What?????

Last week we had doctor appointments and while I was there I needed to check and make sure that Logan was all up to date on his shots.  He kept asking if he had to get a shot, over and over.  I was telling him we are just going to check and make sure that he was up to date and then we would go from there.

Well, we went into the office and she informs us that he was good.  Happy, excitement, and glee from Logan, right, WRONG!!

Here the waiting room is full of anxious parents and crying, worrying children anticipating a shot.  And out of the office comes mine screaming and crying out that he WANTS a shot- WHAT????  Full of embarassment, I drag him and his siblings out of the office as a marine behind me calls out that it was so cool that my kid wanted a shot- wanting to know how I rasied such tough boys!

We get into the hallway and I bend down to puzzle out why Logan wanted a shot.  In between tears he informs me that he wanted a SUCKER!!  Bless his heart!  I let him know that a shot is not required for a sucker and when we got home, Logan, Dilon, and Jodie all got a sucker!!

Logan's Lost His First Tooth

This past week, Logan lost his first tooth (thanks Leah).  He was so excited and felt so BIG!!  We took a picture and he wanted Squeak to be in it too.  I guess Squeak did too, because he joined Logan in a big smile.


Right before bed, Logan lost his tooth, though I am really surprised it did not happen earlier in the day as much as he played with it:)  Anyway, he was really upset.  We had been looking for it when Dilon walked into the room and says, "Did you pray?" Logan instantly began a prayer that he would be able to find his tooth.  Right after that he did.  He quickly, then, said a prayer of thank you!!  I love the heart of my boys!

Tutu's

On our 10 year anniversary, Matt surprised me with some beautiful flowers.  Jodie was loving the pinks and purples and kept saying how beautiful they were!!!  And then, with an expression of pure delight she says, "and that one has a tutu." (referring to the rose)

So adorable...I will never look at a rose the same!

Logan's Birthday

Logan was born during the time that Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans and we have forever called him our little hurricane, so I guess it was kind of appropriate that he celebrated his 6th birthday as Irene was hitting the east coast!

Since we left N.C. and headed to G.A. we did some celebrating in both places.

We headed to Chucky Chesse's early on Saturday morning.  It was so much fun, which is a lot for me to say.  I normally do not like places like that, but we got there as they opened and there was no one there but us, Grandmama, and our friends who escaped the hurricane with us.





Then this last weekend we had his birthday cake and presents.



  
I can't believe our "booger bear" is 6 years old!  It has been such a joy to hang on to the ride that he has taken us on in these 6 years- we look forward to many more.  A good laugh is never far off- either from something said, done, or just a look from those happy eyes.  We love you!
