More of Dinnertime

I've been trying to post this video for a few weeks and keep getting frustrated by how long it takes. This is only half of it - I'm working on part 2. And it is sideways. I just love the way he shovels in food!

A picture of a picture

Logan's school pictures were available for viewing yesterday. They took 3 poses of each child. Logan only smiled in this one, so it's the only pose I bought. He wasn't unpleasant in the other pictures, he was just staring at the camera like, "are we done yet?".

And I proudly overcame my MUST HAVE THEM ALL - FIRST SCHOOL PICTURES - NEED ALL OF THEM urge and only got 2 sheets! He has his 1 year pictures next month anyway, so I didn't see the need for more. On that note, I just 5 minutes ago read the blog of my friend in KC who is taking his picture and our Christmas pictures. She wrote that at her shoot yesterday it was 34 degrees! What?! I guess I'll have to rethink our wardrobe for this whole thing. Merry Christmas from the Thomases wearing ski gear!

FOOD!

Tonight was spaghetti night. A first.

New tricks

Sorry, Faithful Followers, for the long break I took from posting pictures. Fall is my favorite season, but it is always so busy!

We're all well now - Andrew got the worst of it again. He always seems to fall harder than the rest of us. And I'm honestly not just saying that because he whines the most (though sometimes that's the case!).

Logan has so many fun new tricks and I'm just trying to keep up!

Logan can distinguish between light and fan when looking up at the ceiling. He just points at lights, but if he's looking at the fan, he points and moves his arm in a circle.

Logan is a climber. I think I'm going to buy him a helmet and mouth guard (to protect his 2 teeth). We haven't had any accidents yet, but last week I caught him doing this and last night he was STANDING on it holding on to the top rack.


Logan still loves to push things around the house, so last week I bought him a new push toy. I was nervous thinking that since it has wheels he wouldn't be able to keep up. I was way wrong. This little guy is fast! I don't have a good picture of it because he gets distracted by the camera, but the proud look on his face when he's pushing this thing around is priceless. He flashes us a big grin and looks up often to make sure we're still watching him.

Logan is also waving bye bye now. It is a little delayed, though, sometimes. He'll wave right after the departing person has given up and turned to go.

And he gives kisses, too. But not unless he feels like it. He's not a circus monkey about it. No performaces. No showing off. That's just the way he rolls. . .

HAPPY BIRTHDAY POPPY!

Happy Birthday Dad! We love you and hope that your next 60 years are just as rewarding. . . .and more restful.

And then he threw up.

Here's Logan in the back of our car at Saturday's TCU game. He was doing great - making it a few minutes into the 2nd quarter. I was hopeful that our 1st quarter baby was going to be a half-time baby. Then it started raining. I ran him to cover in my coat. We could still see the game and were mostly content. Then he got a leaky diaper, so I had to make a run for it to the car. . . in the rain. We had fun in the back of the car with the back open watching the rain and then we went home during half time.

Sunday Logan threw up everything he ate. I took him to the Dr. yesterday suspecting an ear infection, too. Double whammy - virus and ear infection. ANOTHER ear infection! After an antibiotic shot in each leg, Logan's ear is feeling much better. He's still having some stomach issues though. Logan will have two more shots tomorrow and two more on Friday. This is the saddest week ever! Nonny came to the rescue on Sunday night. She will be here until he's better. Thanks mom!

Picture Day

Today is Logan's very first school picture day. Let's hope he doesn't have a blowout before it is his turn.
