Logan had fun smashing the squishy pillows in his head like a hat. Everything is either a hat or an airplane these days...."airplane food, airplane car, etc" And he likes cheesin' it for the camera too. :)On Friday, we were planning on heading up to SLC to visit my aunt and to pick up my shirt for a 5k race that I ran on Saturday..well, that would still technically be today, anyway, I had to wait for a special package......
Our Double Jogging Stroller! And despite Logan's facial expression, he really loves it and actually cried when I had to take him out to fold it up and put it in the car.
The color ended up being a lot different than we thought, so we are seeing if we can exchange it for a different color, because it was quite the investment, but at the same time, the color is growing on us, and if we're stuck with it, then oh well, I love the stroller itself. I'm really excited to start using it.
So, we packed up and went to visit Aunt Diana. At first Logan was being really clingy and shy, which was okay, because Diana got to give Damon some extra attention, this being the first time she's seen him in person. Damon just loved her and had a great time, and Logan really loved it too after he warmed up a bit. Logan had just woken up from a nap early, and that will always make him a little cranky. 
In the end he was staring out the window looking at cars, exploring the house, going up and down the stairs counting, eating the tomatoes off the table...well more like taking a curious bite and then throwing it back in the box.
As we were getting ready to leave Logan leaned up to Diana to give her kisses and said bye bye, without any prompting, it was too cute. We'll have to visit more often, especially when it gets warmer and we can have picnics in the backyard. :)
After my aunt's house, I met up with my sister-in-law to pick up our shirts for the race. Then we went over to a McDonald's Playplace to let our boys run around and play. Logan had a great time, but I knew it was time to go when he wouldn't stay in the play place and kept walking around to all the people in the restaurant saying "hi" (not a shy bone in his body, cranky: yes, shy: no)
So, the race was today, Saturday, and of course Damon slept all through the night from 9:00-6:00 all week long, but chose Friday night to wake up several times...oiy. It was probably a good thing in the end though because he got to eat twice before I left instead of just once...oh yeah, and then, they both decided to sleep in late....sure, sleep in late when Daddy is the one getting up with you ;) I digress. Back to the race, I headed up to the Running of the Leopards 5K and met up with our group at 7:00am and it was FREEZING! I'm glad that Morgan convinced me that I needed to wear long sleeves.
We got bused to the starting line and had to wait there another 20 minutes or so before the race. I could finally start feeling my toes by about the second mile and by the end I could feel my nose and fingers again....next time I'll be more prepared to run in the cold. My only goal for the 5k was to not walk at all once I started, which I accomplished. I figured if I did that I could finish in under 35 minutes. My time was 30:59!!!!!! I was pleasantly surprised when I came to the finish line. That's a pretty fast time for me especially since I haven't been running. I pushed it really hard and I'm going to pay for it in the days to come. And that's going to be a pretty high bar to start with, but I'm excited. I didn't realize how much the physical activity and just being outside really makes a difference.
After the race we got some things done around here and then we got to go hang out with some cousins. We haven't seen Phil and MeChel since Christmas, so it was really fun to see them. We went down to a park in Orem and I took some pictures and they all came out fuzzy except these two.
Damon rolling around on the blanket and Logan going down the slide with Daddy.
It was a beautiful day! It did get a little chilly after a while, so we headed back to the house and had a chance to play a game. We were also able to pass along our single jogging stroller, so now I have another running buddy to do some 5k's down in this area with me. YAY! :)
Well, I better sign off for the night. Morgan and I are speaking in church tomorrow...I just hope my legs aren't so sore that I can barely stand up at the pulpit for 10 minutes. Until next time...
We met up with my sister in law and her kids by the fountains before and after we were done and Logan loved watching the water. 
Damon was pretty tuckered out by the end though and he just slept in the stroller, it was wonderful! We had a great day.
Logan loves to play with all the little parts of my sewing machine. He takes out all the different "feet" and zooms them around like cars.
There's my cute little rolie polie bug again.
