logan's stats

ok, so i don't really have any new "stats" on logan, but he has been pretty busy lately. here are some things that logan is saying and doing lately:

• climbs up on the coffee table and takes a leap of faith whether there is someone there to catch him or not (so far no major injuries have been sustained)
• says "choo choo" when he sees or hears a train, or when we talk about a train
• makes a sound and sign for airplane (he's been doing this for a while now)
• says "car" (more like "ka") and makes a sound: vroom, vroom
• tries to say "cup" (sounds a lot like car) when he wants a drink
• comes and grabs your hand when he wants to go anywhere, which is everywhere!
• says "shoes" and is obsessed with trying our shoes on

and finally....

• he no longer takes a pacifier! we successfully (and overall painlessly) have weaned logan from his pacifier. man, he loved that thing. he had to have it all the time, day or night, and would whine when he didn't have it. i was sick of listening to him whine, so decided that it was time to go. we gradually cut the tip of the pacifier so it got shorter and shorter. finally he decided he didn't really want it anymore because it didn't work for him. he has been completely pacifier free for 2 days now! at first he didn't sleep as long for his naps and in the morning, but he is getting better!

last week logan had his first official play date with a new little guy that moved into our ward, braden. logan and braden are about 6 weeks apart and they are so similar...all boy!. braden came over and we had lunch, played in the water outside, and had popsicles. i think it was a fun time for everyone, including the moms!
