Long time coming...

It's been awhile, I know.  It's just that every time I was prepared to write Logan seemed to say, "hellooo, remember me, there's something yucky in my diaper", or "do you even realize how long it's been since I last ate?  I'm trying to grow here..."  I have a stolen moment, she rests quietly in her pack'n play.  She's trying to reach a milestone, sleeping through the night.  I am pleased to say that Lo has slept 7hrs straight last Monday, and 5 and a half hrs straight 2 other nights last week.  Almost there.  Uh oh, I hear a whimper.  She's giving me a two minute warning.  So...I have been searching for a child trailer so we can enjoy bike rides while I get rid of my last 20lbs.  I've narrowed it down but then wondered if she's still too small.  Will she start sliding to one side as we go cruising?  What I noticed is the product description writers all fail to mention the age requirements for their product.  Duh!  I think I'll visit a pro bike shop and ask questions.  I have all these things I want to do with Lo but then I realize she's only 2 months and her biggest interest right now is controlling her hand to hit the turtle on her bouncy seat, her first friend.  Ok, so I tell myself to chill, baby steps.  Just my thoughts...on being Logan's mom.

So Amazing...

It amazes me:
*how Logan startles when I'm holding her close and clear my throat
*the amount of rolls I have to get through when wiping her neck
*how she doesn't like anything on or near her head and is prepared 
to fight when a onesie, hat or headband comes close
*how she doesn't like me to touch her ears
*the softness of her thighs
*the amount of babbling she does
*how small her pinky fingernail is
*how far her pacifier rolls when she spits it out
*that her hands just reach the top of her head when she stretches
*how when she looks at me with a half smile and look
of satisfaction after eating,
I know just what she's thinking...
a few of my thoughts...on being Logan's mom
