Weekend Ramblings

Sunday night is here already, back to work and daycare tomorrow.

We were hoping to hit up the Santa Claus Parade in Kitchener this weekend but unfortunately, it was raining on Saturday morning so we decided not to go. Hopefully the weather will be better in a couple weeks so that Logan and I can go to the parade in Norwich.

Instead, we went to the mall in Cambridge on Saturday afternoon. We mostly just window shopped but did manage to grab a couple stocking stuffers for Logan and a great deal on a picture frame. It's one of those ones that stands on the floor and holds 5 pictures...I've wanted one for a while and the price of this one was too good to pass up. Now I just need to get some pictures to put in it.

After dinner, I took the picture frame out of the box and Scott and I spent a long time pulling Logan around the living room on the flattened box. Who knew it would provide so much fun!

Going for a ride

Whee! This is fun!

Our first snowfall came on Saturday night, we didn't get too much but it was certainly enough to cover everything in white. It's the heavy wet kind so it looks really pretty hanging on all the tree limbs.

I took this picture before we went to bed on Saturday night

Today we went to church and then spent the afternoon hanging out at home. Logan was a bit "off" today...we're not sure why. We see the beginnings of a couple teeth on the top as well as an increase in drool, so maybe that was bothering him. He had a good nap this afternoon though which is good.

Logan is very interested in the fireplace...here's him and Scott sitting in front of it warming their hands. I thought it was a cute pic of the two of them.

In other Logan news, we seem to have dropped his last bottle! He's been down to just one bottle (right before bed) for well over a month now and I've known that he doesn't need it that it's just a habit. So last night we tried bedtime without the bottle. He put up a bit of a fight but he did fall asleep without too much complaining. Tonight we did our "normal" bedtime routine (pjs, book, singing) without the bottle and it went much better and he was out in no time. Since I had never intended to have Logan on a bottle, it was important to me to not have him on it for too long past 1 year. At the same time, it really feels like he's growing up so fast now and dropping that last bottle is certainly bittersweet.

Tomorrow is Logan's 13 month "birthday"! Crazy, eh? Now that Logan has been around for a whole year, I keep thinking back to "last year at this time" and remember how different life is now. No longer are we celebrating lots of firsts...but many seconds!

13 months, tomorrow.
