Logan in our crazy snow we had this winter!
Ok, so I know I'm the world's worst blogger. I think I just lost my motivation after getting a bit behind. But with so much going on around here I just have to share.
Well, as the title says we have poop in the potty. Yep, real poo! No pee yet, but I'll take whatever. Logan gets special "potty treats" every time she sits on her potty. It's pretty good motivation for her. And she is VERY proud of herself and her poos. So hopefully we continue to make progress. My goal is to have her potty trained by this summer........why you ask? Well, did you check out our blog title description? Notice any changes? .....................Yep, it says "and counting". Come this summer we gonna be a family of four! We're pretty excited. With Logan we waited to be surprised. So this time we've decided to go the other way. In just a couple weeks we get to find out if it's a boy or a girl. Yay!
This pregnancy was WAY worse in the beginning. Far more sickness than I had with Logan. But now that I'm in the second trimester I'm definitely feeling better. The baby is starting to move around like crazy. I could feel the "butterfly" movements pretty early on. But now I can feel a solid mass of baby moving around, and pretty frequently. With the baby moving now and my belly showing, I'm definitely feeling more excited about being pregnant. And with the sickness passed, I feel like I can enjoy my pregnancy.
Unfortunately I have a few ailments that I still have to work through. Last year I hurt both my knees. I swear they wouldn't heal. The pain gets pretty bad at night while sleeping and I have quite a bit of difficulty getting up and down. It kinda went away for awhile so I thought I was past it. But once those pregnancy hormones kicked in it came back. Evidently I've got some tracking issues with my knee cap and some tendonitis. So I'm doing physical therapy. It is definitely helping which I'm sooo thankful for. I was getting concerned there that pregnancy weight and hormones we're going to send me over the edge.
Earl has been working like mad. He has been crazy busy and putting in long days. But the minute he walks in that door Logan makes sure he forgets all about it! She gets so excited when he comes home. She is all over him wanting him to wrestle and play with her in her "play kitchen". It's is too cute. These are definitely precious moments!
Logan also got herself a new cousin this winter. Cute baby Ivy! Since being around baby Ivy Logan is totally into babies. She carries her babies all over the house. She likes to tell you "shhh, nigh, nigh (night, night)" as she lays them down and covers them with blankets. She also pats and rocks them. It is hillarious. Babies, her play kitchen, balls, riding her "Coco" horse, jumping, wrestling, reading and going outside are her favorite things to do.

So I think I've got my motivation back and plan to keep everyone posted on the new "happenings" around the Eastman place.
