Busy October!!

WEll, we were finally able to get our bathroom redone! Anyone who has been to our home and has had the privilege of using our lovely bathroom knows that it was long in coming! We left to head down to St. Louis to stay with my parents on a Thursday to Monday so the work could be done without us under foot. By the time Monday rolled around they still weren't completed, I stayed in St. L and Jonathan went back for the week because he had to work. While I was there Wyatt got loads of Grammy and Gramps time and we even made a trip to Branson to visit family down there!

(Gramps having a little early Halloween fun:)

It was so nice to be with family and to relax down there, however, there is just something so nice and comforting about being back in your own home and not living out of a suitcase anymore! We came home Sunday night....to a bathroom that STILL was not completed. By Wednesday we were all ready to move everything back into our mold-free bathroom!!!! Oh, happy day!!!

Also, Wy Wy is over 2 months old! We went to the doctor for his 2 month check up and shots and he was such a champ! He only cried for about 20 seconds after those shots and then he was fine! That was good for my Mommy-heart that I didn't have to comfort an hysterical baby. He now weighs 12 lbs 4 oz and is 25 in long! Such a long boy!! He is already wearing his 3-6 month clothes and fitting them perfectly! He isn't going to be a little baby much longer:( He is starting to smile a lot more and enteracting with us. So fun to go to his crib in the morning and see his sweet smile and know that he is glad to see us! He is sleeping through the night now, usually from 10 pm to 6 am!!! It is nice to have a full night's sleep. As you can see from the picture below he is starting his spit factory. He gets his little tongue going and then he has a ring of bubbles on his mouth! I sure hope that isn't a sign of teeth!



This next picture might just gross you out, however, this is another reason why October has been so busy! Jonny was playing football last Saturday and he happened to fall on a broken sign post!!!! Initially he didn't realize he had even cut his knee open until someone pointed it out to him! He took a little trip to the emergency room where they had to clean it out because they were playing in mud. He now has 15 stitches and has been resting it since then. He went to the doctor yesterday because we were concerned for infection, today he will go back again to see if it is any better. This year has been full of hospital visits and bills--his leg injury and blood clots at the beginning of the year and the many trips in and out for blood tests, the birth of Wyatt, and now this. However, God is so good to us because all of these things have not been too serious and He has continually supplied all our needs. We serve such an awesome God!!!
