Logan

Many people ask me why we are going to name our son Logan. It all started when me and my husband (then boyfriend) went to see X-men legends wolverine. Spencer turned to me and said, "what about the name Logan?" I LOVED IT!!! it also had a lot of meaning too. it was our first midnight movie, we are both fans of super heros, Logan is the city where we both went to school, where we both met, and on my side of the family it's where my grandma and grandpa were married and where my grandma and grandpa are from. So as you can tell it's a pretty meaningful name for us. Logan Spencer Banks. Can't wait to hold him in our arms! :)

childish

So it's officially 11:40 on a Friday night. what am I doing you ask? Out partying? nope! Me and my wonderful husband are sitting on the couch together watching veggie tales. Childish I know but lets be honest. I've never really felt like I've grown up. To be honest I don't ever want to "grow up". Yes I know we are having a baby but to be honest, I'm really looking forward to having another person to play with. Me, Spencer and Logan are going to have so much fun! painting outside, playing pretend, playing sports, swimming and running ourselves tired! I'm so excited to watch sesame street and arthur. Yeah for staying young!!! :) :)

Apology

This is a formal apology to my wonderful husband. I know I have been totally crazy since this pregnancy thing. My moods change so extremely fast and the majority of the time I don't even know why. My husband though, he is my rock. He is my steady person in this crazy time. Oh I love my husband! I know he doesn't understand me when I don't even understand myself nor my logic. He always remains calm and hugs me when I need it and cuddles me when I suddenly burst into tears. He is so loving and I couldn't have asked for a better husband. Such a wonderful man whom I'm blessed to be with for all of eternity. I LOVE YOU SWEETY!!! MUAH!

DISHWASHER!!!

Best news of the day! We have a dishwasher!!!! Ever since we got married we haven't had a dishwasher, everything we had to wash by hand. With a baby on the way there was NO way that we were going to wash baby bottles by hand. (we would if we had to but man we didn't want to). I am SO SO SO happy for a dishwasher. I completely took it for granted when I lived at home and in my apartment my first year and a half up at school. NEVER AGAIN!

yah i need to get better at writing

our little man is getting so big! it's so hard to believe how much he's grown already! oh that's right, i forgot to tell y'all WE'RE HAVING A BOY!!!! just what we wanted! we are so happy! he kicks and squirms so much! oh how i love the feeling :) spencer put his head on my stomach the other day and logan (what we are naming our son) kicked his face. the other night after i had fallen asleep i guess spencer had his hand on my stomach and logan kicked really really hard. I think it was his way of father son bonding through the womb. We are so excited for this little baby. I don't think i can wait another 3 months! we have the changing table all set up and a dresser too. We even bought cute lil outfits for him. Logan is already spoiled! Grandma Susan buys him lots of clothes and soft blankies! he also got a blankie and burp clothes from Nana Banks too. And my neighbors from back home, the cravens (LOVE EM!), made him a little blankie to go in the crib! I just can't wait to snuggle little Logan and rock him to sleep and smell the new baby smell and have him here in our arms. I know it's going to be hard work but I really have a strong feeling with him. (I'm sure I will feel this way about all of my kids) I know he's going to grow up to be someone wonderful and so strong! I, myself, hope for him to be so much like his daddy Spencer. I want people to see my son with my husband and say, "he looks just like you." *with a lil of mommy in him too lol This little boy, our little boy, is going to be an amazing person. someone who is kind and gentle, shy but with a personality, deep eyes that melt your soul and hands that melt your heart. I can't wait for you little Logan. Mommy and Daddy (and everyone else) can't wait to meet you! December can't come soon enough but I'm going to try and enjoy being pregnant and having our little moments now because this time in life only comes once. I am so grateful for this experience. I always wondered if I would have the opportunity to bear a child. Now that it's here it's so hard to believe. It really is the best time in the world. The time when you get to become a mom. no matter how fast it happens. Being a mom is wonderful and I can already tell that I am going to Love it!!!
