Happy Thanksgiving

Jen and I enjoyed a wonderful Thanksgiving this year with our two little ones!  We are so blessed and thankful that Madison and Logan are in our lives.

Sometimes we get so busy and tired that we forget how truly wonderful it is to have them both in our lives.  Logan is doing very well and you would never know he had surgery about 5 weeks ago.  Madison is still such a cute little angel.

We hope all of you had a wonderful turkey day as well.

Having fun & playing

Here is a cute pic of Madison and Logan playing on their play mat yesterday.  As usual, Madison loves to be the goof.  They are really starting to enjoy each other and play together now.  It's fun to watch!  Logan is rapidly gaining on his sister in size, weight and development now.

This weekend we decided that we were going to work on dropping thier 3:30-4:00am-ish feeding.  Needless to say, they were not thrilled with this idea and we have definately heard about it from them.  We decided that to just tough it out for a couple nights and push forward.  Logan did well with it on Friday night and Madison did good with it last night.  Hopefully tonight they will both do well with it.  Maybe by next weekend they will have totally adjusted their sleep/eat schedule.

Uncle Garth teaches Logan to use the remote!

Uncle Garth is in town and staying with us for a few days.  He is definately enjoying Madison and Logan.  Logan is definately on a growth spurt right now and catching up to Madison very quickly.

Jen took Logan to get his RSV shot yesterday and they gave us strict orders not to take Logan out of the house until May!  May?  Holy Schlamoly!  Yep, that's correct.  Excpet for Doctor appts and places where the will have very little public exposure.  We can't take the kids to any public places where they could catch anything.  No malls, no pictures with Santa, no family get togethers for Thanksgiving or Christmas.  Logan is really at risk if he catches anything at all.  It's disappointing that their first year of life will be so confined, but a small sacrafice to keep him safe and healthy.

We can have a few (adult) visitors at times as long as they are feeling well and haven't been around anyone that is sick.  It's sad that we can't have other kids over for a while.  Madison absolutly adores other little children.  Hope everyone is doing great!  Send a prayer our direction now and then. 

Logan Update: Cardiologist Appt for check up today.

Hey everyone!  Hope you are all doing well and still following Logan's blog from time to time.

Madison and Logan have been doing great.  It's taken a few days but we are getting them both back onto a routine...although the time change didn't help things.

Logan had his first follow up appt. today with his Cardiologist and seems to be doing very  well.  His wound is healing nicely and his EKG came back good.  The Dr. told us about a few things to keep an eye out for...but hopefully we have no issues in the coming weeks.  Logan does have a little leak in his valve, but we knew that might be the case and it shouldn't be anything to worry about.  He will get a full Echo in about a month and we will really be able to see how his heart is doing and healing.

Jen and I are doing well.  We are finally getting caught up and back into our routines as well.  We just need just keep everyone healthy and get ready for the holidays.
