Bored and hanging out with logan





That is a dresser Rory and I re-did for a date night, it will be going into Logans room.
Right now, Rory is at work til 10 tonight, and I am sitting here watching Logan's favorite, Bubble Guppies, weirdest show ever. I just finished decorating the present I made for Vanessa's baby shower, and now I need to clean my house, but instead I am just hanging out. Fun, but I am extremely bored. So I will post some pictures of my recent adventures :)

Maybe invite a friend over? Who knows.

Happy Birthday Logan!

A year ago today, I discovered a whole new kind of love. Rory and I fell even more in love with eachother. Our family became a little bigger, and we became happier than we thought we ever could be. We met our little sunshine. We were amazed at how perfect you were, and are even more amazed by how even more perfect you are today. You make our life's even brighter than it was before, we didn't even know it could get more bright. We love you Logan. You taught us so much. You are so smart. You are so cute. You are SO perfect. We wouldn't trade you for the world.

All moved in!

We are finally moved into our apartment. It is so cute and we love it lots! It is so different living on our own, but we love it. We live in Herriman behind the high school in the brand new apartments called farm gate. It is a 2 bedroom 2 bathroom. Very nice, wood floors and dark wood cupboards. Logan is still weirded out by it all, but he is adjusting. My parents are very happy for us. My mom was a little sad that we were moving, but we visit frequently, as does she. Keith was sad because he wouldnt be able to hold Logan and play with him all the time like he does, it was a little sad seeing that, but like I said, we will come over as much as possible. Logan is learning so many new words. He says whats that, dog dog, puppy, bye bye, dada, mama, grampa, ball and lots of others! Oh and his new favorite word is CACA! Like the toilet is caca, and garbage. Haha!

Next Chapter :)

Rory, Logan and I will be signing a lease to an apartment on monday. I am pumped! It is in Herriman, about 10 minutes from my moms home so we will be close to visit a lot still :) We are very excited. We are debating in between the 2 bedroom or the 3 bedroom. Either one would be nice for us! Logan is getting very close to walking. He is getting so big! I am so excited to move and be completely independent, I feel like packing up everything right now :) But I know I shouldn't, but I can always dream right? Anywho, Rorys poor grandma Hoffman is in the hospital. She fell and broke her pelvic bone in two spots. She didn't look to good when we went to see her. I love his Grandma like my own. I know Rory adores her and Logan as well. We know she is ready to be back in heaven with her husband and soul mate. I know that is how Rory and I will be, we will be growing very old together. He is my everything. I love him more than I could ever explain. Little Logan is so special to us, and we love him so much as well. He brings us so much happiness. We never thought we could be as happy as we are now, we didn't think we could get much happier than we already were and he proved us wrong :). We are going to pay Rory's next check and a little bit extra to our car so we can be at least 6 months ahead on that while we are in the apartment. I am so excited! Well gotta go!

Oh my gosh!

It is getting closer and closer til Logan turns one! I can not believe this past year has flown by so fastly. He is just so smart. Rory and I never thought we could be any happier, until little Logan arrived and our lives have been brightened by all his little sun rays. We love his so much! Rory and I were talking last night about having another little one. We decided once Rory gets hired onto the Post Office, we will try for another. That should be with in a few months. We are definitely excited! Not sure if I wrote this last time, but I got approved for the botox injections for my migraines. I get my first set on the 19th. I am so excited to be migraine free! Logan is due for his second hair cut. His hair gets long so fast! Speaking of rapidly growing hair, Mothers day was last week, my very first! What does this have to do with hair, you ask? Well, my present! Rory got my the three bottle package of ovation hair therapy. Yes, I love it! My hair has felt healthier already! I can't wait for it to grow a little longer, and thicker of coarse! He also got me an outfit from the Buckle. I love it dearly. I love him so much. He is my prince charming. He does so much for us, I appreciate him so much! I am very in love with him. I am getting very excited for Logan and Knox's birthday party. We are doing it on the same day since they are so close any ways. Than, on Logans real birthday, Rory and I will be taking him to the Zoo. I can't wait! He is so close to walking. He just gets terrified when he realizes he is finally doing it! A few days ago, a family friend killed her self. I won't go into details, it was pretty traumatic and sad, but it really opened my eyes to a few things. Life is so crazy, and death is so scary. It comes so fast and leaves nothing in the dust. I hate thinking about it, because I know it can happen to anyone at any time. It just makes me cherish my life, Logans life, Rorys life, and all of my families life so much. It makes me cherish everyone I love. Well, I am off! Good bye!

