Baby Fever

Nope - I'm not pregnant (nor am I trying to become so)...

But, we just had a visit from our Christmas-day nephew, Speed for two weeks at the end of July. The boys sure loved being around him. They were especially excited to dig out their old baby toys to bring over to Grandma Rita's house so the poor, deprived kid had something to play with. Carter was a bit smothering; Logan could've really cared less that Speed was there. Speedy reminds me a lot of Logan - how he just sits and studies everything that's going on around him. Pretty mellow (with the exception of the one time Carter hit him...then he milked it for all it was worth from Grandma!).

Proud cousin, Carter "holdeeen duh babeee"

On top of that - we just found out we are going to have another niece in December...hopefully not sooner. That will bring our grand total to 4 nieces and 4 nephews (half by blood, half by marriage). The more the merrier! So, today I went shopping! I managed to get only one PINK outfit...I know her mommy didn't want Caitlyn always dressed in pink, so I tried to spread the wealth over the color spectrum. After four and a half years of baseball, frogs and monster trucks, it's nice to look at a few butterflies, hearts and flowers.

Lastly, Logan finished up his first season of soccer. He managed to kick the ball 4 times this entire season (once on purpose). Apparently he lacks his father's athletic aggression. It was common for the ball to come right to him and he'd just back up and let the other kids have it. On the very last day, we were cheering "Logan, kick the ball". He turned and yelled back "I can't find the ball." WHAP! Right in the chest. Gotta love the irony.

Pretty typical sightings at each game this year...Logan doing just about anything BUT playing soccer!
