Faces of Logan

So I was having some fun with Logan and went a little camera happy.......oh well, there are several pics, but they sure are cute. Enjoy!

Last week I started feeling a little under the weather. Nothing to go to the doctor about, but just not well. Of course, Logan started showing signs of the same thing. Her temp never broke 100, but she just wasn't real happy. Over the weekend she was awake pretty much all day Sat. and most the day Sun. Sat. was the worst day for me and Earl was gone ALL day. So we had a sick baby and a sick mom with no help. Needless to say I wasn't happy when Earl got home after 7pm, after leaving at 6:30am. But he was gone for a good cause, so I had to think " there's always tomorrow". Of course tomorrow came and Logan still wasn't happy, plus we had obligations to do stuff. We went to a picnic with our congregation......I'm pretty sure I suffer from social anxiety. Not only am I shy in large groups, but add a cranky baby and women who want to help (when you're not ready to pass your 6 week old around), kinda a bad recipe. Hope no one thinks I'm unfriendly:( Gotta laugh at it though. I do however have to figure out how to be less reserved in groups............

Yesterday Logan was feeling better but still needed to catch up on her sleep. So she slept all day! It was kinda nice as I managed to get alot of stuff done. We went and met Earl at work. Then we headed to the YMCA to get a family membership. I'm a big Y fan. When we lived in Portland I was a Site Director for the Y. That last summer there was a ton of fun. I worked with some great staff and great kids. Anyways, I really support how the Y provides for the community. The gym facilities are geared toward families. This one has family and lap pools, rock climbing, cardio, weights, exercise classes, gym, game room, pool, computers and free daycare for members for ages 6weeks to 6 years. All for a reasonable price (less than regular gyms). Plus your membership helps allow programs for families with less money. So I'm pretty excited that we joined. I'm really excited about getting back in shape. I've been walking and have an eliptical at home. But I LOVE going to the gym. I told Earl he'll have to go with me the first time that I drop Logan off as I'll NEED the Moral Support!! Earl is excited that we joined too as he's looking forward to the swimming. He is training for an upcoming triathalon. I did one two summers ago, so I'll probably train for another next summer too.

We'll that's all for now. Gotta get some stuff done around here:)

Our House

Our House

Ever wonder where we live? With so much distance between everyone, I thought it would be fun to post some pics of "our house". We've done alot of work to the house and have plenty left. Most recent project was removing paneling and sheetrocking the basement. We also have a remodel going on the basement bathroom. Plus we are trying to do some landscaping......I know, the pics tell all!

STP

Well Earl did the STP this month with bittner and some other Seattle friends. It's a 200 mile bike race from Seattle to Portland. They rode 140 miles day one and the remainder day two. If they do it again next year I think they will go for all 200 miles in one day. Earl said it was a blast, making me jealous. Who knows, maybe I'll train to do it again next year....... any takers on riding with me? :)

At Nana's House

Tomorrow is the 6 week marker since we met Logan. We've made a couple trips out of town and she's proven to be a real trooper on the road. Thank goodness:)

Logan is really starting to grow. She was 7.15 at birth and 9.1 at her two week appointment. I'm sure she's over the 10lb. marker. Her smiles have started and she'll be cooing any day. Now, if we can just work on that sleep thing!
