Some Mommy-Shocking Logan Moments

Logan had a few different mommy-shocking moments today. He has recently made the transition from 2 to 1 naps/day, and it hasn't always been easy. Today we headed out to Kohl's at about 10:30 or so. Logan fell asleep before we were 1/2 way there (and it's not a long drive). I decided to do my shopping anyway, so I packed him into the store and put him in one of the stroller carts. After a few minutes of shopping, I felt bad for the poor guy because he was in and out of sleep and his head was bobbing back and forth, back and forth. So, I decided to pick him up and carry him, while pushing the cart with my other arm. This brings us to our 1st mommy-shocking moment of the day: Given Logan's history of only sleeping in his crib and his car seat, I never thought I'd be one of those moms with a sleeping child on her chest, but there I was, right in the middle of Kohl's! Not only was Logan sleeping on me, I was walking around the store, bending over, picking things up, and he was staying asleep. Crazy! I finally had to put Logan back in the stroller cause my arm was getting tired. No need for weight lifting here.

I don't know if I've posted this before, but Logan LOVES Costco samples. It's crazy. He will eat almost anything. And yes, I have been suckered into buying things (because I'm so excited that he'll actually eat them), only to watch Logan turn his nose up at them once we're home. That wouldn't be so bad if they were ordinary packages, but these are Costco-sized packages of items that Logan will no longer eat. Hmmmphhhh. Anyway, that brings me to today's Costco experience. They were demo-ing some BlendTec (maybe?) blenders that make hot soup, grind wheat into flour, and even churn up ice cream. Logan really enjoyed the ice cream sample - not too shocking, except for the fact that the guy threw a handful of carrots into the ice cream. There you have Logan's 2nd mommy-shocking moment of the day: he ate carrots AND he kept asking for more!

To finish things off, I have to mention the fact that I snuck into Logan's room during his nap in order to (hopefully) find my phone. When I looked over to check him out, this is what I saw:

There he was, crib pulled out a foot or so from the wall, lying on his back with his legs between the bars of the crib. I just had to get a picture! I tried no flash, but it didn't turn out, so I risked waking him up and took a picture flash and all. How cute is that? Cute, probably not comfortable, but cute!
