7 weeks and 7 hours!!!

Logan slept 7 hours IN A ROW last night!!! I'm still wondering how that could have happened and am still wondering if I could have possibly gotten up with him and just don't remember, but I honestly don't think so! He's been pretty good at sleeping at night and has been inching towards the 4 hour mark before waking up, but all of the sudden...7 hours!?! I attribute part (or pretty much all) of this success to our new favorite item:


One week ago, he hated his swing. Then my mom comes, puts him in his swing, and now it's his new best friend (and ours!). We'll one day wean him of it, but for now we're just enjoying our sleep. :)

One Month

Ok. So we've been seriously slacking on keeping this thing up to date (our blog that is)....but quite frankly, I can't even find time to shower or fix something to eat, much less think of things to post. I keep telling people that the old Leah is out, and the new "no-showering, spit up on my shoulder" Leah is in. It's funny how such important tasks have now been replaced with new important tasks such as consoling our new baby. Don't worry... I'll one day shower and eat a meal that actually takes preparation once again... I hope :) Becoming parents has been the most incredible and rewarding experience we've ever had, but by far the hardest thing I've ever done, too! Mr. Logan likes to make each day totally unlike the day before it and make it totally unpredictable for mom and dad. We understand his concern though. He's been through a lot in the past month. Yesterday he had an awesome day. He was happy and content and took good naps. Today, however, he was super cranky and I ended up having to drive to the nearest fast food joint to actually get some lunch, since there was no way he was going to let me fix something at home. I ended up eating the food in the parking lot...in silence, since he fell asleep on the way there. I felt like some closet fast food junkie as I sat there. He is cutting us some slack in the nighttime hours though...he's been an awesome sleeper at night for about a week now... just waking up every 3 hours to eat, and then falls right back to sleep.


Anyway, here are some new pics to show how he's growing. I think he's looking more like Randy each day.


Looks like he had a rough night... like the hair?


Feel priviledged. This may be the only picture I show of myself in my non-showered state.


Don't you just love this pose?


Logan and his daddy. Randy, is he making fun of you with that smile?
