Logan has a passion for garbage trucks and often practices loading trash into his green toy garbage truck and then dumping it. Future sanitation worker in the making? We think so.

Logan has blond hair and he was holding a red bag of M&M's. He was wearing a green polo shirt and a very serious, brow-furrowed expression, as if he was about to partake in something very important that needed concentration.

He is 2 years old.
