Catching up...

It seems like every other post I'm posting about catching up. Wyatt has been keeping us real busy. Here's what we've been up to.
Here's Wyatt having a good time with his Aunt Lindsay on St. Patty's day.

This weekend he and his daddy got haircuts. This is the before pic...

And this is after. It's hard to tell but it's the Caesar cut. He didn't cry at all this time. Such a big boy!


Looking so handsome with his new haircut.



Last weekend the weather was so beautiful (unlike this weekend) and we took full advantage of it.
Here's Nana giving Wyatt a wagon ride. He had a blast.




And then he played a little soccer. Look at that focus and drive on his face. He's definetly our little athlete.


Had to post this picture. Just love it!



Here he is helping Momma with his own gardening tools.

A Beautiful Day...






As soon as we realized how pretty today was going to be we took off for the park. Wyatt absolutely LOVES to be outside. As soon as he saw the park from inside the car he was beside himself. Really! He was going CRAZY in his car seat. I think his favorite part was sliding down the slide with his Daddy. As I'm listening to this week's forecast (snow again!) I am so glad we took the opportunity for some outside play time!

Our very own winter wonderland....

Although I really don't like being out here in the middle of nowhere, it is VERY beautiful when covered with snow...

Our week in review...

This week has been a very busy/recuperating week for us. I started off the week with yet another sinus infection(3rd one in 6 weeks) but also had a upper resp. infection with it. Yuck. However, despite my illness and freezing weather I still went to Canton last Sunday to get Whitney's bedding. I'm one determined Momma. And I found the perfect bedding for her (see pic below). I can't wait to put her room together. While in Canton, I also bought her some adorable outfits. Can't wait till she's big enough to wear them.
Whitney's Bedding
Having a girl is going to be soooo much fun!
Wyatt started sleeping on a big boy nap mat at school. He does such a great job staying on the nap mat and sleeps for 2 hours. Such a big boy!


These last couple of months have been so fun watching Wyatt grow and learn new things. It seems like his vocabulary increases by 10 words every day. One of the things he's learned that we're not so fond of is his STUBBORNESS. I'm pretty sure if you look up stubborness in the dictionary you'll see a picture of him. He has it down to an art.
Example:
Wyatt is standing in his chair..
(Me/David) "Wyatt you need to sit down in your chair."
(Wyatt) Still standing on his chair staring you straight in the eye without blinking.
(Me/David) "Wyatt (said very sternly)"
(Wyatt) Still staring you straight in the eye, then with eyebrows moving up and lifts his mouth in the corner with this smirk of oh yeah, what are you going to do about it.
(Me/David) "If you don't sit down right now your going to time out"
(Wyatt) "No" then FINALLY sits down.
Whew! What a challenge. The fun we have ahead of us. Oh yeah, I think in the definition of stubborness it also says "excellent skill to have for a future strong, very successfull CEO of a multi-zillion dollar business some day."
On Thursday we went to my 20 Week OB appt. Everything is looking great! She's measuring right on track. She was extremely active during the ultrasound. It was so fun to watch. Despite her activeness she did give us some great pictures.
Her profile debut! So beautiful!
She is already her daddy's girl. She's doing the "Gig-Em" Sign!

Have you heard the news?...

You mean you didn't hear me shouting it from the roof tops or see it on the news. Does the picture give you a clue? YES! We're having a baby GIRL! I'm so excited about having a baby girl. David is a little nervous but very excited. Your next question may be do we have any names picked out? Well, sort of....right now we're going with Whitney Lee. I think Wyatt and Whitney sounds so adorable! We also found out some other wonderful news at the Dr appointment and that is that my placenta has already moved where it's supposed to be. That means I won't have any of the problems I had with Wyatt's pregnancy. I can not imagine being on bed rest right now and not being able to pick him up at all. If I don't post for awhile that's because I'm too busy shopping for Whitney! Watch out Canton here I come!

This is Wyatt with the Santa at Sloan School last year....

...and this is this year. I promise I'm not purposely torturing him with Santa. He was waving to Santa and got real close so I thought we had a shot at this one. No more Santa's, I promise!

Dear Santa...

