Hi-ho-hi-ho......

Off to Michigan we go...

We leave six a.m. on Saturday, and couldn't be any more excited,nervous,or full of anticipation if we tried.

Logan starts his new pre-school next week already, and Justin has orientation Wednesday through Friday, then starts class on Tuesday the 8th.

I'll be sure to take pics of both of their first days of school ;)

So smart, that one

While driving home from Logan's Birthday dinner with my family, Logan felt the need to tell me to "relax".
Is it a bad thing to take advice from an almost four-year old?

From baby to boy....

Logan
will be FOUR in just a few weeks :(
The time has flown by, I remember snuggling him in the rocking chair for hours as an infant, now I am lucky if I get a snuggle once a week. We used to clap and praise him for saying "mama", or "daddy", now we have moved unto encouraging name writing, alphabet singing and counting upwards of thirty.
Three years ago my little Logie couldn't walk, let alone run, dance, kick and jump like he does today. He has taken simple sentences and developed into full-on conversations. Quiet car rides are a thing of the past, and now our little chatterbox fills the air with questions and statements of a growing mind. The sweet kisses of slobber and zest, are now replaced with "I love you Mom" and a stil zealous, just cleaner kiss on the lips. And four years later, I wouldn't want it any other way.

Happy Birthday my sweets!!!

Michigan

the big move is only ONE month away


We are excited for the change, but wary of all that comes with it at the same time.
I am going to need to start updating the bloggity blog more often, and what better time to start than now.
(I say these words often it seems)
but...
this time I mean it!
So, for all inquiring minds, we are moving at the end of August, Logan has a new school all ready for him, and the apartment search is going, rent is comparable (if not more affordable) to here, so I'm not overly stressed. Maybe I should be.....on that note, I will leave you with a few pictures of Logan--who else? And hope you have a veery splendid day!!

= the number of Nemo band-aids Logan is wearing at any given time

I will get it.

A header that is.
I have created more than 10 headers on various programs, and NONE of them upload no matter how hard I try.
But I will get it.
I swear.

Updated post with pictures to come soon!

The Biggest Day Since The Wedding......

Is Sunday, and we couldn't be more excited to continue on our journey. Thanks to everyone who has supported us, primarily Justin of course, in this seemingly endless adventure!

I am so VERY proud of Justin, and can't wait to see what the future holds for us.

Congratulations Sweets! You have EARNED it!

(I'm sure this is how you feel right about now )

He is obviously white

A Beautiful Spring Day =

The mini-golf picture and the one of him in the stroller are from the Dells, they snuck their way in there :P

Puzzle Love

I have to get on the wagon with updating more than once a month ;)

Recently, Logan has taken up the hobby of puzzles

He LOVES them, he will finish a 25 piece one in 5 minutes! Which means we have an abundance of puzzles overflowing our game closet and subsequently random pieces such as lightning mcqueens eye, or texas and missouri all over the place :)

I love that he has an interest in them, but his cleaning up skills need some tweaking ;)

I need to upload my pictures of him working on them, maybe next months post :)

So here is a random picture :)

Justin, Jordan and Jake posing for a picture for Jeff and Jill's 25th Anniversary, this wasn't the one that was blown up, but its my favorite :)

Also labeled by the boys as the "Beatles" picture, they felt a bit like the backstreet boys during our shoot. Three grown-up (almost) boys, and 84 pictures, do you know how many turned out well enough to be blown up as a gift? FOUR!

**Michigan**

Logan used about half my memory card taking pictures of his dvd player ;)

We took a trip to Michigan earlier this month, Logan loved the hotel swimming pool,it was nice because we were the only ones using it!

The trip was nice, and productive which is always a good thing :)

Hopefully I can get a few pictures up from the Dells soon, we had a blast!

Museum

Saturday we took Logan to the Museum of Science and industry in Chicago :)

He loved the airplanes, and the trains but that was expected. We had a great time and can't wait to go back this summer to the Shedd Aquarium, Navy Pier and the Field Museum. After we left the museum, we drove up Lakeshore Drive and through the city, it was really neat to see the different types of neighborhoods. Much more diverse than Milwaukee ;) We can't wait to go Back!
