little boy

its moments like these that make me wish Logan would stay little forever. Gosh, do I love that little boy.

pleasure pier

We spent Saturday at Pleasure in Pier in Galveston. Let me start by saying that it is such a fun place for everyone! I can't wait to go back, hopefully soon. For such a gorgeous Saturday, it was pretty quiet on the boardwalk, which meant there were no lines for the rides. Next time, I definitely want to spend the $30 and get a all day ride pass. There are even rides Logan would enjoy. We did ride the carousel, since he loved it the last time he rode one. Once again, he was ecstatic about it, and didn't want to get off. He also chased some bubbles around, danced to the live band, and tried to figure out how the roller coaster worked. Lets just say that he slept so good that night. 

The view from the pier was absolutely beautiful at sunset, and it was actually really peaceful watching the surfers out on the water. One of my favorite parts about the boardwalk, was the rocking chairs for people to sit in. Whoever thought of that is genius, in my opinion. We ended the night by going to my moms, and setting up her Christmas tree as a family. Logan enjoyed pulling ornaments out and trying to put them on the tree. He didn't quite understand how to do it, but he sure did try! I wish everyday could be like Saturday was.. If only.

good morning!

a few pictures, and a kiss to start your Saturday! 

Today, I spent the day shopping for Christmas presents. Naturally, I found baby clothes too cute to pass up, so I bought Logan and his best friend matching shirts and some socks for Christmas photos. I also got Logan some slippers (I'm so excited his feet are big enough finally!). We ended up doing some photos of the boys, and I can't wait to have the time to start working on them.

After photos, Logan and I ran around in the back yard chasing Xena. This smile on Logan's face when he runs around with her is priceless.

We decided to pull out the wagon and take the boys around the block to look at all the Christmas lights. I think they liked it, but who knows.. I know I enjoyed it. We finished the night with a movie and dinner. Love quiet nights at home with friends. 

a saturday full of Christmas, oh boy!

This past weekend was insanely busy.. As a matter of fact, it seems like these past few weeks have been very hectic. Guess that is a sign that its definitely time for the holidays. 

We spent Saturday in Galveston with my grandma, and spent the evening at the city Christmas parade. Logan got to see all the pretty floats, and danced around the drums. It was actually a lot of fun, and I'm relieved that he wasn't scared of everything. 

we went home and decided to put the Christmas tree up and watch Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer since I had never seen it. *Just a side note, Santa is not very nice in that movie. I figured Logan wouldn't make it to see the tree finished, but he sure did try. It was cute watching him help me push the big red bag the tree came in.. He pushed until we made from the dining room to the kitchen. He is so sweet!

While I was putting the tree up, which is hard work, Logan decided he wanted to see what the needles tasted like.. It was definitely fun to watch him play with the branches. I really do look forward to doing this every year.

We ended the weekend with a nice relaxing trip to the doggie park, and an evening at home, where I spent the majority of my time editing photos. I'm so hoping things start to slow down soon, I'm ready for some rest!

poor, sick logan

Last night, we spent a majority of it in the ER. I mentioned before that Logan was feeling pretty crummy, and it turns out the poor baby has two major ear infections. The doctor kept telling us that he hadn't seen ears as red as Logan's in a long time.. Way to make me feel worse doc. Luckily, we have a tough little boy.

It's not easy keeping a one year old occupied in an ER room, but eventually he ran out of energy and passed out with daddy. After 3-4 hours, a shot of antibiotics, a few prescriptions, and some insurance hiccups, we finally made it home. As of now, LJ is doing a bit better.. Here's to hoping these antibiotics kick these ear infections, and I get my happy-go-lucky baby back soon!

a visit from great grandma magyar

Over the weekend, Mikes grandma, uncle, and aunt came to visit, so naturally we stayed up the whole night friday cleaning to make sure the house looked good. It was nice seeing them all, especially Mikes aunt and uncle since they live further away, and we don't see them often. They also brought their dog, which Logan loved. He had a great time walking her around the house with her leash. 

The only thing that would've made their visit better, is if Logan hadn't been so fussy. Poor kid has been stuffed up, and has a killer cough. Actually, everyone in our household has been feeling pretty crummy the last few days. Must be something in the air.. 

Anyways, as November comes to an end, I am very much looking forward to everything December has to offer! My next goal? Figure out where to put our christmas tree.. Oh boy!
