Belated Ainslie Christmas - Part 1 - Lovin on "Yogan"

From late January 12 to early January 17, the Ainslies were in town to celebrate a belated Christmas with us. As always, there were lots and lots of photos from a number of different cameras. We had get togethers at our place and spent time up at Mari's place too and also got to see the MN Stolls (Hugh, Lisa, and Heath). With such a daunting number of photos before me, I guess I will do my best to choose a few of my favorites and post them in separate blog entries in some way - maybe by subject matter? Yeah, I'll give that a shot and see how it goes. First subject ... Logan - aka "Lo," "Logo," "Logi," "Logos," and "Yogan" (Owen pronunciation).

Besides being the guy everyone wanted to meet and hold and cuddle (of course), Logan is proving to be substantially different than his big brother at the same age. Specifically, he is still trying to figure out sleeping! We knew we were lucky with how Owen established his own lengthy sleep routine, but it took Logan to show us just how lucky. That said, he is healthy and gaining weight fast (an eating machine). When he's caught up on his zzzzz's he is calm and alert and fun to be around (very much like Owen was at that age most of the time). When he is in a sleep debt ... ugh, he is one cranky little man! We're figuring him out though (what works and what doesn't) and he's getting stronger every day so the hope is he starts stringing together longer and longer sleeps in the next month or so.
