The International NEF

Well, he hasn't traveled yet, but he's ready! This is one of the photos we've received of Logan over the past month, and it's our favorite! My dad found the moses style baby basket while on his service trip to the Dominican Republic, but Logan was already too big for it at 8 lbs! He doesn't seem to mind, though. He looks fast asleep and cozy. The onesie is a gift I sent, a cute little Petit Bateau piece from Spoiled Rotten, the store I worked at when we first moved to Portland. I can't wait to shower him with all of my other goodies I have piled up in anticipation for our upcoming trip to Illinois. I have to say that it is bizarre he exists so far away and I haven't met him yet. When my mom phoned the afternoon he was born and I heard him fussing in the background as the nurses cleaned him, and she told me his name...I just wept. It was one of those rare moments of pure joy and sadness wrapped up together. I have many conflicted feelings about living out here in the Pacific Northwest with so many loved ones far away. But that's for another post...

For now, I'm so excited to hold him and whisper hello! I hope you enjoy this photo. It cracks us up. Look at that hair!!! So cute. I hope to have more photos of Lil Logan soon...Don't miss him rockin' his tub in the right column! ;-)
