And before we knew it he was smearing his first birthday cake all over his face.
And then all of a sudden he was holding a big boy cup and celebrating his 2nd birthday in his Papaw's big Gym with all of our new Indiana friends. 
Logan, you are truly something special! You have a zest for life and a smile that lights up an entire room. Everyone can see your happiness in your eyes. I cannot wait to see what the next year of your life brings our family! I have a feeling it's gonna be lots of laughs if this video is a sign of things to come!
Bath time in the LePage home is probably one of the boys' favorite times. And since my brain is fried from my newly acquired Anatomy and Physiology class, I have no particular thoughts to say aloud. I feel as though I have been in a haze since last Tuesday. A haze filled with thoughts of protons, neutrons, the Table of Elements, what makes Hydrogen, covalent bonds, the four quadrants of the abdominal cavity, and where on earth the spleen is located....among so many other thoughts. sigh. My. Head. Hurts. And I have class again tonight....sigh. Oh, but don't get me too wrong: I am way excited about it. Really. I am. I cannot wait for it to all make sense and to understand it all. Watch out world, here comes Nurse Reagan! 
Yes, that's the look they boys get from their mama when she realizes just how much water the floor is full of. 
Then they both do that face and how can I be mad when I know how much fun they had getting the water from point A to point B?
Just look at this sweetness:
And this sweetness:
Yes, we have smugness too:
Here's some more:
And then there's Tarzan. Do you hear him roaring?
And it was his very first time to sled down a hill and let's just say....he LOVED it! Lukas, that is. Logan. Well, um, Logan didn't so much. Logan didn't even like putting on his snow gear. You won't see Logan in any of the following photos. He was an unhappy little boy and he ended up sitting in the car playing with his beloved Choo-Choos. It's just where he belonged today. Lukas? Well Lukas belonged on the hill! 
He really did have a blast. And never once complained about the frigid 15 degree weather or the wind that made it feel like 10 below zero! Again, welcome to Indiana Reagan. shiver.
I dunno. But it looks to me like he has pretty good form, huh? Or maybe it's good surfing form. Then we could go some where warm!
I'm just sayin'. That's all.
Sat the boys on the coffee table-slash-foot stool-slash-jungle gym. Do you think they would all look at me and smile at the same time? Noooooooo!
This was an almost got it. Aside from Logan's cookey left eye thing, Lukas' deer in the headlights look, and Micah's sippy cup. We almost had it here. Almost.
Then, big brother decides to grab little brother, just to see what happens.
Here, Micah decided enough was enough and slipped down off the coffee table-slash-foot stool-slash-jungle gym.
Then Logan decided he had had enough. And as you can see, this totally bummed out brother Lukas. 
Then, Lukas decided to lay down on the coffee table-slash-foot stool-slash-jungle gym. And Logan knew what should happen next:
Logan, strong boy, succeeded in pushing his big brother off the coffee table-slash-foot stool-slash-jungle gym. Micah thought this was neat, so he decided to come join the photo opp again. Or maybe he just wanted in on the pushing of Lukas off the coffee table-slash-foot stool-slash-jungle gym.... 
This one did come close though...except Lukas is missing.
Oh, here's Lukas. Doing what he does best, when he shoulda been in the above photo!
I don't blame ya dude. That is the most comfy spot on the blue couch. 
It was neat to watch Logan and Micah. Micah is 6 months older than Logan. In baby time that is a HUGE span. Last time we were all together (think August) Micah tended to play more with Lukas. But give Logan 3 months time and this time Micah and Logan were buds. Although Micah is still crazy about "Louie". Speaking of Micah - kids are SO impressionable. Just one example: After a day with all of us together and Micah hearing Lukas call Uncle Johnny, um, Uncle Johnny (aka Micah's daddy) Micah started calling his daddy "Uncle Johnny". So sweet! 
Both Lukas and Logan were crazy about the youngest LePage, Selah. 
She's just too sweet to not be crazy about! She has the best smile, it lights up the room. 
He'd do this to talk to her, to point to her, to kiss her (as seen in above picture) and to just look at her pretty face. Um, did you happen to notice the cookie? Never put it down in the literal sense. It sure went down his tummy okay.
Gammie kinda likes her too.
And Lukas whopped Papaw at some Memory. This is game face!
And it's totally safe to say that all three boys are crazy about trains. A post bath time Thomas movie was in order. All three sat still and quiet for at least 3 minutes! It was a precious 3 minutes though.
Cake and ice cream time! Um, did you notice the finger in the cake? Yeah, that's the birthday boy. Gettin' the goodies. 
Lukas has wanted to be a skeleton for Halloween since he watched The Karate Kid movie this past summer. And Logan, well Logan's costume was inspired by the bin full of Lukas's old stuff. 
The kids did have a lot of fun Saturday night. We went over to our neighbors house where we were treated to some good chili and great company. Then we all headed out to seek out the best candy. Logan was a bit withheld at first. Lukas, an old pro. After some encouragement and witnessing how all this really worked, Logan took off. He became shameless really. He'd push his way right through the group of kids already at the door being served their sweet treat. And he'd shove his hand up as high as he could and leave it there until that chocolate bar was placed in his little hand. Then he'd toddle over to where my loving husband and I were waiting, place his new treat in his basket and clap for himself. Then he'd run after the other kids. On to the next house, knowing full well what to expect. It was PRICELESS. And if I had a better camera, I could have captured it, but alas, my camera stinks at night time. So you will just have to use your imagination based on the above picture and imagine this green ball of fur toddling from door to door and reaching for the sugar. I promise. It. Was. Adorable.! And Lukas has already picked through the candy, determining what's his. 
SHE's in kind of a funky position. Her legs are stretched straight out above her. Kind of curled into a backward C. Her feet are pointing straight down over her head. Just for those of you who aren't experienced at reading ultrasound pictures. Ain't she a beauty!? We can't wait to meet her in March!
In the beginning they are orange and nice looking. In the end, they turn black and glow and have creepy looking faces. 
ooooohhhhhh.....aaaaahhhhh..... 
And Lukas had to not participate in this part because he nearly threw up when we showed him the inside of the pumpkin and made him touch it. See him in the background there? Looking away from the pumpkin? He's mentally telling himself over and over "to not throw up". Poor baby. Logan wasn't sure what to think either. He didn't go as far as Lukas did. Logan wouldn't even touch the stuff.
Lukas started to enjoy the whole 'pumpkin' idea when I handed him the marker and let him be the artist.
Then my loving husband got the great big, and I need to add, not sharp knife and got busy.
Everyone was waiting patiently. With baited breath. Then, the minor details.
And: TA DA!!
It was a fun family evening. The seeds are boiled in salt water and laying out to dry. Tonight they should be ready for roasting! I wonder if any of my boys are gonna enjoy those as much as I will?
