Logan is 2-1/2 years old

Didn't we just celebrate  Logan's 1st birthday? I can't believe that in just 6 short months, we'll be celebrating his 3rd birthday.

Logan is many things, but I think that social and sweet are the 2 words that describe him best.Logan loves to be around people, both kids and adults. He also loves to cuddle with whomever doesn’t have a bubble around them.

In the last 6 months, 2 events come to my mind. The first occurred when Taylor showed Logan how to get out of his crib. After a few escapes, we turned their cribs into toddler beds. But once they both started jumping on them, we figured they wouldn’t last long. So we turned their toddler beds into twin size beds. They’re more sturdy… The second event occurred when Taylor showed Logan how to take his diaper off and smear poop everywhere. Within a few weeks, Taylor stopped but Logan continued. So we started potty training them. It’s a work in progress…

There are a few more things that come to my mind since Logan’s second birthday:

- He always opens up Oreos and eats the frosting before he eats the cookies, even though no one ever showed him to do it.
- He enjoys chasing ants and ladybugs, and kills them with no hesitation.
- He loves to hug, kiss, and cuddle with Kendall. She’s totally got him wrapped around her little finger.
- He often calls Kendall Beautiful, Cutie, Pretty, and Gorgeous. And she likes it!
- He loves to go to church and put on his Sunday best.
- He often takes shampoo and lotion right off Taylor, which obviously upsets Taylor.
- He is very helpful when I vacuum or unload the dishwasher.
- He knows all the letters of the alphabet.
- He counts up to 10.

His favorite tv show: Mickey Mouse (He watches it every night before going to bed)
HIs favorite movie: Bolt
His favorite toy: cars (He is very attached to them)
His favorite song: ABC (He sometimes sings the tune with random words)

Logan’s speech has increased dramatically these last 6 months. But I can’t help but laugh at some things that come out of his mouth, like when he tells Taylor to Stop it! Or to go to Time Out! when he misbehaves. He cracks me up.

Logan has also become very independent and wants to do a lot on his own. He gets undressed on his own, drinks from a glass on his own, peels his own Clementine, etc…

He is the sweetest boy, ever. Even though I often look forward to bedtime, I actually miss him once he’s in bed and asleep. I love him dearly.
