pacifiers

yesterday i was feeding logan and he had some toys in his high chair and also his pacifier. when we were done i took him out of his chair and i couldn't find his pacifier. i looked everywhere because it is all rubber and when it falls it can bounce long distances. well i couldn't find it and i figured it would fall into the category of missing socks.

today i went outside to put some things away in the backyard and i noticed out of the corner of my eye logan's pacifier glistening in the grass. how did it get outside you ask? one word: shiloh. every now and then he likes to swipe logan's pacifier when we're not looking. in fact we have several pacifiers that shiloh has gotten to and we keep those for home use only!

last weekend dan went camping with the scouts. as the scout master he has to go camping with the deacons once a month. on saturday they went spelunking in peppersauce and got all muddy! this is the after picture (dan is on the far left)!

vomit, there's plenty of it

i just put logan to bed and i am wondering if i want to wake up tomorrow...i have had one of those days. i awoke this morning to a migraine...not so lovely. so i let logan sleep as long as possible, i get up, eat breakfast, pop some ibuprofen, and figure i should get logan up since it is now past 9am. i feed logan, play with him, and pretend that he is sleepy and tell myself that he wants to take a nap (so that i can take a nap). but he doesn't. he cries and cries. i feed him again, rock him to sleep, and not 5 seconds after i put him down i find myself looking into the toilet vomiting. oh how i hate migraines. i take a short nap and then logan wakes up. i let him fuss a little...while i lie down to get rid of my headache. i start to feel better so i go and get logan. i am bringing him to our bed and then he decides to vomit. only he is not looking into the toilet. he vomits all over me! i am ok with that though, then i don't have to wash the sheets, again, like last night when he vomited in our bed, or clean the carpet like the night before when he vomited all over the floor (actually, dan cleaned the carpet, it is kind of his specialty). so in the shower we go! the rest of my day wasn't so bad, i guess. except logan was fussy all day...i wonder if it was all the vomiting going on. hopefully tomorrow will better. as long as there is no vomiting, i'm sure it will be.



this is logan lying on the bathroom floor with vomit all over him. he doesn't seem to be bothered by it. the worst part was that it came out his little nose!

our little boy is growing up

logan went in for his six month check-up: 19lb. 4oz. and 26.5in. what a little chunker!

doggy business

this past weekend we had our first "major" expense for our dog shiloh. we woke up on saturday and he was limping around on his back right leg. now i know that shiloh gets up in the middle of the night and he likes to go explore in the backyard, but i'm not sure what he could have done to hurt his leg. so i replay in my mind the night's events wondering if i accidentally kicked him or rolled over him in my haste to get up with logan. i figure we will just have to assume it was the insane acrobatics he does to get onto our high bed. dan and i call the er vet that is open on the weekends and of course they want to charge us an arm and a leg for shiloh to be seen. since we are living on borrowed money and have none, we decide to wait it out and see if his leg gets better...it doesn't. on sunday it is even worse. shiloh had turned into a three legged hobbit and of course he won't stay off his leg, he still wants us to play ball with him. at this point we feel horribly bad for not taking him to the vet in the first place so dan takes him. the vet can't find anything specific wrong with him but some doggy pain killers and $140 later shiloh seems to be doing better!

speaking of doggies, we found this one in our bedroom after a bath! i think we'll keep him!

skip the beans, on to the pudding...or carrots

this is logan after eating a delicious dinner of peas and carrots. he really did have peas even though it mostly looks like just carrots. he is so cute! he is a pretty good eater and likes a variety of foods. we are still adding new foods every week. he has mastered squash, peas, green beans, carrots, and bananas. the funniest thing is when he blows raspberries (as mentioned earlier). it is inevitably right after he has just taken a mouthful of delicious peas or squash and he sprays them all over. he is lucky he is so adorable because he makes a mess!
