Well, it's been a little while, but we have
alot of great pictures to share with everyone! On Sunday, September, 27
th,
Kireta and I participated in our first Down syndrome event. It was a walk for Down syndrome in Denver's City Park, and it was an excellent first event! The turnout was awesome, with roughly 2000+ people and dozens of teams. Above is Team Logan along with Team Kyle & Hunter (Kyle & Hunter are identical twins who were born with Down syndrome. Their parents, Michelle & Kelly, came down to our home with more information about Down syndrome as well as organizations such as Mile High Down
Syndrome Association.) We had
alot of people supporting us, both at the walk, and via
Internet support as virtual walkers! Auntie Ash was instrumental in organizing
alot of her friends to show up, most of whom we met for the first time at the walk! And Brad & Lisa also rounded up
alot of friends, and together with Team Kyle & Hunter, we had a strong team!
This is a shot of my dad and brother, Tyler. It was a perfect day for the walk! We got there early, and setup tents and chairs. The walk itself was 1 or 2 miles, your choice. Afterwards,
Kireta & I got a chance to meet some really excellent people and families. We're really looking forward to future events!
Here's a great shot of Kyle & Hunter. Their dad & grandma are with them here.
Here's a shot of Michelle. She was great and took the time to introduce us to
alot of people.
Here's a shot of the Nye's.
Kireta took the time to make this bib for Logan.
Here's Auntie Ash with her friend, Rachael. Rachael's family was also a part of the walk by donating to
MHDSA and becoming "virtual walkers."

These are some shots from our quick visit back to Pittsburgh! This was Logan's first airplane ride, and he traveled like a champ! Above is Aunt Alex.
Here's
Grammie with the boys.
Logan got to meet Aunt Paula with cousins
Markee & Chris. Noah had a blast playing with the cousins!
Here's my little man! His head control is getting so much better! He continues to impress us!
We were extremely lucky that my Grandma and Aunt Cathy were in Pittsburgh for the weekend visiting Uncle Tim & Chris! Everyone made the trip up to
Sewickley and it was awesome to see everyone! This was also Aunt Cathy's first time meeting Noah as well, which made it extra special.
Here's Uncle Chris holding Logan.
Uncle Tim and Grandma look pleased to finally meet Logan.
Aunt Cathy's certainly happy! Logan's saying, "What's up?"
Our Little Logan doesn't look so little anymore... We're going to have to come up with a new nickname:)
Here's Uncle Mark.
Here's a great shot of
Kireta's family! From Left: Norman, Great Grandma-ma, and Pappy.

Nesie &
Cuz Christine. They're ecstatic about meeting Logan!
Pappy's so happy!
Great Grandma-ma is happy to finally hold her great grandson!
That's all for now! Thanks for taking the time to follow Logan!
Lil' Pumpkin Logan
Watch out for this Ninja!
Happy pumpkin boy and the stoic ninja. Logan is always smiling for pics, Noah is over it.
This update is mostly cute new photos of Logan. Everything seems pretty anti-climatic since undergoing open-heart surgery, but don't think we're complaining! He's up to 13 lbs for Halloween, and 24.5 inches long. He won't be going back to the cardiologist until January, and his checkups are going great. We're pleased to inform everyone that Logan is doing a tremendous job advancing in his physical therapy as well as cognitive skills. His physical therapist, Terra, is always extremely impressed by how well Logan is progressing. Logan can now hold his head up at a 90 degree angle when on his tummy, and is doing well at sitting when supported by his "boppy" pillow. He "tracks" very well with his eyes, and is acutely aware of noise and his surroundings. He certainly likes to smile alot, as evidenced by the above picture. Doesn't he look like a fake baby doll with his lips pursed for the fake bottle?
Here's the boppy pillow and one of Logan's new favorite toys. He loves things he can grasp, and I must say, he's quite strong! I personally can't wait to get him in the gym and start training for our future Special Olympics power-lifter:)
Here Logan just got done telling a corny joke, drum roll please...
Logan always enjoys his brother, Noah. Here's a great shot of them holding hands.
Look at this little stud!!! He's telling Mommy not to worry and to "hang loose."
Logan is always working on perfecting the cool kid smile. Next week we'll work on the zoolander face.
We've also started putting Logan in the exer-saucer. His feet can't quite hit the ground yet, but Noah makes sure he's doing just fine.
Logan is displaying his Herculean strength here and is starting to support his body with his arms. Next week he should be up for push ups.
