven't found a time to really play, but this week we decided to dust it off and give it a go. We played some Mariokart, Worms 3D, & Marioparty 7. Logan even got to join in the fun!
Well, I've run out of Logan pictures, so I guess I'll give you the quick update about me and Morgan. We celebrated Morgan's birthday on the 13th. I can't believe how fast time is flying by. As far as "home" we feel pretty settled in Oklahoma (not that we want to put down permanent roots or anything). Morgan is doing really well in school and we're counting down the days until this semester is over. We're both still working on our church calling and both feeling better and better about them. Morgan is starting to get to know the Young Men a little more and I really love working in the primary right now. The teachers love holding Logan when I'm up there teaching the music and he is a really good boy in primary. We have truly been blessed with our son.

Thats what i have always been told when i ask questions about eating. They will not let themselves starve, and they sure look like they wont starve either haha. As for the sleeping through the night that is really nice. For the past month Kashlynn has been in the fighting sleep so bad mode. For naps or even just bed time she fights so hard. Anyways, it looks like things are going good. Cant wait to see you in december.

I am glad to hear everyone is doing better this week. We have it now in our house and I am hoping it clears up in time for thanksgiving.
