and now..
Logan is such a big boy. He can now open the refrigerator and can get string cheese for himself. With Cooper, he will sit and play or tell him everything is okay when he cries. He is a great big brother, yet doesn't quite understand what to do if Cooper is touching him. I heard him say, "No Cooper, you can't play with my light saber. Here play with your toy." He then handed him is baby Elmo to play with. Logan loves to read books and play Star Wars Clone Wars. Lightning McQueen is definitely his favorite toy. We are still working on potty training, which seems like it is taking forever, but I have been encouraged that he will not go to kindergarten in diapers. He got to go sledding for the first time and got to ride in a firetruck. He was fireman for Halloween. Logan not only repeats everything you say, but also answers the questions Jason and I ask each other. The best part is little spontaneous things like randomly touching you and saying "Pokey". Or when he asks, "Mommy are you okay?" He melts my heart!
Cooper is going to outgrow Logan this spring I think. He is scooting, almost crawling, and loves to roll around. He loves to jump and stand up if you hold his fingers. He is in 12 months clothes, and we have him in size four diapers along with his brother. This kid loves to eat, eat, eat. He grabbed a curly fry off of the table the other day and ate it before I could stop him. He also had his first pizza crust on New Year's Eve. I remember forcing Logan to try stuff, but it comes naturally to Cooper. He can even drink out of a sippy, which we now have to watch and make sure Logan doesn't leave his lying around. He babbles a little. So far buh buh is his most common sound. His laugh is hilarious. It sounds like a baby machine gun. He is growing up so quickly, and I am left stunned by the differences in my children. It won't be long though until they are running around together.
