Happy New Year!

Good Morning 2008! I'm up early with Logan and he is content playing with some of his new toys, so I thought I would add the New Year's pictures.
I was supersilly and made Logan a goofy party hat...it was so cute!

Logan was such a happy baby last night...we had so much fun playing with him!

All smiles for the end of 2007 and start of '08!
What a great year its been...so many changes and so many blessings!
We wish the best for all of you in 2008! Happy New Year!

19 Weeks Old!

Some pictures from this week!



Logan tried an ice cube...brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

Naked time...no privates showing this time!

can you see my teeth????

Paprazzi

Okay, so basically I was the "mama-razzi" before, but John and I got a new camera for
Christmas from my parents. So, now its really bad.
And, John is on the bandwagon, too...its just too fun to shoot with an SLR...

here's a few of our faves from the first day of our new camera.

Bambino Grande

Logan's Mountain Boy sled is so cool! Its actually called the "Bambino Grande"...you got that right! Perfect for our grande bambino!
We enjoyed taking Logan out a few times over Christmas to enjoy his new toy.
The funny part is that Logan doesn't really know what's going on, so really, its purely for our own enjoyment of seeing Logan scoot around on the snow.
But oh well, we hope he grows to love it!

Daddy will no doubt teach Logan to love the snow as much as he does.
Look at those boys...precious!

CONGRATULATIONS!

Did someone say, "Auntie Ali?"...



That's right! Kyle and Ali are engaged! The exciting day was December 22 and Kyle did a great job with a beautiful ring and proposal!
Ali loves Logan so much...we are so lucky to have her as an official part of the family!
Congrats, you two!

Logan's First Christmas

Then it was off to Holbrooks for a beautifully white Christmas Eve and Christmas Day!
We all found ourselves so excited for Christmas this year, feeling that a little of the "magic" of Christmas is back with Logan here to celebrate with us!


Here we are after Christmas Eve service at Eagle Brook Church.


Logan and Mommy by the stockings on Christmas morning.
"Such fun wrapping to play with!", says Logan!

Logan's new "big boy" carseat from Papa and Nana! The box was shaped like a chair, so we had him sitting and standing on the present all week.

Pretty luxurious...its like a lazy boy in the back seat of the car. We're a little jealous, to be honest.


Auntie Amy and Uncle Kyle were great at helping and playing with Logan!


What a lucky little guy!

Logan even helped Papa make his famous pancakes...yummy yummy!

Thank goodness for Papa and Nana...they took the early morning shift a few times so we could sleep in....Merry Christmas to US!

Over the river and through the woods...

All set for our week of Christmas, we literally packed up and went

"Over the river and through the woods" to grandma's house (and grandpa's, and papa & nana's, too!).
First stop: the Eiselt house where Scott was home from North Carolina for an early Christmas!

Logan got one more chance to wear all his Christmas duds.

It was so fun to see Uncle Scott...and he was such a good napper with Logan!
Scott hadn't seen Logan since he was 1 week old...just a little bigger!

Logan enjoyed opening presents - for a couple minutes. The crinkly paper is the coolest part! Logan got an awesome sled from Grandma and Grandpa Eiselt, along with many other cool toys, etc from the family! Thanks, guys!

Here's Daddy teaching Logan about the doggies. Logan would stare at the dogs and flinch when they got too close. The dogs were pretty good by the end of the week...they played very nicely!
