Getting there...

Last week went well. My mom came on Tuesday and Thursday to help out and we survived the other days on our own when Scott went back to work. Logan is doing really well with Jacob around. Most of the day, he is fine with the exception of when I am feeding Jacob. This process can take anywhere from 20 minutes to an hour and requires Logan to entertain himself during this time. I usually feed Jacob in the rec room so Logan can watch TV but he still gets antsy waiting. Near the end of most feeds, he says "Mommy, baby all done." It's pretty cute.

Jacob is doing well...at his last doctor's appointment on Thursday his weight was up to 6lbs 4oz and he had grown 1cm in a week. It's not GREAT weight gain but it is a gain which is much better than a loss. The doctor is ok with where he is at as long as he keeps gaining. So I feed him whenever he wants and make sure that he gets as much as possible. Other than that, he's a good little sleeper and is pretty happy when he's awake.

Since I'm still a week behind in pictures, I'll just post them all together below.

Logan loves helping Scott put the garbage and recycling out. He also loves watching the trucks come and pick everything up. Thursday night (when the garbage goes out to the curb) and Fridays (when it gets picked up) are the highlight of his week.

Putting out all the recycling.

Jacob in his crib - he seems so little in there!

One of Logan's favourites right now - having his picture taken.

Happily sharing his daycare scrapbook with Riann. They both look so happy here.

I thought Logan looked cute in this outfit that Scott put him...backwards hat and all.

Another trip to the park - this time, Victoria Park.

The water is still turned on at Victoria Park, so we couldn't leave without Logan getting all wet.

Pushing the button.

Getting close to the fountain.

Jacob looking up at daddy.

Yesterday we headed over to Colin and Mindy's for a visit with them, Julie and Sarah and Michael. Sarah and Michael manage to get to this area about once a year so we try to all get together for a visit to get caught up. As our families grow, the gathering gets larger all the time but it's a lot of fun. We did take a picture of the whole group, but on someone else's camera, I'll post a copy once I get one. For now, I just have a few pictures of Logan playing with the girls. There aren't any pictures of Jacob or the twins because all of them pretty much just slept and ate through the visit!

Three happy kids.

Bella looks a bit concerned here.

With their presents from Sarah.

One tired boy on the way home.

Ok so I should be caught up now. This afternoon we're heading to my aunt and uncle's place for dinner then we start another week of figuring things out tomorrow! Hopefully blogging will fit into the new schedule!

Woohoo, we made it into your blog :) Wish we could see you more than once a year...when the boys get bigger you should definitely come hang out with us sometime, we live close to the ocean and the beaches are great in the summer time. Glad Logan is enjoying his toy! You have 2 adorable boys!
