Weekend and Week in Review

So there's lots that I want to get posted on here from the last few weeks but I think I'll skip ahead to this past week and then work on the others later.

With Pamela back in Alberta :( we were on our own again. Remembering how to do things without an extra set of hands and how to fill our days without her to play with (a post about her visit will come...).

We spent most of the week just hanging out at home playing with Logan's new birthday toys (a post about this will come..). Mom came for a visit on Thursday when we took our weekly trip to the doctor for Jacob. He now weighs in at 7lbs 13.5oz, not a heavyweight by any means but a healthy little boy. Healthy enough that we get to go to the doctor biweekly now!

Anyways, here follows the week in pictures.

Jacob is now smiling quite a bit, I'm trying to catch the smiles on camera...

...unsuccessfully.

Logan concentrating hard on one of his new puzzles (and talking to Buba on his pretend phone)

Logan has many expressions these days and continues to be quite a ham for the camera as displayed below.






Friday is laundry day at our house. Logan likes to help me put the clothes in the washer and dryer and as pictured about, likes to dress himself with the clean clothes as well.


Using the cat house to get a better view.


Still trying to capture a good smile.

Scott's mom and dad came by on Saturday morning to drop off Logan's birthday gift and to visit as well.

Playing with his new train/car mat with grandma (and wearing his train conductor hat from Uncle Scott).


Letting Blue Bear in on the action.

Reading with Grandma.

We'd been trying to get to the pumpkin patch for quite some time so we braved the weather on Saturday to pick out our pumpkins. It was so cold, windy and rainy but Logan seemed to have fun. It appears though that we should have waited since the weather was SO nice today. I got a few pictures anyways.

Checking his height.

"I like this one mom!"

Trying to pull the pumpkins.

Picture of the boys...Jacob is there, under the blanket.

Showing off his pumpkin holding skills...always with 2 hands, never hold it just by the stem.

Always on a mission to splash in puddles.

Carefully bringing his pumpkin home.

Trying AGAIN to get the smiles...

Since it was nice out today, Scott and Logan headed outside to rake up the backyard.

Loving the leaves!

Throwing the leaves in the air.

Taking a break for a snack.

Helping daddy clean up the leaves.

Logan and the 3 cats seem to have a love/hate relationship. Logan LOVES the cats but is so loud everytime he sees them that he scares them away; his screams can clear the room of the cats in no time. When I came inside today they were all sleeping so peacefully.

Peanut and Cheeto

Logan soon followed and cleared them from the room. Hopefully they had already gotten enough sleep.

Logan loves playing in his bed and wanted Jacob in his bed today too. They were so cute together.

All cozy in bed.

Brothers (yes, Jacob is trying to find something to eat from Tigger.)

Phew, what a week. Lots of pictures and lots of memories!

Those pictures are really cute, especially the boys in bed! Glad to see Logan is still enjoying Tigger. Love the measuring at the pumpkin patch too.
