All Smiles

These two sure know how to push each other's buttons (aaaggh, the BICKERING!)  But then there are those times, rare as they may be these days, when they are best buddies.

Logan- Age 2

Terrible twos? I can't really say that the problem has claimed Logan as a victim.  He has his fair share of crying and whining and maybe the occasional temper tantrum, but that kid just warms my heart with his sweetness every single day.

If I had to describe Logan at this moment in time, I would first think of his smileyness.  His smile lights up his face and lights up a room.   His eyes get lost behind his big round cheeks and all you see is a big grin.

He is a cuddly kid.  The kid I nicknamed as a baby "He-who-will-not-be-put-down" would still much prefer to be held than be put down. He snuggles in my lap to read books and still wants me to carry him when I pick him up from daycare. With that said, he is starting to explore his independence.  He likes to "do it by myself" and he likes to walk to the car but NOT hold my hand. If he doesn't get what he wants, he will scowl, point his finger, and say, "I'm MAD at you, Mommy!"

Logan's Likes:

2. babies, especially his cousin Isla
3. animals, especially farm animals
4. singing and dancing
5. Scooby Doo
6. choo-choo trains
