Comming home and Logan turns 2!

WOW!! All I can say is it was a HUGE blessing to have my mom with us! Thursday the 5th the kids came and visited in the morning. They were doing well, except Em was not feeling well. Mostly I thought she was just adjusting to having a new baby brother and needed a nap. So after they went home for lunch and a nap. We came home from the hospital just before the kids started waking up. Well within an hour of us getting home from the hospital, Em had thrown up and both her and Kaitlyn were obviously sick! So we got a doctor appointment and Ryan ran them there. Both had strep throat! Em's got the shot and Kaitlyn got an antibiotic. It was a CRAZY afternoon! Between the 3 adults in the house, we were barely able to get everything taken care of! I'm sooooo glad my mom was here to help us! Luckily by Friday evening the kids were feeling better. We still didn't let them out though.

Saturday the kids had a birthday party!! I went with my mom to show her were the house was so we could drop them off. Well Em's didn't want to go. I think she was sad to leave mommy. So Grammy and Emmy dropped me off at home and went back. She did much better and all 3 kids had a blast! While they were at the party Ryan and I took Evan back to the hospital. He had to get his billi levels rechecked and weigh him. We took him in and his levels were high and his weight had dropped from 8 10 at birth down to 7 12. So they said we had to bring him back in Sunday morning to see if his billi levels had gone down. I was pretty much a wreck over it. Nursing my other children had always gone really well and right from the start things were not going well with Evan. So Sunday morning we took Evan back in. His billi was dropping but still high so he needed more sunlight and extra feedings. He did manage to escape the lights though.

Sunday August 8th (5 days after Evan was born) Logan turned 2!!! My little baby is no longer a baby :( He's officially a toddler now. Sunday morning he got to open presents from Grammy!










And Sunday evening I invited a couple families over to celebrate. We had cake and the guests had about an hour warning and they still came! Last year when Logan turned 1 we had a huge party but I forgot to take any pictures!! So I got lots of pictures of him this time!

Blowing out the candles. I love LOVE love his expressive face! Too cute!





Eating that yummy cake!





Happy 2nd birthday my precious Logan!! I love you!

He is soo cute!! So that little Gorilla guy.... I love it and so does Cooper because all of his friends that come over are just terrified of it! ha ha (so bad I know) we play nice but it's so fun to see them so scared! ha ha! Probably because it took a LONG time for Cooper to warm up to it too!! Logan looks pretty tough with it!! :)
