We all celebrated birthdays in March! :) Logan turned 5 months, Bailey turned 5 years old, I turned 28, and Kevin turned the BIG 3-0!!
This month has been great because we started getting record high temperatures (for March) and have been able to spend lots of time outdoors. With temperatures in the 70's and 80's, Logan has been able to wear some of his shorts and t-shirts. So cute! We even bought him a bathing suit. :) He loves the water, so it will be great to see him in a pool one of these days!
Kevin, Logan, and I took a weekend getaway to Boulder while we had tile put into our master bathroom. It was a great little vacation, and we had a wonderful time. Logan loved eating at The Cheesecake Factory, and walking around Pearl Street. The weather was amazing!!!
Logan is now eating banana, and sweet potato, along with his rice cereal. We tried apple, but he wasn't really a fan. Going to give it a shot again soon, along with avocado, peas, and zucchini! He's also napping much better these days and slept through the night TWICE! WOOO! :)
WOW! I'm very behind on Logan's blog! You can tell that the last two months have been a little rough because I haven't had the time to update it, but we'll get to all those details later.
At Logan's 4 month well child check, he got 3 more shots and an oral vaccine. Poor little guy HATED this visit because we had to wake him from a nap, and I'm pretty sure he remembered the shots he got the last time, because he started screaming the minute we laid him on the table for the doctor to examine. :(
Height: 26 inches (79%) Weight: 17 lbs 1 oz (79%) Head Circumference 17.25 in. (89%)
UPDATES:
Logan went on his first plane ride and vacation to Austin, TX! He did great on the plane, and we got compliments from everyone around us on how happy and content he was the entire time! :) We were so proud!!!
He also began breastfeeding 3 days before our trip to Texas! I had been trying to get him to latch on, with no luck, since he was born. I was getting VERY sick of pumping, so the fact that he decided to start breastfeeding out of nowhere was amazing! I nursed him on the plane and he was so happy and comforted! I really think that made all the difference. :)
Logan's sleep had REALLY declined. :( He had started doing so well and having long stretches at night, but after our trip to Austin, everything went downhill. That's the main reason why I haven't had the energy to update the blog. Logan was waking up every 1-3 hours ALL night, every night. It was so hard. :(
Logan found his toes! He also started to roll to his side from his back and began reaching for objects!
Loves his toesies!!!
We also started solids this month! We weren't sure if he was ready yet, but he always seemed hungry, and breast milk, and formula were not doing the trick. We started with organic brown rice cereal that I made myself using the Baby Bullet baby food machine! It's so fun! We also gave him banana (which he LOVED), avocado (didn't like), sweet potato (sort of liked) and apple (didn't like). ;)
Logan turned 3 months on January 20th! He has done quite a bit in the month of January! Here is a breakdown of fun accomplishments/events:
Logan gave up his pacifier all on his own! He has now moved on to sucking on his bunny/blankie (when he's not swaddled)
He weighs about 16 pounds now and is about 26 inches long!
He's working on rolling over! He's rolled to his side a couple of times.
Logan's "talking" so much more now! He loves to babble, gurgle, and LAUGH all the time! :)
He can hold his head up by himself, turn it to the sides, and look up and down!
He LOVES bath time! He calms down right away, and waits for me to sing songs. :)
We've had a pretty rough January when it comes to his sleep. Not sure if he went through a growth spurt, but he was waking up every couple of hours for a few weeks. No fun! He's back to sleeping 6-7 hour stretches now. Thank GOD!
Logan loves putting his hands in his mouth, and sucks on his fingers when he's tired. When he's swaddled, he sucks on his bottom lip while he goes to sleep. <3
Still sleeping in his Rock and Play sleeper in our room. Going to attempt the transition to his crib after our trip to Austin in February.
Tries to hold his own bottle! So cute!
Grew out of his 0-3 month clothes, and is barely fitting his 3-6 month outfits. 6 month clothes fit him perfectly! He's also in size 2 diapers! Such a big man!!!!
Logan LOVES getting kisses from Mommy and Daddy! He laughs his butt off when we kiss his neck!
Modeling his new Gymboree outfit!
Sibling love!
Cheering for the Steelers at home while Daddy was at the game! :)
Check out those muscles! :)
Happy little baby bear!
Holding his bottle!
Napping with his bunny...before he gave up his pacifier.
