10 Months Old

Wyatt turned 10 Months old yesterday. I can't believe he is already in double digits. It is sad and exciting to think that in 2 months my little baby with be 1.

He walked for the first time, unassisted and more than 3 steps on Sunday. Wanted a toy from his toy box and walked and got it.

My baby is growing so fast.

Our Mini Vacation to the N. GA Mountains

We had so much fun this past weekend. Adam, Wyatt and I went to the N. Ga mountains and did some shopping, sight seeing and had a lot of family time. It was so great. And since Adam works a lot it was nice to spend quality time with him without the phone or laptop stuck to him. Wyatt enjoyed being outside even though he had to stay bundled up. Here are some pics:

Wyatt's 1st Haircut

The top is before, middle is during and bottom is after. He was not very happy with getting it cut but he did a lot better than we expected. Thank you Grandma Becky!!! He looks more like a little man especially without the "party in the back".

Wyatt's 1st Snow

March 1, 2009 welcomed Wyatt's first snow. We got over 6 inches of whiteness. It was great. Except for our power going out on Sunday and being out until Tuesday evening. Plus we had no cable (which also meant no internet) until Thursday evening. But I still enjoyed the snow and I think that Wyatt did too.

9 Months Old Already

I can't believe that Wyatt is 9 months old today. It seems like just yesterday we were bringing home this tiny little man from the hospital. I just can't believe how fast this time has flown by.

A new little friend for Wyatt

William Asher D. was born on Saturday February 21 at 11:49 am to Jarrod and Kathryn. We are so excited for them. Adam and I were there when he was born. He looks just like his daddy. I am sure that he and Wyatt will be best friends. They are a little less than 9 months apart. This is just a wonderful time and such a blessing.

Walking

Well we have been trying to work with Wyatt on walking and it doesn't seem like he is all that interested. He will cruise the furniture, walk behind his push walker and walk if you hold his hands. He just isn't ready to be independent, I don't think. And I am actually relieved. I know that sounds horrible but I am just not ready to let go of my baby. He isn't even 9 months old yet and in many ways his baby ways have started to disappear. It is very sad. I wish I could hold him as a baby a little longer and keep his innocence from disappearing.

Taggies

This Taggie Blanket has been a saver. I want to thank Ashley for making it even though it was for a rival team (she is a Bama fan).
Wyatt loves this. He loves to chew on it, crawl with it and just sit and play with it.
I recommend taggies to anyone who has a newborn or infant.

Florida Family Visit

This past weekend we visited my family in Florida. We all had a blast. Wyatt really enjoyed playing with his cousins, Draven (9 months) and Kambria (2.5 years). He also enjoyed visiting his Yaya, PawPaw, Aunt Winnie, Uncle A, MawMaw, Uncle Riley and Aunt Texana. Above are some pics from the weekend.

Family

Some days family is what helps me make it through the day, knowing that when I get home my little man will squeal and try his best to sprint crawl to me and that my husband will be there to give me kisses and hear about my day. Other days I worry about making sure the little things are taken care of. I worry about whether or not Adam and Wyatt know that they are the two most important people in the world to me. I worry about my mom and dad knowing how much I respect and admire them for all they have done not just for me but for everyone. I wonder if I will be able to always be there for Adam and Wyatt. I should probably try to chillax and just soak in the love of my family.

My Baby

It is so sweet how when I come home for lunch Wyatt is always ready to see me and smiling from ear to ear. He will jump up and down while holding onto the chair until I pick him up or crawl to meet me almost at the door. It makes me feel so good. He always makes me feel better.

I love being a mom.

Walking, almost there

Last night Adam and I were playing with Wyatt in the living room and he started pushing his walker and rocking toy around. He doesn't want to "walk" in his walker, he prefers to push it. Adam and I agreed that we need to get him one of the push walkers. And on Friday, I will be going out to purchase this one:

If anyone has any experience with this one, please leave a comment and let me know.

Hopefully this new toy will help him to be able to walk. He is only 8 months I know, but he is so darn determined. My little baby is growing so fast.
