Family Reunion

So this year was Logans first Salinaz Reunion. The Salinaz side is my Grandma Medinas family. And well we have so much fun during this time. And I couldnt wait to introduce him to family. July 31, 2010!

So that morning we decided to dress Logan in his "formal friday" outfit. Just a little joke. He has a onesie that has a tie on it. And I just happen to put him in it on Fridays. So I mimiked it Formal Fridays.

Anyway...he wore this onesie and some Jean Shorts. Super cute. We pulled in to the park. And because we had so much crap to bring, we let Michelle get Logan out of his seat and take him to the pavillion while Eric and I unloaded the vehicle.

I hear OH MY GOD repeatedly as I am walking to the pavillion. And of course he is being passed around like crazy. And he is just laughing it up. Giving kisses and hugs to everyone and anyone.

I walk up and Aunt Lucy is crying. I said whats the matter? And of course after some prodding, she says that Aunt Joanie said "oh its our miracle baby". They all love Logan very very much. And everyone knows how hard we fought to have him. So it was just a sweet moment. Aunt Lucy is pretty sensitive to these things, so that was her reaction.

Immediately my Godmother Aunt Maggie comes up and asks if this is Logan. To which of course I say yes. And she tells me how beautiful he is. And Aunt Joanie says that besides her grand children that Logan is the most beautiful baby she has ever seen. haha Very sweet. Aunt Maggie and Uncle John are from Texas. And they visited us a couple times while I was pregnant. And Uncle John is a minister. And so they did a prayer for us at my mom and dads house when I was prego with logan. And I am sure they said many more throught my pregnancy, as did many others. To which we are so appreciative of.

Then of course all of my dads aunts begin to tell me how Logan looks just like my Dads Aunt and Uncles baby that passed when he was 1. They said he looks identical. Which was weird and interesting all the same.

All in all it was a great day. The guys went off and played horshoes and softball. And I believe I did not see Eric until 6pm. haha Logan was such a good boy. He just let anyone and everyone take him where they wanted.

He took a nap on aunt Jodi. I have about 2 minutes where I panicked. I couldnt see him, and was like um...where is my baby. But I found them sleeping in a lawn chair. And we had a great time.

After the reunion we all gathered at the bar for dinner. And then Eric and I cut the night short. He had to work on a Sunday. Because there was an oil spill in the Kalamazoo River. Eric has been needed a lot more for his work on maps. So he volunteered to go in on Sunday.

Therefore he would have to miss the golf outing on Sunday. And honestly this was a blessing, as Logan decided he needed me to hold him all night long to sleep. haha But honestly I love looking at his face. So we just had a really lazy Sunday.

Sunday August 1, 2010

Logan got his first bump....My niece Selicia thought he was strong enough to sit up by himself. And she let him go and he fell back and hit his head. I was kind of scared at first. But I didnt want to overreact and scare Selly or Logan. So I think I did well. And he was a little fussy for a minute. And then of course all was good.

We ended the night at Grandmas. Danny cooked some bbq chicken. And then off to sleep for the family.

Good weekend. Pics to come!
