From the Mouth of Babes...

"Train up a child in the way he should go, even when he is old he will not depart from it."
Proverbs 22:6

We are trying Lord....give us wisdom and perseverance.

5 Months!


Our little man is 5 months and growing, growing, growing!! He is now 16 lbs 10oz and looks every bit of it too:) It is so cute to see those sweet chubby little cheeks and rolls on him!

Highlights:
*we are officially working on getting this kid to sleep through the night -- last night was our first attempt at letting him cry it out and he actually did really well!! Here's to hoping he learns fast:)
*he is no longer sleeping in a bassinet because he is such a mover and a shaker! hit feet sometimes ended up over the top of the bassinet...sooo, no more of that :)
*still taking about 3 naps a day
*He tried cereal for the first time and loved it! He would get so excited when he would see the spoon coming to his mouth!
*He is a rolling machine!! That is just how we "roll" around here:) We are having to be more vigilant about what toys Wyatt has out since his little bro likes to put EVERYTHING in his mouth and can now get there when he wants too!

He's Gone and Done It...

So our little man figured out that he can gain his sweet freedom by climbing out of his crib. NOT FUN!!! With having an almost 5 month old around too that can make for some bad nap and night night time!! We have to lay in the room with him until he falls asleep before we can leave!!

Hhhmmm..as I type this Wyatt is right now climbing out of his crib after just 45 minutes of nap time. So here is our solution to this little untimely problem.

It's like camping out every night!!:):)



2 YEARS

Two whole years have come and gone since this sweet little man came into our family.

Celebrating in style on the beach and with a super yummy donut cake!!
We even extended his birthday a little and let him open some more birthday presents when we go home from Florida...here he is enjoying some of his cool loot from his family:)
We have been so blessed by this little man. He is learning and growing everyday in such amazing and funny ways!! There are new words and sentences spoken each day. New experiences and memories made. God has been so good to us!! Children are certainly a blessing from the good Lord above!

Ft Walton Beach, Florida

Welcome to a condo on the beach, with a pool, sand, surf, and lots of fun!!!
My sister, Michelle, and her hubs Dennis and son Koby invited us along for a weeklong fun time hanging out and enjoying some quality family time together:)
Our boys had so much fun playing in the sand and waves together!
Tucky got to enjoy a little sand between his sweet piggies too!
Wyatt even celebrated his 2nd birthday in style:)
Our family had a great time visiting the ocean and just being together for a much needed and desired time for just family.
