I'm calling Henry and Logan!

[laurski81]

nursedesi let's see and hear about your adorable boys!

[nursedesi]

Yay! I havent been on much lately because Logan has learned how to roll both ways and I'm constantly chasing him. He will be 7 months on the 16th.

Logan was very much planned but a surprise. We had actually talked about going back to the RE because I hadn't gotten pregnant yet.

Logans a super chill kid. Much like Henry was. Hes very content to jump in his jumper for 30+ minutes. Absolutely loves Henry and I think will be crawling soon just so he can keep up with him. Logan is a boob boy, just like Henry was. Not crazy about solids yet. He loves it when we nibble on his neck and feet. Hes figured out how to chew on his toes. Yuck.







Henry... where to being. He was very easy going and cautious up until about a month ago. Hes definitely testing the limits. Hes began to put his imaginext toys in his mouth, eat paper and become more daring. But I guess thats just part of being 2.

Hes always been very sweet. We've both has a stomach bug the last two days and he said "me hug you. You all better now". If someone is crying he will hug them. We have two cats and he always asks about them and tries to hug them.

He frequently asks about my friends kids that are his friends. He loves to hold hands with us or his friends. We go to story time at the library and hes quite the ham. It takes him a while to warm up but after that its on.

Henrys favorite foods are shrimp dipped in ranch, sunflower seeds, chips, crackers, any dairy and cantaloupe. And of course icecream.

Hes always been a little behind with speech but in January he had a pretty large vocabulary explosion and it seems that hes picking up new words every day. My least favorite is "die". MIL plays giys with him and says that they die... so hes picked that up. I just tell him they are really hurt when he says that. I so dont want to have to explain the permanence of death yet.

He completely adores Logan and always wants to help with him and hold him. He always makes sure he has something to play with. Hes very kissy with him. Weve had a terrible winter with illness and he gets so frustrated when he cant love on him.

But all in all he's a super laid back kid that would love to live at the park if he could.







And pics of them together!











Thanks for letting me AW my boys!

They are just so cute! I don't think we see enough of them on here I love Logan's chubby cheeks and little baby mohawk, haha! And Henry sounds like such a good big brother!

[laurski81]

Aww what sweet boys you have! How did Henry initially react when you brought Logan home? Did it take him awhile for him to adjust?

[somethingcleverer]

They are such handsome boys!
I love that Henry likes to love on his brother. Can you see any similarities in their personalities yet?

[aimeefarrahfowler]

Oh! I forgot my question. How did their labor/births compare? Was the second go-around with a newborn easier or harder?

[bantyrooster]

So cute! Can't wait to see them his summer. Logan looks less like Henry's twin as he ages! Still look a lot alike though.

[paddyb]

[origamimommy]

He came out to the hospital twice to see him and hold him. He was so excited. We played it up a lot before Logan was born about him going to be a big brother and that I would need him to help. He adjusted very well. But MH also took 6 weeks off and kept him busy while I took care of Logan.

They are both very easy going. I couldnt ask for easier baby stages with these two! One thing that is different is that wirh Henry I could offer to feed him anytime and he would eat so I wouldn't have to NIP. Logan is much chunkier but gets so mad if I try to feed him and hes not hungry!

Both boys were planned csections. Henry was transverse and Logan was too up till the end. My hospital doesnt do vbacs.

I think the 2nd newborn phase was much easier knowing what to expect and napped when he did. Instead of just staring at him all day! But the recovery was much harder the second time. I just had lots more pain for longer.

[nursedesi]

Because everyone had mentioned his much they look alike!

Newborn


5 months


At first they looked so much a like but Logan is growing into his own little person!

[cbear]

What suprise me the most about henry was how cautious he was. I always read about kids climbing everything and getting into things. That wasnt him at all. He was perfectly content playing with the toys infront of him or with us.

What surprises me the most about Logan is what a chunk he is compared to Henry. Logan passed Henry's 6 month weight at 4 months. Kid loves milk!

They are adorable! We definitely don't see enough of them

[starfishy]

Aww! They are both so cute. They definitely look like brothers.
Thank you for sharing them!

[xanthepants]

Oh my they are so cute! I totally need to see more of them too! I have a pretty cautious kid too that never really got into stuff. I considered myself so lucky! Heehee. I think they are just adorable!

[cookiesandwine]

[babywinks]
