Favorite Present?

This is a picture of one thing Uncle Keith and Aunt Cindy bought for Logan. We are doing his room in a White Sox theme now. I think Daddy and Graham may have been a little more excited than Logie!

Spring Break!

Yeah! We just confirmed our flight to Florida. We're still having Christmas Break and we're already thinking of Spring Break! The three of us will be spending spring break in Florida!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year


From our family to yours, we wish everyone a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! We love you all!

Tim, Lisa, and Logan


Logan's Cars Couch

Logan loves to watch Baby Einstein and he has definitely outgrown the boppy that he watched it on, so he now has his own couch! He absolutely loves it. Even if sometimes it does become an obstacle course!



Christmas Morning

We had wonderful morning on Christmas morning. It was just the three of us and we were able to have a leisurely morning. Logan was excited with everything he opened! We would open a Logie gift, and then a mommy or daddy gift. This gave him a little time to play in between. I am sure he didn't really understand it, but he sure did enjoy everything! In the late afternoon we went to Aunt Debbie's house for the Wilson Christmas. There was great food and fellowship!


Opening the Cars couch! Don't you love the White Sox Santa hat!
Logan loved his Baby Einstein caterpiller from Grandma and Grandpa Umlauf

Christmas Eve

We spent Chrismtas Eve with my side of the family. It was spread over two days though. On Saturday night we went to Mom and Dad's house to open presents and have dinner. Logie got tired right after dinner, so he only got to open one present with Daddy. We couldn't open stockings though because Santa hadn't been there!

Austin, Olivia, and Graham made everyone their own coffee mugs. Tim got his a little later because it fell out in the van!

Climbing

Logan's new activity is climbing. He will pull himself up and on to everything he possibly can!

Long Time No Write

Wow! It has been forever since I hve been on here! With Christmas vacation and no internet at home, I haven't had the chance to get online. Our past week has been filled with big events! Logan had several firsts....He got his first tooth on Christmas morning, and started pulling himself up the same day.

Dad and Tim are out trapping so I am going to try and post some Christmas pictures. It may take a while since mom and dad have the good old fashioned internet!

One of Those Days

Do you ever have those days where you feel like everything that can, does go wrong? Today is one of those days for me. Logan did not want to take a nap this morning, which is normally not a big deal; but then we decided to have my family's Christmas tonight. I finally get him to sleep and I have to wake him up to meet Tim at my mom and dad's house. He is happy for about a half hour and then starts to get tired again. I take him out of his car seat and the back of shirt and dress pants are soaked. He had gone pee and it came out of his diaper! I finally get him undressed and diaper off....and he starts to pee again! This time all over his face, in his hair, on the carpet, and on me! What a great afternoon this has been...

Baby's First Christmas

Great Grandma Wilson has a tradition of putting her great grandchildren's pictures in the newspaper for their first Christmas. Logan was no different! We now have a famous baby! Thank you Great Grandma Wilson!

9 Months

We can't believe Logan is already 9 months. I took him for picture last week. With him starting to get sick they didn't come out as good as I had hoped, but they're not bad. He also went to see Santa! He didn't cry, he just looked at him like who are you!

First Day Back

Having a four day weekend was wonderful! Even if it wasn't under the best of circumstances. Coming back to a mess that the sub left is crazy, papers, papers, papers are everywhere! I can't wait for Christmas Break now!

Sick Little Boy

We woke up Sunday morning with a very sick little boy. He ran a high fever all day with a bad cough. All he wanted to do was be snuggled. Mom and Dad definitely didn't mind! We felt so bad for the little guy. Daddy stayed home from work today because Logan had to go see a Dr. Hopefully daddy and Logie have a better day today!

No Posts

I will probably not be posting until Sunday or Monday. I am having some minor foot surgery tomorrow (but needed), and will be out of school. School is where I have the best internet for uploading pics. I will be back soon!

Sad Morning

This morning we had a first. I said goodbye to Logan and started to leave and he started to cry! It was so sad it almost made me cry. He has been so good up to this point, as long as I'm not around. I don't know how much of that my tears can withstand.

No Wonder

So I figured it out. This is why Logan is all of a sudden intrigued with our tree and before never went by it!



