Growing up is hard to do…
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 ![]()
