logan at 2.5 years old.

our little logan is such a spitfire these days.  she continues to be a ball of energy, and is constantly on the move.  she loves to run away from us and yell, "come chase me!" and  "i'm fast!" and she is.  we are in a full on spirit to catch her.  we are doing more art projects at home these days as summer rolls in to which she keeps saying "this is fun mommy!"  she has finally stopped putting everything in her mouth and isn't constantly exploring the materials.  she LOVES to read {or be read to actually}, enjoys her bath time/swimming lessons, and loves to bust a move when she hears music.  she continues to be BIG on hugs and kissing her own boo boo when she gets hurt.  

with all the wonderful and delightful aspects of this age, logan has also entered the terrible twos in a lot of ways.  tantrums are at every corner {some lasting two seconds and others lasting all afternoon}.  she has started to rock no naps about every 10 days, which is AWFUL - i hope hope this does not continue.  mama still needs a break!  she fights me on everything and things have to be done by herself - "i do it myself!"  getting dressed in the morning is a full on 30 minute endeavor because little logs doesn't want to get out of her pjs.  i might have restored to giving her bribes {raisins covered in yogurt}.  and potty training is a whole other issue.  we started off great and i thought - we got this and now she refuses to even sit on the toiet.

but, we press on!  {as my buddy megan would say!}  and i try to remind myself that it will not always be like this forever {the good and the bad} - so we need to savor it.  i'm sure we will blink and we will be missing this stage.  we also need to practice our patience a little more.  always a little bit more with a toddler.  we love you dearly sweet pea!
