Empathy?

Logan and Forest interact more and more each day. At about four months they seemed to realize that the other existed and was always with them. Recently I’ve seen some things to make me wonder if they are expressing empathy for each other. Logan was having a “melt down” one afternoon and [...]


9 Month Doc Appt

Just got back from our 9 month check up and boy are the boys healthy and hearty!
Logan was 17 lbs 12 oz at 6 months and is 20 lbs today. He was 26 1/2 inches tall and is now 28 inches.
Forest was 15 lbs 12 oz at 6 months and is 18 [...]


what is in a name

Logan has responded to his name for a long time now, seems like almost from the beginning of him responding at all. Forest has started to demonstrate that knowledge as well during the past two weeks. It’s neat to be able to say their names and they turn around. Often times if [...]


Bibs and Big Boy Clothes

For the first 8 months of the boys’ lives, bibs were my best friend. First they were handy for all the acid reflux induced spit up then I switched to plastic backed ones and they kept the teething drool to a minimum clothing impact. ‘Cus let me tell you, Logan DROOLS. And [...]


Advancements and Giggles

The boys started doing something pretty amazing this past weekend. They started trying to put the rings on the base, trying to put the cubes into the holes, trying to put the ball onto the truck, to put the shapes into the holes. It’s really neat to watch them understand what to do [...]


Getting Into Trouble

Here is a cute series of pictures of life these days. Baby sees something he’s not supposed to touch and is drawn to it like a moth to the flame. Forest stands there and giggles at me when I say “NO” and move his hand away from the stereo equipment. I have [...]


Tooth two

Logan got his second tooth in on Saturday!
I know that I owe an update on the trip to Vegas and I have TONS of pictures. I will get to all of that as soon as I get us settled back into being home again.


8 Full Months

Talk about some busy little boys. Forest and Logan work so hard each day it’s no wonder they sleep so hard at night.
Logan has his first tooth and crawls all over the house. He chases the cats about and climbs up into a standing position from anything and everything at just [...]


1st Tooth - Logan

Logan got his first tooth on his 8 Month Birthday! I’m so excited for him!


Crawling - Forest

Forest took all of 12 hours to crawl as soon as his brother mastered it. Twin telepathy? Who knows. But I do know that I have spent all day running like a crazy woman trying to keep up with them both. Many mom’s warned me about this phase so I knew [...]
