Kids showing off

After work last Thursday we all walked over a few blocks away to pick up
our car from the repair shop. Once there, the kind woman at the front
desk commented on how our kids sure were growing up and getting big.
She also told Logan how smart he was by how he was talking. To that
Logan replied, "I want to see the mechanic." "I want to see the
mechanic that fixed our car." Taken a bit aback, the woman went into
the garage and grabbed Bruce, our mechanic. Upon his arrival, Logan
remarked, "Thank you for fixing our car, Bruce" and other happy and
cheery messages. Across the road, Logan and Dad then proceeded to enter
the mail demountable where we pick up letters received from the U.S. I
asked Logan to go find our mailbox (one of about 180 mailboxes).
Without complaining, he went over and pointed to our last name and said,
"There is our mail!" Luckily for Logan, his last name is not too
difficult, however Dad was still very happy that Logan figured it out on
his own.

Delenn is continuing to have issues with focusing on drinking from
Momma. Anytime there is activity or noise in the vicinity, she's got to
keep up with what is going on. And that means she can't be bothered
with a little thing like drinking. Well you know Logan isn't going to
be quiet for something like that, so Delenn finds herself fixated on her
older Brother (and other things) much of the time. Which in turn causes
Mom a painful nighttime of extra feeds to make up for it. On a bright
note, it sure is fun to watch Delenn giggle and laugh hysterically at
Logan, especially when he hops around. Today in the living room Dad and
Logan were playing a hopping game, jumping from shape to shape (circle
to triangle to square to star...) Delenn again was ticked pink by
Logan's hopping. Not by Daddy in the slightest, but only Logan.
At dinner Dad spent most of the time holding Delenn up away from his
meal. She likes to stand for long periods and she especially likes to
reach for anything and everything within reach on the table in front of
her. Needless to say, a spoon and cup placed especially for her were
there, and she always managed to (although quite awkwardly) bend over
and pick the objects up, sometimes transferring the object into her
other hand, and other times trying to stick them in her mouth. At this
rate, we fear for a kid that is mobile before she should be!
