Wow, has October gone by fast! This month has been packed to the brim, and to tell the truth, I'm kind of relieved that it is done with. Here is a little of what we have been up to:
Logan loves Historic Wheeler Farms. His favorite part is, of course, grabbing the animals. :)
Our little man is one! He has grown up so much! Here are some of the things that he now loves to do:
- Logan runs everywhere. Despite how much he eats, he is now skin and bones due to the fact that he just doesn't stop moving... ever.
- He loves to climb on everything!
- Besides his own little language, we also get the occasional "Hi dad" (whenever Ry walks into the room), "No, No, NO!", "mama", "dada", and "nahnah" (night night)
- He knows what a birdie says - "tweet tweet" and what a lion says - "raaarrr"
- He also knows sign language for "story", and boy does that boy love to read. I'm pretty sure we are one week away from finishing every board book in our library. I'm fine with this, as it is the only time I can get him to sit still. :)
- Logan also LOVES to dance. And this little boy has got rhythm! As soon as a song comes on, Logie will start bouncing, swaying, shaking his head, twirling...
- He also thinks that he is hilarious. And actually loves to get into trouble. He will get our attention, pull a cord out of the plug-in, and laugh when we tell him no. He also laughs at spanks, flicks, time out... so naughty. Other naughty activities that he enjoys... pulling all the leaves off my poor abused plants, flinging all the dirt out of said plants, eating the nasty pile after I sweep, pulling everything off of my shelves (including pantry shelves), biting me, throwing his food across the room...
- He also likes to shake his head no at us.. sometimes at such an intensity that is knocks him down...
- Logan thinks that it is hilarious that I put mascara on. And stands in front of me laughing every morning when I do so.
- He is a very good "almost sharer." He will pretend to give everyone around him everything. He just takes it back last minute.
- He's very sweet with his stuffed animals and babies. He gives them lots of loves, and always shares his binky with them.
- His favorite game of all time is the "get you" game. He is my gym membership.
- He is now approximately 21 lbs, 30 inches, and has 8 teeth. :)
For Logan's friend party, we had a Halloween party! It was so much fun, and Logan was ecstatic to have all of his little play group buddies at his house. The camera was lost in the midst of the many children, so unfortunately there are no photos to document the chaos, but it really was so much fun!
Logan with the awesome car/track set from Uncle Chad and Aunt Chelsey. He loves it so much! Today he drove one of the cars of Ryley's face while making the "vroom" sound.
He was actually pretty good at opening his presents.
He also loves this xylophone from Grandma and Grandpa Poulsen. He always looks so proud when he manages to make music.
Logan did a very fine job with demolishing his birthday cake.
Ironically, Logan does not like to be sticky or messy...

Silly little man.
For his birthday, we got him foam blocks. He started doing the cutest thing in the whole world last night. Some blocks have holes in them, and some blocks are round cylinders that fit into the holes. Logan will spend forever putting the peg into the hole, and then taking it back out. It is so much fun to watch him learn and grow! And so very sad to watch him get SO frustrated when it doesn't go in as quickly as he would like it to. :) Oh yes, sometimes he attempts it with his mouth.
Logan carving pumpkins! About two hours later we all came down with a stomach bug, so our pumpkins never really got finished.
He really liked to pretend to scrape out the guts

For Halloween Ryley and Logan were pirates, and I was their booty. ;)
We went down to the trunk or treat in Provo this year to spend time with our friends, the Thatchers. Logan really like Zach's costume. :)
