2 weeks old

Today was Alyssa's 2 week appointment! She has reached 8lbs and is doing great. Her umbilical cord has been hanging on by a string for about 5 days now and keeping us from giving her a real bath. So today Dr. Roque took care of it. Neither of us looked, but he assured us she wouldn't feel a thing! Besides that, all is quiet in the Logsdon household... literally... this little girl is a Mom's dream- she sleeps A LOT! Took a picture of Alyssa to replicate a shot we took of Addison... no doubt they are sisters, they look SO much alike! We are really looking forward to our photography session with Amy Smith, a sorority sister of mine who does newborn and children photography. Her work is amazing and all I can hope is she makes us look as good as some of her other clients! :) Look for pictures coming soon....

2 year old picture

Obviously I will NEVER be one of those lucky women who stay home with their kids and make money blogging. It's been 9 months since I've updated- seriously it is just sad! What makes it even worse is that I spend hours, literally hours, on the computer every single night. Whether it is on Facebook or reading other people's blogs, I could really take the 15 minutes to update this one! So let's see.....As I look back on my last entry dated February 4th, I would have NEVER guessed that the URL we chose "thelogsdoncrew" would ever really mean a "crew". Crew to us always meant Lenore, Brian, Addison, Oliver, and of course Toni the bird. Little did we know that "Smudge" was already very much part of our "crew". Baby Logsdon #2 became affectionately named "Smudge" because at our first doctor's appointment at 7 weeks along, that is all he/she looked like. Needless to say the last 9 months have been a whirlwind! We all (family, friends, and us) adjusted to another baby. Addison celebrated her 2nd birthday, not sure how that happened so quickly but it did! She is talking up a storm, or maybe I should say repeating...EVERYTHING!!!! Good, bad, or indifferent! :) She doesn't quite understand the whole baby thing. When we ask her where the baby is, she lifts her shirt and says in her belly. Not quite, but I guess close enough. Tonight she was kissing Smudge and then pulled my shirt down over my belly and said "cover it". It was pretty funny... So many other things have transpired over the past 9 months, I can't even recall! So in a nutshell- LIFE IS GOOD!!!!! We are just sitting around waiting as tomorrow brings us to 39 weeks. Bags are packed, Addison's buddy Miss Krissy is all ready to come whenever she receives the "this is it" call. A cash pool is circulating and everyone is very anxious to know if we will be adding a 7th granddaughter to the Logsdon family or if we will break the trend and get that boy!!!! Seems as if there are a lot of people leaning towards boy, but they were with Addison too! Names you ask???? Well along with the sex, IT'S A SURPRISE!!!!!!! LOL... stay tuned!
