We had a little photo shoot with Chelsea last week and she got some adorable shots of Logan!! He was so good during it all...only a few poops and pees on me and Joe!! It's been so fun to watch him grow over the past 2 weeks, and I know it will only get better!! Thanks again Chels!!!











Kind of a picture overload, but it's too hard to only pick this many...I still have so many more that I could have posted!!! I've got such a cute boy!!!!!

Sweet Little Logan

I just wanted to share some more pics of our cute boy. He's been so much fun! I could just sit there all day and stare at him. He has been the biggest blessing in our lives already and it's only been a few days!! We experienced our first rough night with him when we brought him home...he did not like his bassinet!! We tried him in his bouncy chair last night and he did much better. Even with the lack of sleep I'm loving my every moment with him!!

Mohawk time!!!

I love this picture of him!!! Beautiful boy!


With his uncle Ryan.
Chillin' in the sun to help his jaundice.
He loves to hold his hands like this!
Little body in a big carseat!!
Lovin' with his daddy...doesn't get better than this!!

He's Finally Here!!!!!!!!!!!!

Logan Joseph Stephenson, November 8th, 2008, 9:53 AM, 6 lbs. 2 oz., 18 inches long. And absolutely perfect!!! He decided to join us exactly one month before his due date. It turns out that I not only have incompetent cervix, but we found out on Friday that I was in the beginning stages of pre-eclampsia. I was scheduled to be induced on the 10th...but he just couldn't wait that long! I started having contractions late Friday night but I just ignored them and thought they would go away. By 6 AM Saturday I was in major pain and the contractions were coming a lot closer together. We finally decided to go in to the hospital at about 7:30. They hooked me up to the monitors and checked me and I was dilated to an 8 , fully effaced, and my bag was bulging. It was time to have a baby!!!! We made a few quick phone calls to share the news, moved in to the delivery room and about 2 hours and a few pushes later he was here! It was an emotional and amazing day! As of now, we are still in the hospital. He had a slightly high billirubin level so he is spending his time under the lights. Other than a few low blood sugars he hasn't had any problems and we are planning on going home tomorrow morning. He's such a sweet baby...hardly even cries and loves to cuddle...my favorite part!! We love him so much and are so excited to finally have him here with us...for eternity!!




Hard to even describe...just PRECIOUS!!!! We love you baby boy!!!

Presenting...

Hannah as Hannah Montana...


It took a bit to get the costume together, but I think it ended up just right!! She was so excited all week to be able to wear the wig we found. We tried taking her to our wards trunk-or-treat, but it ended up taking too long so we headed over to Heather's neighborhood. She went out with Heather, Aaron, and the boys and Joe and I stayed back at the house to hand out the candy. Then Heather made some yummy chili for dinner. We had a really fun Halloween...now I can't believe it's already November...and I'll be a mom SOON!!!
