Logan had attended a couple of birthday recently.  It was Bailey’s 1st birthday party at Pump It Up Junior last Sunday where only Logan and I attended, and yesterday was Brandon’s 5th Birthday at the Silver Creek Sports Complex.  For Brandon’s party all of us were there to help celebrate. 

  Both of these places have inflatable jump houses.  It is strange but Logan has never liked to jump in them, or may be he is just scared of them, but either way he does not seem interested.  He would rather run around the outside of them.  Last week, he told me that “I will watch” rather than going inside.  When we arrived at Brandon’s party yesterday, Mckayla and Jesselyn were excited to see Logan; they tried to take him into the big jump house, but Logan just gently declined their invite.  Even with Daddy inside the jumper, Logan still would rather come sit with Connor and I.  When we moved on to the open soccer field, Logan had a good time kicking some balls and playing with the noodles.  He however only would play with daddy and seemed too shy to play with others.  We need to figure out how to help him become more social…maybe it means we need to stop babying him as much.  That will be tough for us.

  Connor learned how to sit just in time.  He was sitting up with me during the entire playtime.  He got to sit with his friends Marcus and Ellie, and he enjoyed watching the big kids running around.  These days Logan enjoys group snacks more than before; he actually now eats some of the foods at parties.
