New Scents

I'll be 12 weeks pregnant tomorrow and we made it through about 11 weeks this time before Mike's deodorant, soap and shampoo started to make me sick. In fact, about a week ago I mentioned that I didn't think he'd have to change them this go around...seems as soon as I said it, we were in the toiletries aisle of target picking out new scents. Poor Mike.

This afternoon I went to dump L's diapers in the wash and while I'm usually pretty good about holding my breath until it's all closed up, I caught a good smell of it this time and with this heightened smell sensitivity, things didn't go well. So, we went and picked up some big girl undies and I'm hoping that within a week we'll be totally out of diapers. She's been really good about going in the potty as long as it's not pee (she actually gets really, really upset if she goes in her diaper), but I think because she's got the diapers on I've gotten lazy about taking her other than when she asks. This should whip me into shape and just get it all done with. How nice it'll be to be done with diapers for 6 months before we have to start again!

I thought about taking a picture of her in them, but I think I'll respect her privacy on this one and post the one I took of just her sweet face.

Exciting News!

Logan has some BIG news to share!

Sometime around March 6th

We will be welcoming her little brother or sister!

Surprise!

(I posted a ton today, so don't forget to read below)

Logan and Her Baby

Logan has some new ideas for what she should use her baby doll stroller for. Her favorite is to sit in it herself and eat her snacks.

While we were in FL, Logan went from having 0 baby dolls to having THREE. Her daddy bought her one at Cracker Barrel, her Tita got her one that talks and her Mimi and Grandaddy got her an American Girl Bitty Baby. She's always asking for her "be-be" and wants to push them around in the stroller, feed them from her sippy cup and throw them. We're working on that. She's recently taken to napping with the be-be's, though, as she wants them to go night-night, too. Here she is sleeping with her bitty baby:

Mimi and Grandaddy

Logan had a great time in Miami with my parents. She has dubbed my mom her Mimi, which I think stems from me pointing to pictures and saying, "this is MY mommy." It's cute, and she's still asking for her now. She can't quite get Grandaddy out yet, but we're working on that one, too.

She was one spoiled little girl while we were down there! She loved every minute of it and is still talking about the things we did down there. Thanks for such a great time!

PB&J

Logan really, really enjoys a good PB&J sandwich. Of course, this girly girl can only stand it while she's eating, as soon as she's done she fusses to be hosed down. A girl after my own heart.

Water Baby

I thought we had taken more pool pictures and then I looked through the camera and realized that this was all we had! We were very busy with all of the swimming, so, it doesn't surprise me that the camera got a little ignored. Logan really loved the full time access to the "wa-wa" and was constantly asking to get in. We eventually decided to split up the shifts and took turns taking her in so that none of us would get tired of the pool. It made for some wonderful sleep on her part, though!

We took what we thought was our little baby floaty down, but realized we had only brought the sunshade...so, Logan would like to say, "Thank you, Aunt Carolyn, for sharing your float with me!"

Logan had no lack of disney swim suits. When we arrived in Miami, Logan was greeted with an entire Disney swim wardrobe from her grandparents and she definitely got good use out of every one of them.

Unfortunately, this was the only suit I got a picture of.

New Park

My parents have a big park across the street from the house. Up until now, it was just a big grassy area with a poor excuse for a playground. I always thought it was due for an update, especially with the amount of kids it had on it daily, but didn't see one come up before we left. Thankfully, since we moved, they DID re-do the playground! It's quite a beautiful little area, now, and has plenty for little ones to do. Unfortunately for us, it rained for a few days before we arrived, and as you can see, the playground was a little flooded. Logan did get to enjoy the slides because they were on turf...maybe next time we head down there L will get to use the rest of the equipment.
