Day G -- Growing by Leaps & Bounds

Hmmm...what could I possibly do for Day G??

Oh yeah! That's right. I get to dedicate a whole post to my littles :)

Obviously Luke & Logan are both growing way faster than I ever hoped or imagined.

Let's start with Luke Matthew. My first born, my first love.


Seriously. Holy 3 year old! Literally, he went to bed one night as my sweet baby and the next morning he woke up as an anory little boy. Yes, a boy not a baby. My once laid back, tender hearted baby is now a little shit. And I mean that in the nicest way possible. He has this wit about him. That is funny, but...at the same time not cool. He knows way more than what I give him credit for.

He is physically growing just as well. Less than two feet and he will have surpassed his Mama. That day, I will cry. And I am extremely over joyed to tell you that his belly has grown too!! After a horrible scare from the doctor saying he was malnurished and wanting to send him to a food specialist, I can say that the boy eats! Not as much as a typical boy his age, but he is eating none the less!

He amazes me every.single.day. His empathy towards others, when he counts to 10, when he runs up to me and hugs me, when he says I missed you Mommy, when he kisses his brother on the forehead and tells him it will be ok, when he colors me a picture, when he hates to see his Daddy go to work, when he rides his bicycle (with training wheels), or pees on the potty, or dances, or laughs. Yes, I would say my first born is growing way faster than I would like him to.

After much debate, we have decided that we are not going to send him to pre-school this fall. But that time too will come. I'm not ready for it. I don't know if I will ever be ready for it. So even though my baby big boy is growing by leaps and bounds, I am going to savior every minute I have with him before I have to share him with the rest of the world in a very short time.


And then there is my baby. My sweet baby Logan Bradlee :)


He just makes my heart smile. He has this grin that will just make you want to have 4739873 more babies. I don't know what it is about that boy that makes everything in the world just disapper. The bad, the ugly, the dishes, making dinner. When I'm around him all I want to do is hold him and talk sweet nothings into his ear.

He is growing way way faster than I want him to. Because at least for the time being, he is.my.baby. My baby that I want to stay wittle forever. He just started crawling, and popped another tooth, and eats non stop, and is standing on his own. Waaaahhhhhh.

Physically, well physically he could possibly pass his brother up if he keeps eating the way he does. Ha, I looove me some chunky baby! :) And well. He must be growing taller too. All of his pants look like capris on him at the time being. Guess we need to go on a shopping spree!!


Oh I don't even want to think about them "growing up". It really just makes my heart truly ache. But yes, my big boy and my baby boy are both growing by leaps and bounds. And there is absolutely nothing I can do about. I think of this song every.single.day and just remind myself..... to let them be..... little <3


sigh :(
