I have been incredibly bad at blogging lately. I enjoy reading all of my friends posts when they update their blog, but yet, I never have the ambition to do ours:( I'm going to work on this - or try anyway.
Whats new:
-Logan is 16 months now.
At her 15month check up she was:
22lbs 1 oz - 25th percent for weight
32 1/2 inches for height - 97th + for height
Logan still refuses to walk on her own. I know that she knows how and can do it, but still lacks the confidence to do it alone. The pediatrician said that we need to not force it on her and that we need to stop spoiling her buy picking her up all the time..... ooops. I guess that's more my fault than hers. We are both working on it.
Logan is loving her new daycare. She has a friend name Charlie and plays with him all of the time! From the moment that I drop her off, she wants down and crawls as fast as she can over to him. I was a bit worried about how she would do at daycare, since it's a new place, but she loves it!
Shayne had her graduation from preschool today. I will post pictures later. It was adorable.... they sang a lot of songs, she got a certificate and her picture taken with her teachers. The teachers asked each kid what they wanted to be when they grew up. Each kid had replied with a doctor, dentist, teacher, etc. Shayne said.... "I'M GOING TO BE A TEENAGER". The teacher said, okay, what will you be after that? Shayne replied "WELL OLD." Everyone in the class burst into laughter. Her teachers said that she's the sweetest, funniest kid in the class and that they just adore her. Rich and I love hearing that of course.
Shayne also participated in a trike a thon for her preschool and raised money for St. Jude's Children's Hospital. Thanks to her Grandma and Grandpa Stenseth, Aunt Brittney, donations from friends and us - she raised the most money in the school!! We were gone when they did the re-run for the trike - a - thon, so she gets her own special make up day tomorrow and gets a special certificate. She's so excited!!!

| Fun at the ocean |
 |
| These two went everywhere in the stroller. It was adorable and much easier to move about! |
 |
| Logan kept trying to put her head in the water when we were taking all of the underwater pics. So..... as any good parent would do LOL we dunked her. The picture looks like she drank a TON of water, but she didn't. Logan also wanted to do it over an over and over again, but I said twice was enough! |
We went to Mexico last week as a family. It was very relaxing and a fun trip. We were at the pool almost every day and were in bed by 9 each night. Who would have known that swimming ALL DAY LONG and not napping made everyone tired?
 |
| The pool had two kiddy pools, an infinity pool, regular pool and hot tubs. It was amazing! |
 |
| In our room, there were windows everywhere that had doors that shut for privacy. Of course they were at Logan's reach, so this was one of her favorite parts I think of the trip! Watching the birds outside and having everything at her level |
 |
| Shayne wanted to be thrown time after time... over and over again. She was the entertainment at the pool most days. She knew almost everyones name at the resort. "Hi Linda, Hi Laurie, Hi Rob, Hi Pam, Hi Pat, Hi.......etc Social Butterfly!!!!! |
 |
| My family use to go down to Mazatlan a lot when I was young and the man in the middle, Roman is a good friend of my parents and grandparents. He invited us to his house for lunch. It was great seeing him again and having him meet my family. Below is a picture of Roman's mom with Logan.... She LOVED Logan and would't let her go ~ it was quite cute! Logan was also fond of her as well. |
 |
| At one of the restaurants that the resort that we ate at quite often, this hostess would say hello to Shayne every time she walked by the table. "Hola Shayne" The first night Shayne introduced herself to her and some of the waiters. Since it was lot of the same staff each day ~ everyone knew my 4 year old my name. No joke! "hola shayne" we heard everywhere and Shayne would reply "Hola and whatever their name was" Mayer of Mazatlan I tell you! |

 |
| Logan fell asleep every day in her stroller by the pool for her afternoon nap. She fit right in with all of the older people also sleeping LOL! Such a good baby! |
