The people at the party
















I have to say that my kids are some of the luckiest kids in the world.  We have oodles of supportive family surrounding us.  We are very blessed.  Thank you to every one who made Logan a part of your busy lives!  I know you all have "stuff" to do, but it means the world to me and the kids when you make the family a priority!  We love you all!

The party













Lets be honest, parties are more for me than the kids.  I LOVE spending hours making silly things that no one is going to notice.  There's just something about putting a party together that makes my heart go pitter pat pat.  Here are all the "details" from the big day.  My favorite thing about this party?  The checkered flag duck tape I found.  (Yes, it is Duck tape, I did not spell it wrong).  Some close 2nds are the photo #2 (thank you pinterest for the idea), and re-using the table runner from Mara's tea party.  Who knew a tea party and a racing party could have similar details?
More on the #2, I've decided that's going to be our birthday tradition.  Every year we'll add pictures and take away a few to create their new year number.  I'm pretty excited about it.

How can you not love this little man?






















How he is already 2 I do not understand.  It has flown by.  I miss it already..  I just want both my babies to stay this way forever.
As a 2 year old, Logan is smart.  The kid chats up a storm.  He can count to 10 and knows his alphabet to P.  The best part?  I haven't tried to teach him any of it.  At the 2 year well check one of the questions is "can he/she put together 2 words to make a sentence?"  Well, he uses as many as it takes.  Even if that's 47.  No joke.  He's a smarty pants.
He absolutely adores his sister, but that hasn't changed since the beginning of his life.  He is my little "snuggle bug" still.  He loves to cuddle with mommy and give me lots of kisses and hugs.
He still naps 2-3 hours a day-insert angels singing here-.
Depending on who you are talking to he either looks just like my dad and brothers, or is the spitting image of Sean as a child.  I believe both.
He is mildly obsessed with choo choos, and may or may not be really bad at sharing them...even if they are not even his to begin with!
He cries every.single.time. we drop Roo off at preschool.  But it's nothing a little Mater can't fix.
His favorite treat are suckers.
His favorite fruit are strawberries.
His favorite meal is noodles (it doesn't matter what the sauce is). if it's paired with a noodle, he'll eat it.
The kid can throw a tantrum unlike any other I've yet experienced first hand.  He beats Mara by far.  Luckily they don't happen often.
What more can I say?  This kid is pretty darn amazing.  Every moment I spend with him I feel SO blessed that Heavenly Father made sure that he came to our family.  I love you Mr!

This is all I have time to do right now, but I thought I better post at least one picture of Logan on his big day!  Can't believe he's 2!