And Logan cheesin' it
And my two favorite boys in the whole wide world, I love you!
Yes, this is the first time Logan has EVER pooped without his diaper or in the tub. I'm not sure if he was throwing his poo out and into the toilet or if he got out of the tub and tried to poo in the toilet...I'm hoping it was the latter, but really I think it was the first one (I'm sure all you mothers who have been through potty training are laughing at the not really messy mess)....so, how does this apply to the beginning disclaimer, well, normally in this situation after a long day of chasing them around and keeping them entertained and now with a screaming Damon in his crib I would just break down and cry and get mad at Logan for pooping in the tub, but this is what really happened, I walked in took one look and said "oh crap" and then I bust out laughing like I had just told the funniest joke in the world, I got my camera and took a couple pictures....I then proceeded to empty the tub, clean up the poo, take all the poo-tainted toys out of the tub (sorry Damon I'm throwing your tub away, I hope you enjoyed it while you could) I scrubbed the tub real quick and re-bathed Logan, and about the time I was done with Logan, Damon had stopped crying too...whew. So, now Damon is down for a little nap before bed and Logan is finishing Toy Story from this morning and me, I'm going to finish this post and for the almost first time this season I am going to watch American Idol and leave the dishes and messy house until after the kids are in bed, because seriously, I think I've dealt with enough crap today. :)
I can't leave him un-attended on our bed either now that he's a mover.
He does love the bouncer though, so I guess we traded the swing for that...too bad he can't take his naps in the bouncer :)
He's found his toes and loves chewing and sucking on them.
I do find him in the craziest places. He can maneuver almost anywhere...the problem is getting back out. :)
We've also been doing some solid food with Damon...yeah, we decided to go straight to the ice cream. ;) Actually right now he really loves sweet potatoes, bananas, and oatmeal, but hates rice cereal. And he's going through that same red rashy eczema that Logan got, but I haven't been able link it to anything :( I guess we'll just keep working at it with the lotion.
I love his big happy smiles!
See what I mean about napping on the swing...it's a good thing I went and checked on him before he feel out, this was the first time he'd ever been able to break out of the bundle and squirm so much.
We got to go to Grandma Hadlock's birthday part on Saturday and had lots of fun and got some clothes from his cousin. He looked so cute in this little hat and he absolutely loved the tie...eating of course.
And this is my little man looking so handsome.
One of my most favorite treats is rice krispie treats! Logan loves them too.
He liked helping me lick the bowl. Mmmmm rice krispie treats, I might have to make some today. :)
Morgan has a habit of laying on his back and throwing balls at the ceiling, now Logan likes to try and throw the balls like daddy. It was a cute moment where I got all three of my favorite boys together.
Damon is such a cutey pie. He's growing bigger and cuter by the moment too, but of course, I'm not biased at all, just as the grandparents :)
Both Damon and Logan love the barnyard animal toy. It's fun with Logan because he imitates the sounds, and Damon is just hypnotized by it.
This is Logan saying cheese for the camera.
And this is my Damon all tuckered out after a trip to, well, I can't remember where, probably just the grocery store.
We started some solids with Damon recently, he's not totally sold yet, but I think that's only because he's tried rice cereal. And it may be a little early, but he has been so interested in what anyone is eating and he tries to grab stuff off our plates. Hopefully he won't be as picky as his brother :)
And he's definitely a messy eater. I'll find bits of cereal leftover in his ears, on his hair, or basically anywhere his fingers can reach.
He sure does love sitting with us at the table though when we're all eating. :)
And my latest sewing project has been Logan's "quiet book" for church. Who would have ever thought I would enjoy sewing as much as I do.
He hasn't quite figured out buttons, but he points and says, red button, blue button, green button, etc. It's really cute.
Logan loves to count and knows his numbers one through ten.
But his most favorite page is "uh-head" also known as Mr. Potato Head, I think it reminds him of Toy Story. He'll grab and arm and say "oh no" all concerned, it's really funny. We'll have to try and get that on camera. Well, that's all for now, so until next time.....
