Cold, Cold, go away...

Was it really just last Saturday that we were at the park having fun and today it is ridiculously freezing cold. We are definitely ready for summertime in the Dedwylder house. Ready for trips to the lake, the zoo, and endless trips to the park. Here are pictures from last weekend.

They grow up so fast!

It seems like in a matter of days Wyatt was holding his bottle, pulling up on everything, getting his first school boo-boo, and saying all kinds of new sounds. I'm afraid the next time I blink he's going to be in Kindergarten! However, he will need some teeth before Kindergarten and he still doesn't have any yet. He still has that precious gummy smile and I love it!!! Hope the teeth take their time and I can hold onto my "baby" that much longer! This song says it all.

I don't know what it is with the socks but this is usually where they end up.

Our precious, precious son! We love you soooo much!

So Maybe I'm not the Country Girl I thought I was.

It was such a beautiful day today and while Wyatt was napping I washed my car and then wanted to plant my hydrangeas (my favorite flower). When I went to pick up the bag of soil (that I just bought yesterday and set on the ground last night) this is what I saw.....Keep in mind David was not home! He was showing a house all the way in Keller.

I jumped back and freaked out.
Just for the record...I DO NOT DO SNAKES!!!!!! I am insanely afraid of them. I don't care if it's a grass snake or a bad snake. I don't like them. For something to be able to move so fast without legs/feet there is something very wrong with that animal. So I immediately called David who did NOT answer his phone. Then I grabbed my camera and started taking pictures. Not sure why other than blogging about it. So I finally got ahold of David and he said don't touch it and I'll be there in 15 minutes. "Dont't touch it"...Did he know who he was talking to. I didn't take my eyes off that thing. It stayed there for quite awhile and then it started to MOVE!!! And this is where it was moving too...

INSIDE MY HOUSE!!!! WHAT? Someone has got to do something fast. At this point I really started freaking out. After David's very loooonnnngggg investigation of what type of snake it was because he is every bit the country boy he then decided to get "rid" of the snake. (Swipe of the head and a big sigh of relief from me).

Now, I'm sure your laughing by now because in the second picture you really see how small the snake is. I DON'T CARE. I DON'T DO SNAKES!!!!! So....anyone want to buy a house in Mansfield. I think I'm a city girl by nature and a country girl when...well, on occasion.

My day did end on a happy note. We went out to eat with David's parents tonight and it was Wyatt's first time to sit in a highchair in a restaraunt. It happend to be exactly his naptime and I thought we were going to have to leave with a screaming baby. But he did amazing! As we were leaving I left with a feeling of amazement. I was overwhelmed with how my heart swelled with love for my husband and child. Can my life be any greater......Yes, get rid of all the snakes. J/K.

Look out world...here comes Wyatt!

Here's the proof of our crawlin critter :)

8 is sooooo great!

Wyatt turned 8 months old last Wednesday! We've had so much fun watching him grow. Here is why we think 8 is soooo great!:
1) He is officially crawling!!! I thought he was going to army crawl forever, but he finallly figured out how to use those things called knees. Pictures to follow later.
2) He gets sooo excited as soon as he sees his mommy or daddy. He makes jumping motions with his body and starts clapping his hands.
3) He claps at just about everything.
4) He loooovvveeeesss music. I think this boy was born to rock!
5) He loves to go outside. He starts jumping around in my arms as soon as he sees we're headed for the door.
6) He smiles and waves and claps when he's saying "Hi".
7) He gets so excited as soon as we walk in the door at The Sloan School. He usually sleeps on the way to school and doesn't wake up until I unbuckle him. Then 2 seconds later we're walking in the door and he starts jumping in my arms and smiling at everyone. Even parents he's never met before as we're walking down the hall.
8) He now has 2 smiles. A normal smile and a wrinkle nose smile. Pictures to follow.
I'm kind of slacking on pictures but we've been real busy. Wyatt is sick again and he is so miserable. His poor nose looks like Rudolph. The doctor said the first 2 years would be rough and boy was she right. Come on 2!