...Wyatt would love a bubble machine. Ms Becky let the babies use her bubble machine today and boy did they have a blast. Wyatt's hair was covered in bubble goop by the end of the day. Does he look like he's having fun or what. Thanks Ms. Becky!

Sorry Santa...

Well, we tried getting Wyatt's picture take again with Santa. This time we tried it at Bass Pro Shop. I thought this time it would take. David walked him around to see the train and the other kids getting their picture taken with Santa. Santa even looked up and waved at Wyatt and he waved back. So we thought maybe it will be ok. We were wrong. He wanted nothing to do with Santa. Proof is in the picture. Thanks for being such a good sport Santa. Even though he didn't smile we will treasure these pictures for a lifetime.

At least we made things better by letting him play with a toy guy afterwards.

And ride on the carousel. Check out my new "do". I cut my hair back to short and love it!

Happy Thanksgiving

Hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving! Ours was wonderful. We had family over to our house this year and I cooked my first turkey (from a recipe from Barefoot Contessa) and it was awesome. I was very proud of myself. Wyatt had a blast playing with his cousin Michael. My sister and I were 2 of the crazy kazillion people that went to Grapevine Mills Mall Thanksgiving night at Midnight and....we'll never do it again! It's one of those been there done that, don't need to do it again. However, I did save ALOT of money on clothes for Wyatt. Everything in Tommy Hilfilger kids was 50% off and when you walked in they gave you a coupon for an additional 20% off. I racked up on clothes all the way to size 3t. Carter's also had everything 50% off in their store. Several other stores had 50%off but you had to wait in a line that wrapped around the store. I'm NOT doing that. Overall we had a wonderful holiday week and can't wait for Christmas! I don't have many pictures to post because I left that up to David. What was I thinking...Cowboys and Aggies playing on the same day! I did manage to get this adorable picture of Wyatt's cousin Michael pushing him on his car.

My Sweet Babies

We went to the doctor a couple of weeks ago for my pregnancy checkup and everything went great! Baby #2 is due June 23rd! That's right, 2 days before Wyatt's birthday! June will be a very busy month for us! We're so excited. This pregnancy is definetly different than with Wyatt. I have had a lot of nautiousness (thankgoodness nothing has actually happened) and I'm craving alot of sweets. Whataburger's cinnamon rolls are my fav right now! Other than that everything is going great.
Baby #2's debut!!!

Wyatt is just a ball of energy and we're having such a blast watching him grow up and develop quite the personality. Some of our favorite things he's doing is, he loves to be silly and make you laugh, he loves to give kisses, he LOVES to be outside no matter what the weather, he's talking up a storm, and he's super duper attached to momma right now (my favorite, but makes daddy a little jealous). Even though he's practically perfect there is one area he needs to work on....it's taking professional pictures (surprise, surprise). We had christmas pictures at school setup with a really pretty scene and he was in an adorable outfit and would have absolutely nothing to do with it. I was going to scan the proof's to show you but I can't find the proofs. When I find them I'll post them. Poor baby is screaming and will absolutely not sit down. I did order them. One day we'll look back when he's older and laugh. One week later I took him to Decorator's Warehouse to check out the fun christmas decos and to our surprise there was a Santa there. Wyatt was going to town on a candy cane so I thought great, I'll just put him in Santa's lap real fast and take some pics. Well, we definetly got some pics that are PRICELESS! Poor baby. I'm sure this a phase and before I know it he'll be too big to sit in Santa's lap.

Happy Halloween

Halloween was so fun this year. For school Wyatt was the tin man and I was the scarecrow from the Wizard of Oz. For trick or treating he went as a pumpkin. He had a BLAST trick or treating. We definetly have a party animal on our hands. We met up with his cousins and trick or treated on our way to the park that was having a festival and then trick or treated back to the house. We had so much fun, can't wait till next year (Hard to believe we'll have a 2 year old and 4 month old this time next year)!
Having fun swinging at the park.
Wyatt dressed as the tin man for school.




Dressed up with his cousings ready to go have some fun!



Cousin Emma showing him how to trick-or-treat.



Can you see the excitement on his face. He was totally digging the free candy thing.
