2 week check up..

We had Logan's 2 week check-up this week and lets just say we definately have a little porker!!! He was born at 7lbs 8.8 oz and was down to 7 lbs 3 oz when we left the hospital and at his 2 week check-up he was 8 lbs 14 oz already!!! I can't believe how much weight he has already gained, I guess he is trying to catch up to where his brother was at that age and is definately on pace to do that quickly!!! He was pretty much in the 50% percentile for all things, height, weight and head circumference. I have a feeling by his 2 month appointment he may be way ahead of this though!!! I can't believe it has been two weeks already, it has flown by!! We have definitely kept ourselves busy though between baseball games and traveling out of town. We took Logan on his first trip to Mankato, MN at 11 days old to a wedding of some friends of ours. It was great to get to see everyone up there and for them to all get to see Logan. We were lucky enough to have some brave friends that let us stay in their house with a newborn baby and all the late night noise that brings, (Thanks Jay and Ang!!!) Here are some pics from around 2 weeks old:

Welcome Logan Daniel....

Ok, so I know this is a few weeks late, but better late then never right!!! I have been saying I wasn't going to do the blog for Logan because I don't have enough time, but after some complaining about how unfair this would be for Logan (thanks mom!!!) I decided I can try and do one post a week. I did Austin's whole first year in the blog and then made it into a book, so I am going to attempt to do this for Logan as well, so here goes:



Logan entered this big crazy world on Monday May 3rd. I was induced again this time, not really for any medical reason (with Austin they were worried about how large he was getting), but more for convenience. It was nice with work and Austin's daycare situation to know when exactly this event was going to take place. It happened to be just an added bonus that both boys were born on the 3rd so it will be easy to remember:):) I was induced at around 8 am and he decided to arrive about 5:45 after I spent 32 minutes (yes it was 32 minutes exactly, we were defaintely keeping track) holding him in until my doctor could get there in rush hour traffic. This was not an easy or fun experience, but it did make the pushing part easy. On his birth sheet my official push time went down as "less then one minute", and he came right out with only 2 pushes. It was quite a surprise it was a boy, as Matt pretty much had us all convinced it was a girl. Guess we'll just have to keep trying for our girl:):) Logan was 20.5 inches long and weighed 7lbs 8.8oz. Everything went smoothly and we have a healthy little boy. Here are some pics from his first few days.
