Logan Turns 3!

    I keep wanting to type in t-w-o. But he's not. My BABY is three. Logan had a wonderful birthday and his party hasnt even happened yet. More than anything it was a reminder that its the little things that are most special. We ate at Fiesta so my little Wolverine could enjoy his beloved spicy salsa and guacamole. He was pretty thrilled with lunch and loved wearing the birthday hat. He was even more thrilled that the remainder of his afternoon involved selecting toys :) He's as bad as Kal-El about needing to view and inspect every toy before making a selection but he finally found what made his heart content. A wrestling ring with wrestlers. I wasnt surprised in the least. I love MMA but cant stand male soap stories...err I mean wrestling lol but Chris bear loves it so I know where Logan gets it! He hasnt put it down one time since he's had it. He's even made french fries fight in it :D
   I cant say enough about this child. I know he's mine and Im completely biased but he is just one of a kind in every way. I've never ever seen a happier spirit on anyone, at any age. He is happiness defined. He's my little breath of fresh air and I wish constantly that I could be more like him. He has taught me as much if not more than I will ever teach him. I'm not one to go on and on especially to their faces about how beautiful I think my babies are (lets face it Kal-El doesnt need a confidence booster at all, he could loan it out) but I stare at Logan constantly. His pouty lips and long eyelashes, his bigger than life hair I wish I could freeze him....and I would except he TALKS now. Its music to my ears. I cherish each and every word that leaves his face.  I've come to find out over the course of the last few months how much he has been soaking in but just not communicating to us. I have spent so many nights worrying, crying, and researching what I could do to help him. As big of a control freak as I am...he has taught be patience and acceptance. When I finally relaxed a little and understood and  accepted him as he was he came out of his shell. We have big personalities in this house..we have big hearts too but his is the biggest. Every step of the way he was/is perfect just like he is. I couldnt be more proud. He calls us all by name now...even our family pets. Right down to our frogs and extended family. He asks for P-za (pizza) and kisses every single day and more often than not he gets both. Sometimes I have to steal kisses and thats not easy. He is very physical and agile. I really think he will be the athlete of the family. He is non stop and full of life. I wouldnt have him any other way. I cant wait to see his little face light up at his pizza party. My love for him is stronger than adamantium :)

Father's Day 2014

  Father's Day and Logan's birthday always go hand on hand every year. They are only a day apart and I always joke that I got Chris the gift that keeps giving sense the timing was so perfect. Honestly, its a gift itself having Chris as their father. He believes in them as much as I do and has given them so much more then he ever had in such a short amount of time. The most important being love. The look on their faces every single time he comes home is priceless. It never gets old for me to see and I know thats even more true for him.
   We had a very relaxing day at my moms. We ate. We swam. We got bit by fire ants. Well I did and ended up needing a benedral that practically knocked me out, but not before I scarfed down a huge piece of raspberry cheese cake. In between falling asleep I would shout out "tell the boys to keep their mouth closed in the water....they can dry drown" Im sure my antihistamine was a gift in and of itself for Chris. I'm not quiet much....ever. ;) It wouldnt be fathers day without mentioning once again what an awesome grandfather I have. My father hasnt been in my life for 8 years now and its honestly hard to notice bc of how wonderful my Poppa has always been. We share a very special bond. I'm a very lucky girl to have so many wonderful, caring men in my life. Love them all immensely and I know its bc of them that my little superheros will be incredible fathers themselves one day!
