9 years ago today my first baby boy came onto the scene!
I became a father of a bouncing baby boy and we had our package (one boy,one girl).
9 years ago today, Logan David Baumgartner was born!

I remember thinking forward to all the great times we would have as a father and son duo. All the camping trips. All the hunting trips. All of the fart and burping contests. All of the times learning about life, girls, and God (not necessarily in that order). I remember once again feeling completely inadequate to the task…totally freaked out!

And once again, I blinked and my baby boy is now 9 years old. I love him more today than on that first day (and I didn’t think that was possible). I love the young man that he is becoming. He has a heart of gold, compassion like I’ve never seen before, and a love for his family that I could only have dreamed and prayed for. I can’t wait for him to continue to grow and become a young man…the journey is just beginning!

Happy Birthday Logan!
I love you!

Now, some of my favorite Logan pictures…
