Oklahoma Adventures Week 28

February 10th - 17th

This has actually been a good week, exhausting, but good. :) Logan is getting up to a standing position on his own a lot more lately, and his happier now especially since he has learned how to sit down from a standing position. Sometimes he still gets a little frustrated though. He use to love playing in his bouncer toy and now he just likes to stand on the outside and play around it.

He still gets in there occasionally, but prefers the outside, he can leave if he wants too that way, when he's in the jumper he's stuck in one place.

I've decided that Logan is just going to be a lightweight, tall and skinny, just like his daddy and there is nothing I can do about it. He eats really well (according to me) and he for the most part is sort of sleeping through the night and he hasn't lost weight, he just isn't gaining it at a tremendous speed. Then, I found out how daddy feeds the buddy......

Apparently, most of the food gets "on" him and not "in" him...maybe he is starving......:) (not really, Morgan is really great at feeding Logan when I need him too, but what is childhood without a few pictures of food all over you)

Logan has been doing better at his naps, I can usually put him down awake, but he's no good at putting himself back to sleep on his own if it's a nap, so I usually go get him and by the time I'm back to the office he's asleep. On this lucky day I got to put him down and he actually stayed asleep for another hour while I worked. He just laid there all sprawled out on the futon. :)

So, for our next adventure, Morgan and I got roped into doing a dance competition. I know, I know, me, dance, sounds ridiculous, but we actually won 1st place!!!! We did country swing dancing at stake activity called "Dancing with Our Stars." We actually had a really good time and were even able to get it on tape. (Click on the video, and then click play)

We were both exhausted by the end of the dance since we had only gone through the whole thing maybe once in our practicing. I was dying for air by the end, but we had a blast. Dancing is a wonderful cardio/muscle workout and we'll have to do it more often to keep in shape. And, surprisingly, once I finally just let myself go, I really really enjoyed it and had fun.

While we were there, we were sitting with a couple from our ward. They were so nice to entertain and hold Logan while we were dancing. And by the end of the night, Rodney had even gotten him to sleep. :)

So, that's about it for our adventures this week.

We had some leftover Mentos from my trip to the store yesterday, we thought we might send a few of these in and Logan can be the new spokes-baby for Mentos, the Freshmaker. :)

....till next time.... :)
