Today has already started off well. I got up at 9:00, I went outside and talked to Nikki's mom for a bit, then went inside and got on the gazelle. I worked out on it for a good 30 minutes then did some stretching and just as I was finishing up...Logan woke up! Last night went pretty well too. Yesterday I got side tracked and forgot about watching the clock...apparently I need to train myself as well as Logan. I took him to the room at 2:15 where we read a book and had some cuddle time. By 2:30 I told him it was nap time...by 3:05 he was asleep. The 35 minutes in between were pure hell! We got up at 4:30. Last night I finally had to put my foot down at 11:00 and tell JR it was night-night time, then I had to explain why we had to turn the lights off earlier for now on and that if I was going to establish a nap time, I was going to establish a night-night time as well. We discussed what time that would be and decided that we would all be in the room by 10:00 and do our book and cuddles and that lights would be out by 10:30. I know this sounds late for many of you, but it is what will work for us. No, my son is not missing out on any sleep, he is still getting the recommended amount for his age, it just may be at different times than others! Anyway, after the nap-time strugle and all the struggles the night before, I thought for sure last night would be more of the same. Instead, JR laid him down, and Lgoan cried for a few minutes before claming down. After JR got back in bed Logan got out of is bed and came over to me...HA! I picked him up and rocked him for a minute then took him to his bed. He laid there and I sat next to him for about 5 minutes, then got up and went to my bed. I could hear him moving aroung so I waited about 20 before I let myself drift off, half expecting the screaming to begin. To my surprise, there was nothing. He did wake up at 3:15 and I did the same...this time he wasn't so calm. After 5 minutes, I said I was through, JR got up and sat with him and 5 minutes later....he was out. I seriously think that he has a certain preference between me and JR....not that it has to be JR every time or me every time, but sometimes he only wants his dad and sometimes he only wants me. Anyway, we got a lot more sleep last night, and I am hoping for more of the same!
Funny things about Logan:
He is learning so quickly...in just a few days, he has picked up three new words
After accomplishing where his eyes, nose, ears, belly button, and mouth are we decided to expand....basically we ask, "where is your...." and just pick out something we see....This is what it has turned in to....He can point out his hair, feet, butt, wee-wee, nipples, cheek, and chin. JR's funny game is to ask Logan where his butt is, then ask where Mommy's nose is...HAHAHAHA Like it bothers me!
His favorite letter is B
His favorite word is ball
And for those of you who watch baseball...the little song they play, it sounds like a trumpet maybe, followed by the crowd yelling "CHARGE"...Logan loves this and although he doesn't say charge, he puts his fist up in the air! It really is funny. He also claps everytime someone hits the ball...even if it is the wrong team, or if it gets caught.
Sorry if this seems like bragging, that is not my intention at all...I am just truly amazed at how much he is changing! I love him so much, sometime I find myself wondering how I will love another baby as much as I love Logan. It just doesn't seem possible.
