And the prize goes to... LOGAN!!!

Now don't freak by the title of this post, i did not enter him into some sort of cutesy baby beauty pageant, but if i did he would win of course.

Yesterday we went to our family reunion, held at Narracan Falls in Gippsland, nearly two hour drive from home.

As soon as we got there Peanut was the star! People who i did not know, but apparently i am related to in one way or another, kept coming up to me and telling how gorgeous Logan is - well derrrrr, i could have told them that!!! Some people an opinion on how he was dressed for the day;

"he should have a hat on"
"he does not need socks on with the weather today"
"clothes for babies these day look too grown up"
"that top does not match the pants he is wearing" but then he did chuck on the matching top ealier in the day

and my favourite comment, not clothes related;

"are you sure he is a boy? He looks too pretty to be a boy" WTF??? crazy relos!!!

So anyway, not long after we arrived the parental, the sister of g, 2 aunts and 2 uncles and a grandparental arrived and set up a picnic table. We had a scrummo lunch and as we finished eating were asked to gather round for announcements and awards. There was one award that we were there for in particular, the youngest!

The grandparental missed out on being the oldest by only a couple of months, but Logan was the youngest by far! And we were given a little trophy to commemorate this.

There are two sides of the family, the swamps and the hills, or as they are also referred to the John and Emma side (the swamps) and the Tom and Annie side (the hills). We are from the hills and though Logan is not he youngest on the hills side - he was the youngest there and that is all that matters. The winner of youngest on the swamps side was a little girl called Matilda who was born in December, so that means that Logan was actually the youngest there from both sides.

We were also awarded with the most generations there, seeing as we had my grandfather, parents, me and son - four generations present.

Previously my little group of the family have missed out on these awards - i missed getting youngest, a few years ago now, only by a couple of weeks - and now because of Logan, we walked away with two awards.

Logan - an award winning baby - an over achiever at five and a half weeks - and cute as a button to boot.
