We did it!

A LOT has happened since our last post! We finally finished school! Right after a crazy day of finals we drove to the Salt Lake Airport and flew to Washington D.C. for the American Association for Cancer Research Conference. We had two layovers, but Logan did really well on all three flights. The sights were amazing, and we feel incredibly blessed to have been able to experience them. Ry did great presenting the poster, and our research generated a lot of interest. Yeah! The flights home were a little more trying, as Logan decided that he had had enough! But, we made it home safe and sound, just in time for graduation! Our families came out to watch, but were a little preoccupied with Logan's three, I repeat three, monstrous blowouts during the ceremonies. Love that little guy. Logan had his 6 month birthday on Monday.... can't believe it! He is 16 lbs, 4 oz and about 28 inches long. The doctor didn't believe the scale though... he thinks that Loge is bigger. Logie also peed all over the doctor. Hehe. After graduation we were able to spend some time with Ry's family. Our wonderful neighbors, Zach and Ilene (who we miss like crazy already) threw us a good-bye barbecue. Then we packed and packed and packed. Logan was mostly cooperative. :) Last Tuesday we said our goodbyes and my mom and dad came and helped us move down to Ely for a little bit before we head off to medical school. Right now we are relaxing and enjoying our time with our crazy family. The pictures below are of some of our adventures...

Happy Days

April has flown by! Next week is finals, and next Saturday we fly to Washington D.C. for the conference. So excited! Easter was a lot of fun. Our friends Zack, Ilene and Anne invited us to eat breakfast with them and watch Sunday morning conference. Then we ate lunch with Zach, Ilene, Chris, Emily, and all the kids while we watched the Sunday afternoon conference. Later that night we had dinner with Kayla, Aaron, Zoa, Trevor, and Sara. So much good food! Logan looked so handsome in his Easter outfit from Grandma and Grandpa Poulsen. :) And we were very grateful for all the chocolate that came with the outfit. :) Last Friday was Senior Celebration, and somehow Ryley and I both won stuff in the raffle. I won a basketball, a BYU hat and a BYU shirt. Ryley won a tent, two sleeping bags, and two camping chairs. We have never won anything in our lives before, and don't count on ever winning anything again after that burst of luck. ;) Logan is growing more every single day. He can now balance on his hands and knees and really really wants to crawl. He babbles and screams. He laughs more and more, and loves to be tickled and thrown into the air. Still can't believe that our little guy is almost 6 months old! Well, that's about all the news for now... hope you all have a great week...ours is sure to be crazy with packing for D.C., packing for moving, and our last bout of finals EVER!!! (as undergrads at least....)


So handsome

Such a big guy....

Our little man grew up again today. Every single day something new and exciting happens. Logan's latest and greatest accomplishment----SITTING!! Out of nowhere he just started doing this:


and seems perfectly content to be in this position. He also loves swinging and bouncing on the ball. We put him down the slide today too, but he wasn't quite sure about that. Maybe in a few more months....







He also likes using his daddy as a swing...
Love the eyebrows...

I discovered fondant this week....this is a mario-cupcake-scene-thing I made for Aaron's birthday...need better food coloring next time...

Life with Logan...

Only 40 Days until graduation! Oh, that will be a good day. While I figured that school plus a baby would be difficult, I never would have guessed how hard it would be. Logan, by the way, is sweeter than ever. He loves to squeal and shriek and laugh. Right now he is pulling his dad's hair...which he thinks is one of the funniest things in the whole wide world. He gets more fun everyday, and is finally almost rolling over again! He did it all the time as a newborn, but all the fat stores he has accumulated have made it more difficult. But, he is doing it again, so we are all happy. At his four month checkup last week he weighed in at 15 lbs 2 oz, 26 inches long. He is now wearing 6-9 month clothes, the little monster. The AACR in Washington DC is getting closer too... we are very excited about our big trip, but I am still a little worried about being on a plane for 6 hours with Logie. Guess it will be an adventure! Another exciting event in our life.... Logan tried cereal! The Dr. said that because he can sit up so well, and because he shows such an interest in our food (he tries to grab it out of our mouths) that we should try it. Logan wasn't quite sure of what to do with the food... I'll post a video below. That is about it for us lately...hope all is well with everyone else!

Loves his bath time

Baby blue eyes
So Sweet

4 months old!



Our little guy is 4 months old today! He is such a little sweetie. He absolutely loves attention, and is quite the little ham when he is getting it. He loves to tell us stories in his cute little baby babble, and is getting chunkier by the hour. Logan has also recently discovered his toes, which have become his new favorite toy, and has learned how to put his binky in all by himself! There is also been a new addition to the family... Ryley's sister Kayla had her baby girl, Zoa. That makes me an aunt, Ry an uncle, and Logan a cousin! Ry and I are doing good...only about a month and a half left of classes...then we graduate! Yeah! We also found out that some of our cancer research has been accepted into the AACR, so we will be making a trip to Washington DC in April to present it at the conference. Here are some pics of our lives lately...


So sad..

Big talker... and 3 month old pictures

We love Logan! And each other! So stinking much! :) Life is great, the super bowl is today, and good food awaits....

Loves his baths...and eating towels...

Hehe.
Is he a perfect looking baby, or what?
He's our chunky hunk....or our hunky chunk...

Logan was talking so I decided to try and get video of it. He's getting really good at grabbing things, and grabbed the camera...and ate it. But it was still cute, so I posted it. :)
