First pair of Big Boy jammies!

5 months old

I know this is really late but on October 14th, Logan turned 5 months old!! He is growing and changing every single day. This past month he changed and learned so much. He is becoming such a BIG boy!!




Here is what Logan is up to at 5 1/2 months:

• wears size 3 diapers
• wears 6-9 month clothes, and some 9 month jammies
• had his first cold followed by his first ear infection (Oct. 4) Sick babies are NO fun :(
  
• absolutely loves his jumperoo! He can actually jump in it now and just squeals with delight when you put him in it

First time meet great grandma and grandpa Puckett

• can reach for toys and grab them really well now
• loves to sit or stand on our laps
  
• smiles all day long
• likes to do this HIGH pitched scream....surprised his throat doesn't hurt at the end of the day
• jibbers and jabbers all day too, especially when he first gets up or when you are putting him in his car seat
• really likes the cat. He likes to scream and talk to her too :)
• loves oatmeal and bananas!! Have not tried any other fruits yet but think we will try apples next

• Still loves taking a bath. It is his and daddy's fun time together. All they both do is laugh the whole time....very cute!
• laughs at everything these days. You can just make a funny face and he will laugh. His laugh is the cutest sound ever!
• now sleeps in his crib and not in his swing (Oct. 22)
• rolled over from his back to his belly for the first time (Oct. 23)
• no longer sleeps through the night ever since he was sick. He is getting better, but still wakes up a few times during the night. It was like having a newborn all over again for a few weeks.....very rough on mommy and baby!

• eats less formula now that he eats oatmeal and bananas at lunch or dinner sometimes
• weighs 16lbs 10oz as of Oct. 14th....growing so fast!
• can now sit for small amount of time on his own. Does really good if you put a boppy pillow around him to hold him up :)
• He doesn't really like his bouncy seat anymore. He is always arching his back and trying to wiggle out of it. I think he just wants to be able to move on his own so bad!

Frolfing with Dad

I know there is lots more that I am forgetting, but this is all I can think of right now.
I just cannot wait to see what the next month has to bring. He is just the sweetest boy ever!! I am so excited to wake up to him everyday. We just cannot imagine life without him! He means the world to us!

Mom and Dad love you Logan :)

Shots are no fun!

On Friday Logan had his 4 month check up at the doctors. Everything went well and he is a healthy baby boy. Bryan was even able to come with us this time which was nice. 4 months equals more vaccinations. Logan does great with the oral one. Sucks it down like nothing. The 2 shots were not as easy. The poor guy is just laying on the table all happy and babbling when WHAM he is stuck in one leg. Instant tears and no noise cries and then WHAM stuck again. He just looks at me like "Mom what did you let them do to me?" Poor guy! Good thing is that he only cries for a minute and is okay once I pick him up. Glad we don't have to do that again for another 2 months :)



Here are his 4 month stats:

Weighs 15lbs 10 ounces (90th percentile)
Height is 26 inches (75th percentile)
Head is 43.5 cm (75th percentile)

He grew 3 inches and gained 4 pounds since his last appointment. He is growing nicely the doctors say. Makes mom very happy!

We also got the go ahead to start Logan on rice cereal. We tried it the other night and today. He is not a fan yet. He just spits it back out after pushing it around in his mouth. I guess we will just keep trying until he gets the hang of it. So cute to see him eating off of a spoon :)

This was my rocking chair as a little girl.....and now it's Logan's. So cute!!

4 months old

Logan is now 4 months old!! I just cannot believe how fast he is growing up. This past month he has changed so much. He no longer acts like a wee newborn, but more like a big boy. His little personality is starting to show. He is just the sweetest boy. I am so blessed that I get to spend my days with him. He really is my best friend!!



Here is this past months stats:

• He wears size 2 diapers
• Wears size 3-6 months clothes as well as some 6 month clothes as well

• He is eating 32-35 oz a day ( one 9oz bottle in the morning and four 6 oz bottles the rest of the day)

• He loves to play on his play mat at night with Daddy. He will play there for 30 minutes easily

• He is starting to love his bumbo seat. He loves to sit in it and play with toys on the tray.

• He has started reaching for toys you hold in front of him
• Loves to chew on his thumb and index finger (until he gags himself)

• Still sleeps through the night. Goes to bed around 9pm and wakes up around 8am
• He tried out his Jumperoo for the first time. He is just learning how to make himself move. Most of the time we help him jump a little :)
  

• He loves to sit on your lap and just watch what is going on around him
• He laughs all the time now.....best sound EVER!!!
• His favorite toys these days are a little green ball and of course Sophie the giraffe

• He tried rice cereal the other day....not a fan!! Guess we will just keep trying :)
• He still LOVES bath time. He new thing is chewing on the wash cloth...very cute!
  

• He is starting to go BALD...his hair is falling out in clumps. He totally rocks a comb over these days :)
• He weighed 14lbs 2oz a couple weeks ago when we had to take him into the doctors for a yeast rash

He has his 4 month well visit next Friday so we will see how much he has grown then. 4 months also means more shots!! I hope this time around will be better than last time :)


Logan.....Mom and Dad love you so much. We did not know what we were missing until we met you!!

3 months.....

Guess who is 3 months old???


Yep on August 14th, Logan turned 3 months old and I just cannot believe it. This past month has gone by the fastest yet. There have been lots of changes in him too. We are starting to really see his little personality these days. He loves interacting with B and I and be in the same room with us experiencing whatever we are doing. I just love him at this age. He isn't my wee newborn anymore....he is an infant now :) I cannot wait to see all the changes this coming month bring.

Napping with Momma

Here is what Logan is up to at 3 months:

* He is still in size 1 diapers....will be in size 2 once we finish this last box of size 1's
*He can still fit in 0-3 months clothes and some 3-6 months things as well (it really depends on the brand)
*He now weighs 12lbs 13 oz (50th percentile) as of last week at the docs


*He is still sleeping through the night. He usually falls asleep around 9-9:30pm and sleeps until 8-8:30 am (mom is still happy about this!!)
*He is now exclusively formula fed.....no more breast milk :(
* He eats 25-30 oz a day



* He smiles ALL the time now....very cute especially when he sticks his tongue out while smiling too


*He still LOVES his bouncy seat....he would bounce in that thing all day if I let him :)
*He is liking tummy time more and more these days. I figured out if I lay him on the the floor propped up on his boppy pillow he does much better. He can now hold his head up for longer periods and has pretty good control


*When he wakes up in the morning he is such a HAPPY guy. He smiles and coos.....best part of my day, waking up to his smiling face :)
* He is starting to really drool these days....we call him Bubbles because he spits and makes so many bubbles of drool




* He is constantly sucking on his fist (only his right one)
* He loves to lay on his play mat....he will lay there for a good 30 minutes as long as Dad lays with him and plays:)



Logan had many firsts again this month:


*He laughed for the 1st time at 12 weeks (best sound ever)
*He stuck his feet in the pool for the 1st time the other day....didn't like it at first but soon got used to it and loved kicking his little feet in the water


* He also rolled over again tummy to back
*He found his feet the other day for the first time. He loves to stare at them....wondering "What are these things?"

Staring at his feet :)

* He learned how to make the "blowing raspberries"noise {the noise you make when blowing on his belly or vroom vroom noise if you are Ty bear and Porter :)} I often wake up to him making this noise....very cute!

Tongue is always out

Mom and Dad love you Logan Matthew!!
