Not For Sale!

After having my yard sale, I had some of the price tags left over. Logan found one, who knows where and figured out how to pull them off! Tim and I look over and we now have a little boy for sale, only 25cents! He though he was so funny that he left them on for a while!

2 Blankies

So, I buy Logan a second blanket. 1 for the crib and one to drag around because it was just getting gross and I was washing it every day....here is what happened!



2 blankies are dragged around now! He will stand at his crib saying "blank" and try and pull it through! (Blank is his word for blankie)

Yeah! New Carpet!

Last weekend was crazy! I finally was able to have my new carpet installed in Logan's room and the hallway/stairs. Logan's room looks awesome! We did a white sox theme (imagine that). The top half of the wall is white and the bottom is black with a white sox border in the middle. The carpet we just had put in is a dark gray. It looks so cool. Our hallway carpet was disgusting, Logan keep going down it and rubbing his hands and feet on it!




Logan's new laugh looks devilish! He scrunches up his nose and his eyes go all crazy and this is what he ends up looking like! It is an awful little face that only a mom could love. (The first pic)

Sorry!

Sorry it has been a while since my last post. I know it drives me nuts when people aren't posting. Things have been a little crazy around here. I'll try and fill you in the best I can.

I am getting ready to start school a week from Tuesday. It is my first time in 4th grade so I am frantically getting ready my room and plans for the first week of school. This is the easy part.

My sister Cindy went back to her docs on Monday/Tuesday and they found a new spot on her brain. At this point they are unsure if it is a new tumor, or scar tissue growing. We would prefer the scar tissue. She is going to have to have full on brain surgery to find out, not the laser kind like she has been able to do since hte first initial surgery. Her, Keith, and the trips left for Branson yesterday to do one last vacation before school starts up again. Cindy ended up having another seizure this morning at the hotel. My mom almost flew down to help with the trips, but she came out of it before going to the hospital. Keith called Cleveland (her docs) and they said she needs to go back on the full amount of seizure medicine. They can stay down there, but I don't know how long they will last. Please pray for several things: 1. Cindy, she obviously is going through more than anyone can imagine and trying to fight for her life. 2. Keith (my brother) he has been through more in his lifetime than any one person should ever have to deal with. The thought of losing his wife of 17 years is more than he can handle, not to mention they have 3- 9 year old children. 3. Austin, Olivia, and Graham: they are out of the loop. They know a little of what is going on, but not anywhere near to the full extent. They are 9 years old, and I am 25 years old and having a hard time understanding this, and it is my sister not my mother. 4. For the family. We are on the outskirts, with nothing we can do other than pray. This is so hard because all I want to do is reach out and make everything better. Maybe this is the childish side coming out in me, but I can't help it. Cindy is 44 years old and has 3 kids she needs to watch grow up and my brother to take care of into his old age.

I guess I am using this as my venting post. If you could please keep all of this in your prayers, we would greatly appreciate it. Prayer has gotten our family this far and at this point, God is what we are clinging to.

Out Like A Light

Last night Logan was sound asleep! He never falls asleep on his back, so we know he was out! Especially if he sleeps through the flash!

Swimming

We are trying to make the best of what little time we have left of this summer! Logan, mom, and I went to Keith and Cindy's to go swimming on Tuesday. It wasn't as hot as it had been, and the pool felt great! Logan spent more time playing around the pool. He would get in and out!

Logie had so much fun playing with the bucket and a cup. I know what to get him for Christmas!

Isn't this just the most adorable towel!

Tim's Baptism

On Sunday, Tim was baptized and we had a thank you / celebration party for everyone who helped us move! (Thank you again....we couldn't have done it without you!) It was a wonderful day for our whole family.

This is the group getting out of the water. There were 4 people baptized. The guy to the right of Tim is Pastor Tim. Mom and Dad have the rest of the pics on their camera.

Logan wanted to play in the water....I wouldn't let him in the lake!

Poor Keith, as soon as Tim finished give his short speech, someone came and got Keith out of the cafeteria. Only to find out, his van had exploded! He had an electrical fire under the hood. Needless to say, they were very lucky to not be in it!
