Logan’s new report card from his doctor visit today showed some big changes..

(% based on Stats from Babies Logan’s age)

Height = 92 percentile (Previously 82%)
Head = 96 percentile (Previously 88%)
Weight = 79 percentile (previously 83%)

Ok..so we saw a drop in the weight percentile, but that was just due to his head growth sucking up all the calories.

Logan also had to have THREE more shots today, poor little baby, but he was a trooper and got over it quickly.  However, he was a bit groggy the rest of the day.

       Logan seems to pick up new things each week…and I really should start writing about them so we remember when they first happened. 
Two weeks ago he started doing something which Bonnie really appreciates….sleeping through the night.  We put him to bed before 10pm and he sleeps all the way ’till around 5am.  When he did this twice in a row we thought it was the new routine.  But then he had a set back for a couple nights…however since then he’s pretty much kept to it.   Hopefully it sticks.

  Grasping objects is another new amazing feat.  Stick a cuddly toy on his chest..he’ll give it a good hug, and probably a bit of a chew.  Put a pacifier near his face, he’ll grab your hand and bring it closer.  And his favorite…in his rocker swing he likes to hold the hanging grip and pretend he’s steering his vessel through the Atlantic ocean.  Quite an imagination our Logan has.
   Ticklish little boy too.  When Bonnie gives Logan his bath and cleans under his chin, it sets him into a bit of a giggling fit.  We’ve got to try to capture that event on video too. 

So many moments to remember.

I guess he thinks his name’s pretty funny.

      Bonnie’s sisters were here for a few days last week…they all came to say hi to Logan for the first time.  Logan was on his best behavior and even allowed them to have the honor of being sat on.  Bonnie, Logan, Gloria and I went to play tennis at our local park.  Logan slept thru most of the event with his stroller shields up and at full strength.  Bonnie and Gloria hit well, but I didn’t seem to get into my stride until the last 10 minutes (isn’t that always the case!).  I was sore for the next 2 day…boy I am out of shape.  Hopefully I can talk some friends into playing tennis more often.  And since Logan seemed agreeable to it, maybe Bonnie and I will try to sneak out occasionally too.
     Dora celebrated the BIG 3-0 with us. The pictures we posted of her during this time she’s all smiles….but we have others.  We went to Outback for dinner which was nice since I haven’t had a steak in a while.  Bonnie had to forgo the birthday ice-cream cake for the sake of Logan, but the rest of us enjoyed it.
     After all the sisters left on Sunday, Logan seemed a little upset the rest of they day.  Bonnie thought it was because he missed them….I thought it was due to the noise level dropping  back down to normal. 
     We are very honored they took the time and long flight to come out…I guess the ball is in our court for the next visit.

  Yesterday Dora, Bonnie’s youngest sister, arrived.  She got in some early ‘Logan-Time’   before the rest of the clan arrive, but I think her loyalties still primarily lay with Scottie. Gloria, Yvonne and possibly her youngest kid Kevin will be flying in on Wednesday.  I have a feeling I will be implementing some ‘timeouts’ this week…maybe for myself

You ever see that episode of Friends where the Credit Card company calls Rachel to make sure she’s ok because she hasn’t been using her card?   No?   I watch too much TV.

Anyways, I received an automated message on our phone from Wells Fargo stating that they noticed that I haven’t been using my ATM card.  Don’t I realize all the places I can use it?

What exactly do they expect the outcome of me listening to that message to be?  Am I supposed to say…..”Oh yeah, I have been completely ignoring my ATM card….let me get that baby out and go to town”.     I think it would be more like….”Why are they bothering me at home about my ATM usage and why they snooping on me?”    Dumb.  Dumb.  Dumb.

Now I’m off to fill up my car with Premium Unleaded.
