There's a One Year Old In the House!!

Aaaahhh, one year is already gone! We are so blessed to have this little guy moving and grooving all over our house! It is so amazing to be able to look back

and see where we have come from

(absolutely love this pick...he is so squished in his seat it is amazing he could even breathe! The pediatrician told us that he was probably ok without all the extras in his seat...nice way of saying that these new parents are WAY overdoing it:)

to where we are now...this sweet little man has grown before our eyes and sometimes it is hard to see that growth. But, grow he has:) His one year highlights are:

*he is a sloppy kisser...he loves to open wide, stick out his tongue and give us a big wet one:)
*he is in to EVERYTHING!!! We have taken to closing doors and barricading entryways to try and contain him
*Those barricades aren't going to last too long...he has quickly learned to scale our best efforts at containment:)
*He will play with a ball allllllll day long...no need to drag out any other toys when a ball is near
*He is also playing catch with that ball or anything else he can get his hands on to throw
*He is standing on his own now... and to celebrate his birthday he decided to gift himself with taking his first first steps just 2 days ago! He is getting braver by the day:)
*7 teeth!
*Wy loves to shake his head 'no'....and is just realizing that his head can go up and down now too:)
*He still loves water....pools, bathtime, hoses. he literally will drop whatever he is playing with and crawl as fast as he can when he hears the bath tub running!!

God has given us such a special gift in Wyatt. His smiles light up our hearts and is a constant reminder of the great God we serve. THANK YOU GOD for our sweet gift in this precious little boy:)
