January 31st 2011

Its hard to believe that January has come to and end and Wyatt is 2 1/2 months old. Sometimes I think that the days are flying by, but then others I cant believe it has only been 2 1/2 months that we have been spending with Wyatt.Our  life has definitely been  fulfilled with Wyatt around. I dont think I have ever smiled so much in  my life than I have in the last 2 1/2 months. His smile is so contagious. His face is covered with hundreds of kisses everyday. I have never played so much since I was a child. He is loved by everyone that surrounds him. Our families have become closer than ever with all of the visits. We thank God for such a wonderful, amazing, happy, and healthy baby boy. Patience pays off, and faith has fulfilled us. Praise the Lord!

Daddys week off, Mommy back to work!

Wyatt visited the doctor on Jan 17th and weighs 13 lbs 11 oz, 24 5/8 inches tall! He is in the 95 percentile for his weight and height! We told Wyatt that means that there is only 5 kids bigger than him (shhhh!) He really loves the crinkle paper on the bench at the doctors office, he ripped it in a few places, cause he was kicking it so hard! So, Daddy came home and gave Wyatt a bunch of tissue paper to lay on, and that is his new favorite thing! You should see him go to town on lying on the paper! Wyatt is still on a VERY good sleeping schedule from 800 pm to 6 am...keep our fingers and toes crossed! Eric was off all week with Wyatt while Mommy went back to work. The first week back went really well, I was able to be home by noon everyday! Daddy took a few good picutres of Wyatt- i like the one of him yawning! His girlfriend someday will love looking at him with no teeth ! Wyatt has started voice his opinion a little more.. today in church we had to get up for the first time because he was crying and tired. He has started to curl his lips and say "oooo" a little longer and with more fluctuation in his voice. It makes Mommy smile sooo much to hear his voice. I cant imagine what his first words will be someday. Everytime I find myself staring at him in awe, I just thank God for this precious gift that he has given Eric and me. Somedays I just cant believe that I am holding him in my arms. He brings such tears of joy to my eyes, and a humble heart.

Wyatt's Two Month Pictures

Wyatt and Mommy went to have pictures taken today! We had so much fun, as you can tell....three hours of fun to be exact! Whew! But, we have some good pictures to show off now! He is the cutest little stinker! Enjoy!

Mommys last week off work

Wyatt is still doing really well, sleeping from around 8 or 830 to 5 am, eating 6 oz, and kicking the bear and lion in his play gym to make them rattle. Daddy has been off the last two days and making Wyatt laugh and smile. Wyatt is becoming more vocal when you get really close to his face and talk to him. He visited Grandma/pa Grossarth for a few hours while Mommy and Daddy went to the gym. Dont know what we would do without them! Grandma Wright came over Tuesday night to eat dinner and make Wyatt smile. Cant wait to see what Wyatt weighs at the MD on Monday, but he is not looking forward to the shots,boo. Wyatt has started to make sounds that sound like "mama", even though we know he doesnt really know what he is talking about! Someday, but lets not rush it! Eric and I are enjoying every minute together with our baby boy.

Play Day

Whew! Wyatt did not want Mommy to have a afternoon nap today! Playtime ALL day long! We had fun though, as you can tell by all the smiles that I captured today.Wyatt has been eating his cereal from a spoon for the last three days now. Giving him a few teaspoons of rice cereal to help hold him over during the night. This week we visited mommys work to show him off, everyone commented on how perfect he is! We also visited Great Grandma Scott, and her doggie Molly was jealous when Wyatt was shaking his rattle all around. Wyatt is really holding onto the rattle and kicking his feet on his playmat. We went out to eat with Grandpa/ma Grossarth last night, then visited Great Grandma Grossarth for cookies. This is Mommy's last week off of work. Not very thrilled to have to leave my baby boy and focus my attention away from him. I love spending all my time with him kissing and squeezing and cuddling and rocking. This has been the best year ever with our new precious gift. Time to cherish every minute even more now.

Mr. Fix it

Daddy fixed the furnace today! We have heat again! Wyatt slept most of the day.  Daddy played the guitar and harmonica while Wyatt shook his rattle to the songs. They are trying to come up with a band name for when Wyatt grows up. Grandma Wright came over and stayed visited while Mommy and Daddy went to dinner for a date night. Grandma loves to rock you to sleep and cuddle.

Brrrr!!!

Our furnace quit working at noon today after we got home from church. Luckily Wyatt went to Grandpa and Grandma Grossarths today for a few hours while Mommy worked out and went to pick up some electric heaters from Grandma Wrights and the Hampels. When we got back home Mommy started the heaters and kicked off a fuse and the lights went out in the bedrooms! Whoopsy! Wyatt is scared of the dark, so Grandpa Grossarth had to come over to show Mommy how to get everything working properly again since Daddy was at work with the bad guys. After a nice warm bath we cuddled by the fireplace where it was nice and toasty. I will never let you get too chilly. I will always hold you close to my heart where it is nice and warm.
