1. (May) - Todd asked Logan what he wants to name his brother. Logan happens to be looking at two books - one with a cat on the cover and one open to a page with Elmo playing at the playground. So Logan responds, "Meow Slide." And, yep, this has become our nickname for the baby until he has been properly named.
2. (May) - We are at my sister's church. This is only Logan's second time ever going to church. (I know, we need to go more!) We start singing, and Logan puts his fingers in his ears!
3. (May) - We're at the mall, and Logan points to an older man standing near us. He says, "Guy!" Todd tells him, "OLD guy," so Logan yells "OLD GUY" and points at the man. Such manners!
4. (May) - We got home late from the mall, and it wasn't bath night, so when I was putting Logan into his pajamas, I gave him a "white trash" bath using a baby wipe. Logan repeats the phrase "white trash" about a million times for the rest of the night. Todd has it on video!
5. (June) - Logan starts walking from the family room to the kitchen, telling me that he is going to "drink coffee."
6. (June) - Sophie lays down on the floor next to where Logan and I are playing. He offers her his "love love."
7. (June) - Logan is climbing on the chair in our family room while I'm making dinner in the kitchen. I see his little head poke up over the back of the chair, he looks at me and says, "Careful!"
8. (June) - Logan is in the family room and I am in the kitchen. I'm washing dishes, and I hear Logan sneeze twice. I'm only half paying attention, so when I don't say anything, he says, "Bless you!"
9. (June) - Todd and I are laying in bed, telling Logan about the zoo because I had planned our first trip of the summer for this particular day. Todd is naming all of the various animals that Logan could possible see at the zoo. For each animal, Logan asks "Touch?" and Todd says "Touch what?" Then Logan attempts to repeat the name of each animal, saying "Touch [animal]?" When we tell him no for each animal, he then asks "See [animal]?" for every single one. This goes on for about 15 minutes, and I swear we covered about 50 different animals!
10. (June) - We are at the zoo looking out over the African savanna, and I'm pointing out the zebras and the giraffe, knowing that Logan recognizes these animals from his bedroom. I ask, "What else do you see?" and he points and says, "BUFFALO!" I think my mouth dropped open in disbelief. I had no idea he knew this word, though I found out later that he and his Papa see them frequently while watching Animal Planet.
11. (June) - Logan is getting ready for a bath. We are in the bathroom, and I take his diaper off and run to his room quickly to throw it in the diaper pail. When I come back, Logan is standing, facing the toilet holding his "boy parts" and trying to climb up the side of the toilet. I ask him what he's doing, and he says "Pee potty!" Impressive - I guess we'll start potty training earlier than I had planned.
12. (June) - I'm sweeping the kitchen. Logan looks at me and says, "Good job!"
13. (June) - Todd and Logan are wrestling on the floor. Logan loves it and is giggling hysterically. Todd puts him in some kind of hold on the floor, and Logan yells, "Tap out!"
14. (June) - Logan is coughing, which he finds funny for some reason. He continues to "fake" cough after he's done "real" coughing, then looks at me, smiles, and says "Faking!" Such a vocabulary!
15. (June) - Logan and I are eating lunch. He asks to "Touch Mama," which I let him do, then I ask to "Touch Logan," which I do too. This goes back and forth a few times, and then Logan looks at me and says, "Hold hands," so we hold hands for a few minutes while we eat. Precious! This kid will make a great husband someday.
16. (June) - I have a few phrases that Logan has started using pretty frequently this month. The first is when he wants to be held. Instead of saying, "hold me," Logan asks by saying, "hold you." It's so cute! The other I hear every once in a while when he wakes up in the morning or after a nap. Logan will sit up in his crib and ask, "Mama coming?"
