Thanksgiving in Omaha

This past week we returned to Omaha to spend Thanksgiving with our family and to have Logan Baptized in the same Church Jeremy and I were married in. It was such a great week! I got to see a few good friends as well as spend some much needed time with both of our families. Logan had his first experience of the ever changing Nebraska weather (although the week we were there was quite mild) as well as meeting some of my cousins kiddos. Thanksgiving was wonderful. My Mom always does a fabulous job hosting and preparing a great meal. Finally we Baptized Logan at Mary Our Queen Church on Sunday. It was a good culmination to the week. I am so thankful for my family and it was such a blessing to get to see both sides of our family at the same time. We love you all!

Here is the week in pictures . . .

Logan also turned 4 months old on November 24th.
Some things he is doing now:
  • Babbleing a lot more
  • He no longer needs to be in a "straight jacket" to go to sleep, but he still likes to be swaddled
  • He is so so close to sitting on his own
  • He has just started to giggle or it's more of a gurgle at this point
  • EVERYTHING goes in his mouth but no teeth yet
  • He loves to smile
  • He typically takes three solid naps a day
  • He loves to hold things in his hands and investigate them thoroughly
All the Grandparents decided to go for a walk to look at Christmas lights after Thanksgiving. They took Logan along. I am pretty sure Logan was unsure of the whole situation ("Where are these people taking me in the cold and dark without my Mommy and Daddy"?)and to be honest so was I!
Just Kidding :)

Jaxon and Logan were becoming friends. Jaxon was very sweet to Logan and Logan thought Jaxon was the greatest. They even held hands. So cute!
