The Pumpkin Patch

We told Emily to get in with the pumpkins so we could get her picture and this is what she did. Huh?!?!

Then we tried to get Wyatt with the pumpkins and this is what he did...

Thinking about it....

And he is off...

Blazing a trail!

Mr. Serious

We could not get him to smile.

The sling shot

We won two gigantic pumpkins this year at the sling shot!

Look What Wyatt Can Do!!!

So it is official... Wyatt is a walker! At 11 months almost to the day. He started walking more than just a few steps over the Halloween weekend. It was really fun too because Nonie was visiting! It was so neat to see the difference in his strength and confidence from Thursday to Sunday. Now he is just motoring around all over the house. (Sigh!)

Mutton Bustin'

Every year at the fair they do this thing called "Mutton Bustin'" and kids 3-6 years old can enter a contest to see who can stay on the sheep the longest. I guess this is actually a big thing and there is a national championship and everything. Oh My! Well, Emily decided she wanted to give it a try this year and so here it is...

First Day of Kindergarten

Emily started full day kindergarten this fall. She is doing really well and is already starting to read!!! She seems to have really adjusted to the long day and is enjoying school very much. She of course has already made lots of friends and knows pretty much all of the adults and teachers in the building. It is so cute to watch her when I drop her off each morning, she always greets the principal and other staff that are waiting outside.

Emily's Song...

So we watched the Hannah Montana Movie the other night as a family (I know!!!) and ever since then Emily has been singing and telling us she is writing songs. So here is a sample....Notice her look over at her music sheet! Too cute!

Wyatt is now 9 months old!!! He has...

1. started to try to stand on his own

2. cut two more teeth

3. trying to walk behind little "pop car"

4. loves to do "SO BIG" and throw his hands up

5. can say hi, dada, night night, no, quack like a duck and uses a word with the right amount of syllables for Emily

6. loves to get your attention by using his "social" cough

***Here is a short video taken a few weeks ago of Wyatt trying to walk. Of course I missed the very beginning of it.

Do you want to see something crazy?!?!

On the left side of my blog there are 3-D ultrasound pictures of Wyatt. Compare them with the current posted pictures of Wyatt....you will be shocked.

6-7 Months....

Wyatt has....

1. learned to crawl... fast!
2. cut two teeth
3. learned to pull up to a stand...on everything!
4. gives kisses
5. jabbers up a storm
6. gotten two hair cuts
   

Discovered the shower

Playing at the play area at the mall

Mariner's Game
