We were at Goodwill this weekend to look for an umbrella stroller and some other things. We were not there to shop for toys. However, Stirling saw this puppy as soon as we walked in the door and pulled it around the whole store the entire time we were there saying "here puppy, come on little puppy." At home he has been pretending to be a puppy, and has been pulling around a little toy on a string pretending that it is his puppy. I told him a few times that I wasn't going to buy him any toys today. And I meant it. But he was just so excited, so I decided to come up with a way for me to keep my word that I wasn't going to buy him a toy, but he could still get it- he could buy it. So when we got home, he paid me back the $2 for his new puppy! Here is a photo of Stirling and his first purchase!


Logan is getting so big. He is now eight months old and is starting to pull himself up on things. I even caught him up one stair yesterday, so we finally had to break out the baby gate. He can't quite crawl, but is scooting around on his tummy, though he may be like Stirling and decide to walk early.

He is eating up most of the pureed food that we give him and sometimes will gum a cracker or cookie. You can see his two bottom teeth in that big grin. He was so happy with himself for making this huge mess!

Logan is such a cutie!
