Logan turned SEVEN

#19/25/09
Where oh WHERE has the time gone?  My little Boo Bear has turned SEVEN on me and I can still remember the day that he made his appearance into the world and he stole my heart FOREVER.

This little boy is the most unique little thing I have ever seen and you would not believe his love for Jesus.  I am so thrilled that he loves Him so much.

For Logan's Birthday he requested many things...here is the list:

#2
1. Waffles for Breakfast
2. Peanut Butter and Jelly sandwiches for lunch and Grandma to come eat them with him
3. Butterfly Pavillion with the Family (Grandma, Nette, Torrey, Turner and his mom and brothers - his daddy was in California, Grandpa was working and the K Larson's are in Georgia-BOO) - He got a membership for his birthday from Grandma and Grandpa Choo Choo.
   
4. Coffee with his Mommy (His mom always told him that he had to be 7 before he got to drink coffee, so after the butterfly pavillion, we all went to Forza's to have coffee and the kids played Chinese Checkers with Grandma and Torrey)
5. Beer Cheese Soup - or better known as Logan's Favorite Soup for supper with the family
6. Banana splits with Grandpa and the family

#4Who can't love this doll...he knows what he wants and what is important...if you see all the FAMILY requests in there, that is what he views as special to him.  I totally love that about him.

The pictures that I have were taken by my Sister with our Camera as she forgot hers.  I have several too, but haven't downloaded them yet.  I was having fun taking some creative shots so will try to upload those later.

#1 - Casey holding Rosie the Tarantula

#2 - Logan holding Rosie the Tarantula

#3 - Grandma with the kids which is where you can find her most times.

#4 - Simon liked climbing up and down the steps and wanted our attention while he did it.  All the other kids were petting a starfish or horseshoe crab.

#5 - Simon liked the puddles, the drains and the bridges in here.  Didn't care so much about the butterflies that everyone else was staring at.

#6 - Logan enjoying the Zip Line.  Grandma pretty much lived here for a while.  Our kids kept wanting to go so she helped them reach the handle and every other kid that came up, she helped too.

#7 - Casey on the Zip line.  We were all surprised he could hang on because when it stopped, it really flung the kids hard.  Open the picture up larger and see his CUTE smile.

#8 - Casey was trying another vantage point to get his bean bag into a hole.

#9 - Can you handle how cute this larvae is?

#10 - At the end of the exhibit was a fun place for the kids to play a bit. Casey didn't like the spider in the web at all.

Weaning --> Weaned

Well, I never thought that Turner would be an early weaner (haha) but it appears that he is not longer having interest in nursing and wanting only a bottle.

I spent the afternoon crying in his room when I was trying to feed him and he just rejected me to stare at Daddy. He is such an independent little guy already and I HATE it. Why do they grow up so fast. In just a few short weeks he will be 1.

I haven't given up completely yet, but I think we are done nursing at this point. Torrey tried to encourage me and tell me we will have more that I can nurse. He always wants to fix things for me.

Casey is called a Wombat so Uncle Kelly drew a Super Wombat for Caser.

Caser's cake - He picked what he wanted and Mommy made it.

Great Grammy Al seeing Turner for the first time.

Caser being himself.

Why is it that Blogger adds the pictures in the reverse order of what you think they will post them?
