The Desitin Incident

There is a night in December that will forever be known as The Desitin Incident. Brian and I had put Logan to bed and settled down in our bed. About an hour later we heard some bumps in his room, this isn't terribly unusual, he has late night tendencies. Then we heard more bumps and then some scrapes. After losing rock, paper, scissors, Brian went in to investigate. I knew it wasn't good when I heard him say, "Oh....my....God." He didn't sound scared or mad, so I figured it was just something messy. Ooooh boy, was it messy. Logan found the 3/4 full tube of Desitin and squirted it out EVERYWHERE! He rubbed it on his legs (he even removed his pants to do so), on his face, on his nightstand, on his bookshelf, in the carpet and all over his CD player. It was a greasy, baby powder scented nightmare! He knew he was busted as soon as Brian walked in and so he started to cry. We couldn't be mad because he just looked so greasy and pathetic. I asked him what he did and he said he found stuff. I asked him if it was a good idea to smear it everywhere and he said no. At least he's aware of the problem. Even 3 weeks later I'm still finding pockets of Destin smeared on stuff. At least it smells good!

Logan's Christmas Letter


Logan got to meet "Santa" the other day. He did so great, just walked right up to him and had a nice conversation. So different than his mother who would scream and hyperventilate at the thought of sitting on Santa's lap... This evening I transcribed this letter for Logan: Dear Santa, My name is Logan. For Christmas I want a new Thomas train, a freight car, a red freight car, a purple dinosaur, a yellow dinosaur, an orange dinosaur, a mad orange dinosaur, cars, Doc the Hudson Hornet, racecars, new trains, new trucks and a bear. Love Me (Logan)
We put the letter in the mail box and I explained how the whole process worked (the mailman, the north pole, etc) He was very intrigued!

Halloween....a bit late

I know it's almost Christmas and I haven't posted the Halloween pics! Here are some cute ones of Logan and Kaylee. Logan was an explorer for Halloween. He had a great time trick or treating with Kaylee and handing out candy at my dad's house. He was so cute, he'd go up to people's doors and knock and at the same time say "I'm knocking on your door." I guess just so there was no confusion. Then he'd say "More candy, please." At least he said please. He said Trick or Treat a few times, but mostly just asked for more candy. He really "got" the concept of Halloween (weird as that concept is) this year, but the next morning asked if we were going to ask people for candy again. He thought (hoped) it was an every day occurrence.

Funny Kid Story!

Logan is so funny...Whenever he doesn't get his way I say, "That's the breaks, kid," because that's the annoying response my dad always gave me. Logan usually screams back, "That's NOT the breaks." Anyway, last night he made a big mess out of his dinner (which is not at all unusual), I said, "Why do you make such big messes, Logan?" He continued smearing food on his placemat and said, without looking up, "That's the breaks, mom." It was both absolutely endearing and a little annoying. :)

My Little Goofball

Logan loves to take my kitchen utensils into the tub with him (hey, free bath toys!) and the strainer is his favorite. He told me that it is his "helmet to keep him safe." He's so funny!

Updates



Our garden has been a huge success! The corn and onions are beautiful and delicious.




Logan got his first pairs of "big boy" underwear. He likes to wear them on his head!







Aaaahhhh---I've been so busy the last few weeks, I haven't had a spare second to update the blog! I don't have the time or the energy for any witty remarks, so I'll just upload pics. Enjoy!
