When Logan was younger, I could not wait for the day that he would call me mommy. Now there are days I wish I could change my name. I hope I'm not the only mom like that. Every once in a while I just want a break from him and his incessant jabbering. Today is one of those days. I try to lay down for a nap and he comes into the room,
"Mommy! What you doing?"
"Logan, mommy's tired. She wants to go nigh nigh"
"No, mommy!!"
Then he comes over and pulls on my shirt trying to get me up and he won't leave me alone until I finally surrender. By this time the girls have woken up as well and Vince is forced to come up from the basement to help me out. This is just one of the instances today. Right now Logan is downstairs with daddy playing with his cars, but every so often he comes up to check on me, "Mommy, mommy? Mommy" and he continues until I respond.
Yesterday when I mentioned that Logan was such a good big brother, well, we had a little issue yesterday. We were all sitting on the couch with Vince holding Aimee on one side of the couch and me on the other side holding Anna. Logan was sitting on the floor playing with his toys and I was getting up to get Anna a bottle. I set Anna on the cushion between Vince and myself and Logan didn't like that. He got up and said, "No!" and pushed Anna's head to the side trying to push her off the couch. Vince grabbed a hold of Logan's arm before he could actually do any damage and I snatched Anna back into my arms. I have a feeling this is the first of many instances to come. I would post some pictures, but for some reason blogger isn't letting me upload any and I'm not sure if there is another way to post them or not.
Awww he is probably feeling a little left out with 2 new babies in the house. I would say try to set aside a little time each day JUST for Logan. Include him in as much as possible with the babies so he feels included. I used to have Gaige get the diapers/wipes when Owen was a baby. And even now I tell him he is such a big help with his little brother (pouring him cereal or helping him fix a toy). It's rough on a first born with a new baby comes in, but it's got to be twice as hard with 2. I'm sure it'll get better :)
