Crying Boys

We have had a few rougher days. Aidan has been running a low grade fever and is cranky. Logan is a purple sweaty baby. Some days are good, some are bad, different times of the day he just starts to scream in pain and turn purple and starts to sweat from the effort of screaming. With two crying boys it has been strenuous. However, Aidan is doing better, he had some fun cooking. The pacifier is the only way to help keep him calm while he feels pooey and then Carrie can tend to Logan and try to figure out what is bothering him. We are hoping to catch on to what's going on with Logan. In the meantime here are some pictures of the nice times in the midst of the frustration.

The Rogers' Boys Around the House

Carrie is doing very well with the boys. This morning however while changing Logan's diaper she heard Aidan cause a commotion. The picture below shows what she found. Here a few pics of Logan snoozing while Mr. Aidan finds trouble.

2 weeks old!!

Today we had Logan's 4th doctors visit since we left the hospital. He has grown to 20 inches in length (25%), 6.1 lbs (5%) and a head circumference of 14 inches (25%). He is growing well and now we can wait a whole two weeks for his one month weight check. Typically our pediatrician's office does a 4 day, two week and two month appointments. Our little tiny one is high maintenance!! Logan is having some Reflux pain and issues. He finds it most comfortable to sleep in a swing. We have one in our bedroom now and borrowed a friends for downstairs. Better to sleep in a swing than scream in pain or puke on yourself!!

First week home..

Here we are ten days after Logan's birth!! It is crazy how time flies! We had a nice Easter and were exhausted when it was all said and done. We have had A LOT of visitors to come meet our newest member. Thank you for everyone who stopped by!! Logan has had a lot of visits with the pediatrician. We came home on Wednesday, thanks to Logan's doctor. Carrie's doctors said she was a prime candidate to head home and that it was up to the pediatrician to let Logan be discharged. He was only down to 5 lbs and his doc said we just needed to come in for a weight check on Thursday. By Thursday he was down to 4 lb 12 oz, he gave us some tips on helping him put on weight and we had to come in on Monday. By Monday he was 5 lb 2 oz and we needed to come back on Wednesday to make sure he was still gaining. We were hoping he would be at least 5lb 3 oz and Carrie's guess was 5lb 5 oz, he was 5 lb 6 oz!! We were so happy!! He still looks super tiny but seems to have grown more in length. We need to take the time to measure him. We have TONS of pictures and will hopefully get them up here shortly. Aidan is doing very well being a big brother. He likes Logan most of the time. :-) We're hoping to get some pictures of the four of us this weekend. Check for an update then!!

Size Comparison

Alright...here are the boys side by side..diapers only...Aidan is GIANT, Logan is Super Skinny and TINY!!

All About Logan...

OK , the Easter pictures we have totally lacked Logan Joseph. Here are pics where Logan is the center. In the one Aidan was not so sure about Carrie putting the baby's cheek so close to his. :-)

Easter

We bypassed church this morning as we are unsure of Logan's schedule. Aidan woke up to find that the Easter Bunny did visit our home. He enjoyed Jelly Beans and M &M's before breakfast. He then spread his Easter Grass over the house and stashed a few necessities in his stroller (borrowed from the neighbors) and walked them around the house. We then headed to Carrie's Grandparents for their traditional Easter meal and Easter Egg Hung (Carrie has recently retired from the Egg Hiding and Cousin Sam has taken over. :-) ) We're missing Egg Hunt pics and must get them from Carrie's Sister. Oh yes...we dyed a few eggs too.
