Princess Day

Last weekend, Hailey and I headed to Princess Day at Chickfila. Hailey got all prettied up and I curled her hair, but her hair is like mine and the curls were gone before we made it across town.

The people at Chickfila really went all out. Everything was decorated so cute. I'm talking flowers, balloons, tablecloths, chair covers, tulle, and sparkles everywhere you looked. Most of the workers were wearing ball gowns and tuxes. Hailey loved looking at all the "beautiful princesses".

We had a great time riding in the limo, making crafts, and getting Hailey's face painted. She even got to sit on a huge horse! Every girl deserves to feel like a princess.

Logan at 6 months

Logan is 6 months old! (well actually 6 1/2 months today). He is growing so fast!

At his 6 month checkup, Logan was 29 inches tall, still taller than 99 percent of boys his age and weighed 18 lbs 3 ounces, right about average for his age. He's a pound heavier and 2 inches taller than what Hailey was at 6 months.

He is wearing 9 month clothes and could probably wear some 12 months cause his body is so stinkin long.

He is learning to sit up. This seems to be a little challenging because again, he is so long from the waist up that it is hard for him to balance.

He rolls like a roly poly and is trying to crawl. He gets up on his arms and wiggles back and forth but can't quite figure out how it works.

Logan is also developing his little personality. He is still easy going. He likes to jabber and loves to giggle. He's very expressive with his eyebrows. He often gives you that "what the heck look", just like his daddy and when Hailey starts throwing one of her fits he just giggles and looks like "you've got to be frickin kidding me". Couldn't have said it better myself son! But boy do you have a lot to learn about girls--let's just hold off on that for several years!

Hailey Day

Last week, Hailey, Kevin, and I skipped work/school to spend the day together.  We dropped Logan off at daycare and headed to see Clifford the Big Red Dog Live! 

Waiting for the show to start

 Hailey loves reading the Clifford books, so when she saw the advertisement for the show she went nuts!  The show was pretty cute.  Hailey got a little bored about halfway through, but I guess that's not too bad for a bouncy 3 year old.

 After the show, we headed to McDonald's (Hailey's choice) for lunch then home for a quick nap.  We spent the afternoon playing at the park. 

 

 

 

 We topped off our day with a trip to Toys r Us and Goody's Frozen Yogurt.  Hailey took full advantage of all the toppings-- m&m's, reeses pieces, oreos, chocolate chips, and sprinkles.  We had a fun day!  We really enjoyed getting to spend time with our little princess.

Back to Blogging

Well, I fell off the blog wagon once again!  As much as I would love to say we've been on a fabulous month long Mediterranean vacation, the furthest we've been from home since last summer is Fayetteville!  It really has been pretty wild around here lately.  I recently took a new position at work.  I'm still in the BSA dept, but now I'm supervising.  This is a job I've wanted for a long time, but it's definitely a big adjustment and longer hours.  I'm hoping things settle down (at least somewhat) soon!

Life at the Johnson house has been a blur of bottles, diapers, pb&j sandwiches, cartoons, and baths.  It seems like the weeks are just flying by!  Logan is growing so fast, he will be six months old this weekend!

Here's what we've been up to:

     Hailey and Logan had a pajama party at school

 Hailey and Mommy had a breakfast date

 Valentine's Day

 Logan is getting better at sitting up,

he still needs some help though

 Hanging out it Hailey's tent.

They love playing together.

 Hailey has mastered the art of getting a cookie

EVERYtime she sets foot in the mall

 Logan had his first taste of rice cereal,

the face says it all!  He has since tried sweet potatoes,

squash, carrots, pears, and apples.  

He is not a fan of green beans!

 

Tummy time is getting a little better.

He likes playing with his toys and rolls around a lot.

 

Baby boy loves to smile!

 

  I love these cutie pies!
