Those are Logan’s favorite words… Infact Logan now gets down like the racers on the olympics and when we say set- he perks his little behind up then we say go and he will take off and run as fast as he can… Its so cute!!! He has such a funny run and it looks like he is out of control it cracks me up- half the time he is out of control- which is even funnier!!!

BUT that is not the reason I am writing this post- we now officially have two “on the move”… Grayson has been crawling for over a week now- but he wasn’t crawling up on his hands and knees for more than 2 crawls but now he has figured it out and is making tracks. He is movin’… While I love it because he isn’t as fussy now that he can get to the places he wants to go, it makes me so sad that I no longer have my “Baby”… Boo hoo

They grow up so fast and while I am so sad to leave that “baby” phase behind, and I am VERY happy to have a much happier toddler. Logan, on the other hand does not like this new development at all he does not like his little brother getting into his things and he is getting aggressive, hopefully they will become fast friends and enjoy playing together soon!!!

Our boys are growing so fast thought I would give you a quick update on them…

Logan
I can’t believe how different life is with a 2 1/2 year old then it was only a few months ago… Logan is growing and learning so quickly- I can’t believe it. His speech is coming along- it of course is not improving as fast as I would have liked but it is improving non the less… I talked to our pediatrician and she suggested getting more speech though another agency, through our insurance and having him checked out to see if he might have some type of learning disability… Please pray as we take these steps that God would lead these Doctors and help us to be willing to accept what the doctors have to say good or bad. Our speech therapist says that Logan is extremely bright and he seems to be fine in every other area, he just isn’t picking up speech as well as we would have liked, so we are praying he is just delayed and not having a disability…
He is on the other hand starting to potty train- the other night he all of a sudden decided he would like to start going pee pee on the potty just like daddy and so he got the step stool and climbed up there with Daddy’s help and peed in the potty- he has been doing it every day since then, he of course is no where near potty trained, but he is at least interested and seems to be able to tell when he needs to go etc. In fact today he went poo poo in the potty- we are very excited it feels good to at least be starting this process and Logan seems interested and excited too…
Grayson
Can you believe it he is almost 7 months old!!! Gray has been sitting up steadily for a few weeks now, and he is so close to crawling its unbelievable- he actually will crawl once or twice but then seems to not know what to do with his back legs and he stops and pushes his leg straight so he is a triangle or he flops on his belly… I am sure he will be really crawling in a week or so… He so bad wants to keep up with his brother he has been crying all the time because he can’t go where he wants to go and get what he wants to get so we are praying he learns how to crawl ASAP!!! He is also waking up in the middle of the night to try to crawl and that is SOOO annoying!!! I am so sick of him waking us up crying because he can’t seem to get it… Oh well, I don’t want him to grow up too fast, but I can’t stand this crying stage either (we finally just got out of a crying stage- ahhh)
Gray just had his 6 month check up- our pediatrician said he looks great- he weights 17.2 pounds and is in the 50th percentile for weight, and head and 30th for height- no wonder he looks so chubby- he is average weight but short all that chub has to go somewhere- so for gray it’s wrinkles
He is just the cutest little thing and even though he cries when he can’t crawl, when he is HAPPY he is HAPPY!!! I get people commenting all the time about how happy he is and what a great smile he has… If you look at him at all and acknowledge him at all you will be rewarded with a BIG Grayson smile- its too cute!!!
Grayson is eating everything under the sun- he is very much against nursing and the bottle- we have been having to force feed him to get him to drink any milk, he just wants to be big so badly that all he wants is baby food- and he is doing great eating all the food even the stuff he doesn’t like (veggies)…
I can’t believe how fast our boys are growing soon they will be wrestling (and I will be refereeing), I am sure we will soon be making regular trips to the ER- I am hoping I am wrong, but I am sort of counting on going to the ER multiple times

LOGAN
You have the face of an angel
With your beautiful smile
No one can resist those eyes-
What undeniable style!
~Linda Price






GRAYSON
Tiny hands and tiny feet
And those bright blue eyes
Innocence shines from you abound
Truly you are from heaven’s skies.
~Suzanne Smith







THE BOYS
I’ve been blessed to have
A brother like you.
You’re my pal, my buddy,
And my best friend too.
~Dana Roberts Clark




THE FAMILY
A Family stitched together with love… seldom unravels.




US
You are my shining moon; you are my glistening sun.
You are my inner peace; you are my abundant fun.
You are my roaming land; you are my wavy sea,
You are, and always will be, everything to me…
~Crystal Dawn Perry

I know we are getting old and chubby- but I think we still look great together 
I love, loving you, building a home and a family with you- I love that I feel more in love with you now than when we first met, or when we got married- I know that God has blessed us in so many ways and I just love seeing two of the many blessings- sitting right in front of us all day long… I love you baby!!! XOXO
