Cousins

It was so much fun to spend the day with my sweet sis-in-law and her precious baby girl. Here are the cousins together!

Christmas Babies

 Christmas is always special with little ones around, and we have felt so blessed this year.  I pulled out the Santa suit we dressed Daniel in when he was a baby, and it fit Logan perfectly.  Here is a photo of each of them wearing their Christmas pajamas and that same Santa hat!

Happy Halloween!

It came as no surprise that Daniel wanted to be something Star Wars related for Halloween.  He settled on Luke Skywalker, but not just any Luke Skywalker.  It had to be the one from the Return of the Jedi movie, with the black outfit and green light saber.  Since Daniel was doing Star Wars, we decided that Logan should follow the same theme.  So we ended up with a most dashing Luke Skywalker and a most adorable baby Ewok. 

       Logan wore his costume without complaint, though he really wanted to eat the fur off the front of it and chew on the hood.  We walked around the neighborhood trick or treating until Logan got fussy and Daniel’s boots started to hurt.  We also visited the fire station, great-grandparent’s house, and a few other friends around town.  It was a fun evening!

Brothers

Meeting the family

The following photos are of Logan meeting all his family for the first time.  Big brother got to do most of the introductions!

 

Welcome, Logan!

Our precious baby boy, Logan John, has arrived!  He weighed 8 pounds 7 ounces and was 21 inches long.  He has dark hair and beautiful dark eyes.  We are quite taken with him!  Daniel is proving to be a wonderful big brother and an awesome helper for his mama.  We feel so blessed!  Here are some photos taken at the hospital.

T-ball

Daniel participated in his second year of instructional t-ball.  He seemed to enjoy it again, and especially liked that his daddy helped to coach.  It is a hoot to watch those 3-5 year old kids out on the field.  Here are some photos from the season!

Above is Daniel with his best friend McKinley.

Daniel is a great batter!

He looks so old in the above photo.  Sigh.

Playing in the outfield is not all that exciting for preschoolers.

Team huddle.  Daniel is number 3 with the gray hat.
