Where Did June Go?

I can't believe today is the last day of June! I had a great month being a stay at home mom. This is something I can definitely get used to. There is more and more talk between Brian and I of me staying home for good in the very near future! I feel lucky and blessed that we may be able to make this happen. Logan is learning more each day. He has begun to repeat things we say. Like I will say "Don't put that in your mouth it is kaka (meaning yucky)." Logan will then repeat "kaka" over and over! When he wants a cookie it also sounds like kaka. He says gog for dog and sometimes will say things that sound like "good girl" when talking to our dog Dakota and "thank you." He seems to do something or say something new each day. Since walking came so early for Logan (11 months) he is now running full speed. He also loves to climb on and in everything and anything. Logan plays really well by himself, but I really like to play with him as well and we read lots of books -even though his attention span is like 2 minutes long! He loves being outside and playing in the water (pools, dog bowls, puddles, etc!) Over the weekend Logan went to Lake Lanier Islands kiddie water area with his Grandma and Grandpa Harris and loved it. He even kisses my belly (baby Austin). I could go on and on like all moms can! He is just the light of my life. Brian is also doing well. He just finished painting Logan's bedroom. He has Austin's room to paint as well as our master and his man room. After that I think he will want to hang up his paint brushes for a long while! He is a great painter! I will post pics of Logan's room as soon as the curtains are hung. I am really proud of how our home is coming together. I want to be done decorating and painting all rooms as much as we can by the time school begins in August. Brian is also staying very busy at work. He was promoted again this time to oversee and run both restaurants - Duluth and Alpharetta. He has a lot of people to manage and even when he is at home his phone is ringing with people looking to him for answers. We recently joined Lifetime Fitness - which is more like a country club than a gym. Brian has set some fitness goals for himself and tries to get to the gym daily. Chasing after Logan is enough of a workout for me right now! Once Austin is born it will be great to have somewhere to go to get back into shape. I'll also have my mom who is becoming a personal trainer. She is going to be in a fitness show in July. We are so proud of Mimi and her accomplishments. She is in amazing shape for being a mother of 4 and a grandmother! Austin kicks and moves around a lot. I am just getting to the point of being uncomfortable at bedtime. I had forgotten how bad my back hurts when I am pregnant. It is all coming back to me now! The prize at the end is so worth it though! Brian and I were able to go to the movies on Sunday when Logan went to the water park with his grandparents. We had fun going to an early movie (which was 2 dollars cheaper since it was only 11:30) to see "WANTED." We ate candy and buttery popcorn and then I had a stomach when we got home - but it was worth it! We are looking forward to a HOT, fun July. Brian's b-day is Friday the fourth. We are going to kick off the weekend with a family birthday party on Thursday. Then go and watch fireworks at the park across the street. Friday is Brian's day - so whatever he wants to do we will do. Then we are headed up to the lake house my parents rented for the weekend to hang out and get some sun. I am sure I will have lots of pictures to post next week. Here is a few pictures of Logan I took over the weekend.