29 days and Logan is 1!

I am so excited for Logans birthday. His birthday is in 29 days! To think that this time last year I was pregnant and being told to expect him at any minute. Rory and I are doing great. He got a job as a security guard and is working on getting into the Post Office. We have decided that if he gets the job at the Post Office, we will try for another baby and move into an apartment. We are stoked! Poor little Logan is getting 5 teeth at once. His top two fangs, bottom two fangs and a molar. Poor buddy, and as upset and grumpy as he is, he keeps up with lots of hugs and kisses! Right now, Rory is working the night shift til midnight. Logan is taking a nap, I just finished making donuts and now Reily and I are watching Twilight. Yep! I have been in this baking mode lately. Not sure why, but I love it! As well as cleaning mode, craft mode! It is fun and keeps me busy while Rory works all the time. Logan and I also play out side a lot and eat cookies and watch cartoons and his favorite movies. Really, all of my day revolves around that sweet little boy. I love it! I love being a mom and a wife, full time :) Some times it gets difficult, but it is worth every minute. Logan is with me 24/7. He goes every where with us. We love it that way. Even though some times I can not go to the bathroom by my self unless he is asleep or do any crafts til he is asleep I would not change a single thing. We had a great Easter. Logan got spoiled with lots of treats and toys. He loves his sippy cups. We are starting on the weaning process now. Anyways, gotta go hang with my family. Bye!

Been a while!

My amazing hubs!
Logan a week before his hair cut, LONG hair! Loves his buzz shirt!
He looks so little!
Hippie and all natural baby!
My handsome big boy!
It has been a while since I have written here and decided it was time for an update. Logan got his first hair cut last month. It was so bitter sweet. He looks so much older now. He is just about walking, in fact he knows how to walk he is just to afraid to do it now. He will do it eventually though, he is super smart and very advanced. He is now 10 1/2 months old. We are planning his birthday party since it is at the end of next month. It is weird that he is almost one. Rory and I are doing wonderful. He is the most amazing husband, I can not say it enough! I had a migraine the other day so bad I could not move, I had not eaten anything all day, that night he went and got me dinner and helped me eat. I could not ask for a better man in mine and Logans life. He truly is perfect.
Logans favorite words, dada, mama, papa, he is learning dog dog and he almost has byebye down perfectly. He loves chicken nuggets, and he is finally eating solids better. We had a choking scare last month, it was very scary and tramatic, but he is fine and dandy and doing great. He loves feeding the dogs his food and loves feeding mama his food as well. LOVES cheerios and ice cream. He is on a perfect schedule. He also loves oatmeal. He is getting his two fang teeth on top in. That would be number 9 and 10. He has the longest eye lashes. I love him so much! He LOVES Sesame Street and Toy Story, Hates socks and shoes, but he loves his Toy Story socks :).
I don't know why I have been so blessed. I have the perfect husband, perfect baby, and perfect family. With everything going on in the world, I feel compelled to really appreciate how much I have. A healthy family, a safe home, clean water and food, I feel guilty for ever saying my life was hard because in all actuality, I have a dream life to those in Haiti and other places. Be grateful for what you have.

Sometimes, I wish my heart wasn't so big. I end up worrying about the homeless man I saw walking around or the guy with cancer I noticed or even the person begging for money. It makes my heart ache and tummy turn. I truly wish I could help those in need, I would in a heart beat.

I have no idea why those turned out small but what ever. Anyways, my insurance approved the botox injections in my neck for my migraines. I am so lucky, it is really hard to be approved for them because they are so expensive and you have to have migraines pretty bad. I get my first set on May 19th. I have a better out look now. I can not wait to wake up with out a headache and no more migraines, at least not as many. Tomorrow I am hoping to go get a pedicure and maybe a new shirt? Rory is too sweet. He always tells me how much I do, and tells me I need a little pampering. Of coarse I don't shop all the time and pamper all the time, so he forces me too when I absolutely need it. He is just to amazing and caring. Anyways, off to bed! night!