I guess that is what Grandparents are for?!

Milanowski Christmas

We had our Christmas with the Milanowski side (My mom's side) this past Sunday. This was the first time Logan actually opened a present and he was so excited! The bad part, now he is trying to open the ones that are under the tree.

The Whole Family

Christmas Program

Austin, Olivia, and Graham were in a Kids of the Kingdom Program at CBC. Olivia had a solo, Graham was an army man, and Austin picked a part because the name was Logan...even it only had one line! How cute is that! Austin is the boy in the white shirt.

Christmas Break?!!

My kids are driving me insane! You would have thought today was the last day of school before a vacation, and we still have 8 days left. I am ready to pull out what little hair I have left!!!!

My Little Prisoner

When Logan is in our living room we have gates up so he can't get into dog food, stairs, and the many other things he would love to get into! Last night Tim was in the living room with Logie and I was in the kitchen and my little prisoner was trying to get through the gate to come to me! It was o funny I couldn't stop laughing!

Being A Mom

I thought this was beautiful....


A NEWBORN'S CONVERSATION WITH GOD

A baby asked God,
"They tell me you are sending me to earth
tomorrow, but how am I going to live there being so small and
helpless?"


God said,
"Your angel will be waiting for you and will take care of you."

The child further inquired,
"But tell me, here in heaven I don't have to do anything but
sing and smile to be happy."


God said,
"your angel will sing for you and will also smile for you.
And you will feel your angel's love and be very happy."


Again the child asked,
"And how am I going to be able to understand when people talk
to me if I don't know the language?"

God said,
"Your angel will tell you the most beautiful and sweet words you
will ever hear, and with much patience and care, your angel will
teach you how to speak."


"And what am I going to do when I want to talk to you?"

God said,
"Your angel will place your hands together and will teach you how to pray."

"Who will protect me?"

God said,
"Your angel will defend you even if it means risking its life."

"But I will always be sad because I will not see you anymore."

God said,
"Your angel will always talk to you about Me and will teach you
the way to come back to Me, even though I will always be next to
you."


At that moment there was much peace in Heaven, but voices from
Earth could be heard and the child hurriedly asked, "God, if I am to
leave now, please tell me my angel's name."


God said,
"You will simply call her, "Mom."

My Boys


I just have to say that I love this picture. These are my boys.

Big Night Out

On Saturday, Tim and I had our big date night. It was PDK's Christmas party. Mom and Dad came over to our house and spent the night with Logan. PDK put us in the Fairfield hotel and chartered limos for us to go back and forth. We had cocktails, dinner, and dancing at the Patrician. It was wonderful to be just us for the night!



Thanksgiving

Here are some pics from Thanksgiving. The whole Wilson clan came to visit from Minnesota.

The Big Hunters

Sunday was a crazy day! Tim and Austin both brought in deer. Dad, Tim, and I were sitting down to watch the Bears game when Dad spotted some deer in the back pasture. Tim throws on his hat and grabs Dad's gun. He starts sneaking down the back hill, at some points even crawling as to not catch the doe's attention. He get close enough.....and he ends up with a doe and a button buck! Since my Uncle Stosh is not able to go out and go hunting, one of the deer will go to him.

Not long after finishing up with these deer, Dad gets another call. Austin got his first deer! One shot is all it took. So, off trecked Tim and Dad to help haul this deer out of the woods. Austin was more than a little proud, this was his first deer ever! No deer for 2 months, and 3 in one day! Good grief!

Family Pictures

We had our family pictures taken last week. Logan was such a ham that we were looking for the best pics of Tim and I, not Logan. He constantly was laughing! Here are just a few of the ones we took.

Finding New Ways

Logan is finding a new spot to get stuck everyday! This is a toy that he can play under and then sit on later on, but he wants to get on it now. He was getting very upset when he couldn't get out! I'm awful for taking pics when he is upset!

8 months....a little late

Well, I finally took Logan's 8 month pictures. Even if I am a little late this time. He was not as cooperative as normal, I guess the crawling may have something to do with it! I don't normally take this many pictures, but as you can see I never really got a good picture. I guess that's what happens as they grow! He finally gave up and crawled away!
