New table and chairs!

Last week I went and bought Ben and Logan their very own table and chairs. I have long since gotten tired of fighting Logan in the highchair---he seems to keep asking me (if he really talked), "why do I have to sit in this when my big brother gets to sit in a regular chair?" So this mommy gave up that fight, broke down, and bought a kids table and chairs! They LOVE it. Logan (to my chagrin) still gets up and down at least 2 or 3 times during a meal, but he can do it safely, without risking major bodily (head) injury.

Learning our body parts...

Logan is at the age (nearly 16 mos), where he is learning all of his body parts. So far, he loves to show people his tummy and his hair, among many others. Another favorite thing that Logan loves to do is brush his teeth. So yesterday afternoon, I asked Logan to show me his teeth....and this is what he did!

Ben and I were rolling in laughter---which Logan thought was hilarious, so he kept doing it! I love this sweet baby so much---his humor is hilarious; his heart is big; and he is as sweet as he looks.

Friday Fun

It was drizzling rain and cool on Friday, so I took the boys to Dynamoze (an indoor playcenter). We all had a great time----Dynamoze is a favorite of both boys! Here are the boys getting ready to race!

The last few photos to share...

I wanted to share a few last Disney photos---I promise this will be the last blog posting on Disney! We just had so much fun, took so many pictures, and are still talking about our wonderful vacation! (In fact, Ben asks almost everyday if we can go back.)

Here are some pictures from Epcot's Character Spot. These pictures were taken on the coldest day, Marathon Day. Randy was absent from the pictures because he was freezing outside waiting for my parents to cross the finish line! I took the boys to get some pictures taken and to get out of the cold. This was Ben's first experience seeing the characters---it was magical.





One night, Randy and I took advantage of the "after hours" at the Magic Kingdom, while my parents put the kids to bed. (Thanks Mimi and Gran!) We met my cousin Michael, and his wife Courtney, out for a few roller coaster rides. We had a blast! Cinderella's castle looked beautiful all lit up with icicles---it truly looked like a magical winter wonderland. Beautiful.
Winnie the Pooh and Tigger too!

We looked for 3 days before we found Daisy Duck! She was the hardest character to find---Ben was SO excited to find her!

Complete family picture at Animal Kingdom.


I had this picture taken with the kids at Hollywood Studios (while Randy ran to get our FastPass for Toy Story Mania!).

Cute picture with Logan giving Buzz Lightyear a "high five". Logan was so good with the characters---they didn't scare him a bit!



On our last full day at Disney, Randy had to leave early to go back home for work-related reasons. So we took this picture in the front of Epcot without him. :-( Our last day was full of parks (we visited 3 out of 4 of them!)---and hitting all of our favorite rides, seeing the beautiful night parade at the Magic Kingdom, and the fireworks too. It was a full day---but a wonderful day!

All in all, we had a fantastic, magical vacation---and we can't wait to go again!

A few more from Disney!

One "tuckered" out little boy....(notice who/what he is sleeping on...)
A family shot at T-Rex Restaurant. Ben and Mommy in front of The Muppet 3D Show at Hollywood Studios.
Checking out Mater at Hollywood Studios.
The boys LOVED seeing Lightning McQueen and Mater. In fact, Logan got so excited he forgot to breathe (seriously). His face was turning colors and he was shaking with excitement. We had to pull him out of there---crying, of course!

The boys enjoying the "Honey, I Shrunk the Kids" playground.
