All Wyatt, All The Time

 This post seems to be mostly photos of Wyatt.  I guess that's because it's mostly him and I these days with the two older ones off at school.  I'm happy that I've had one on one time with each of them, since there was a good eight months of preschool for Jack before Wyatt joined our family that I could spend with just Ethan.  I sure do enjoy these boys, even if they run me ragged most days!
Wyatt is all about food these days -- if you've got it he wants to try it.  He may end up spitting it out but at least he'll give it a try.  Oh how I miss these days with the other two - they are so picky and Ethan has all but given up eating dinner altogether.  I know one day they will be teenage boys who will eat me out of house and home and I'll say, remember when...I guess as mother's we're always concerned with one thing or another.

 The dogs have gotten so much better with each child that has come into the home.  Stanley is the most tolerant, especially with Wyatt.  From the look on Amber's face, you can tell she's not quite the same.
 I couldn't resist this little gift for Jason when I saw it.
 Some days Wyatt just cracks me up.  Here he is "riding" Jason's stuffed hippo from when he was a child.  Wyatt was scooting around on this from room to room - it was so cute.

 Wyatt is such the little boy - always playing in the water and throwing rocks.  Here he enjoys the best of both and turning our birdbath into a red clay muddy mess (and himself in the process)!
 But I love to see him exploring and enjoying himself.
 We've had the tummy bug for about a week or so around here and Wyatt had really taken to banana's for awhile.  It took Jack until he was almost three before he would hold banana's the right way - someone tell Wyatt to stop trying to grow up so fast, I feel like I'm missing out on his being a baby/toddler.
 Recognize that smile?  He really is a mini-Jack!
 And such a big boy - insisting on sitting at the table and feeding himself.
I can't believe he isn't even two yet...not much longer but I feel like he's growing up too fast.
Love this little guy!

Having a Great Visit with Aunt Delly

I know it's been a VERY long time since I've last posted, but it's hard when you have company in town. Plus, I've been especially exhausted this past week. Jack get's so excited when we have visitors that he gets even crazier than normal! September should be fun when we have Daddy, Granny and Grandma in town. I've been continuously changing up our great room bookshelves, so I thought I would post a photo for you to see. If anyone has more ideas on how to make it look better, let me know. These are some pictures of Jack at gymnastics. He has gotten so much better at this club. They do a lot more strengthening stuff than the old place. Plus they have an older boys class so they don't just teach girly stuff at this age. It's been fun to see him do so well. Of course, a lot of time he still goofs around, trying to fall off stuff, but for the most part he's pretty good at staying on task. Last week they did the monkey bars and he LOVED it and was...

My Week

 Jason left last Saturday (the 4th) for his two week Army Annual Training and we sent him off with a nighttime treat before he left.  I love this photo of my boys, as they all look so happy and the small ones look so grown up - especially Ethan.  We couldn't pry that cup of frozen yogurt away from him!!  And, as usual, when Jason leaves all hell breaks loose.  Tuesday night we were all getting ready for bed and I was getting Ethan and Wyatt out of the bathtub when Wyatt slipped and banged his chin on the edge.  Normally Wyatt gets out first but this time I got Ethan and that just drove him crazy.  He was jumping up and down and as soon as I told him to stop he slipped.  I thought he had just cut his lip or his gums as I only saw blood but then he titled his head up and I saw his chin - too much of the inside of the chin.  I got him dried off, and kept a washcloth to his chin but knew I needed to get him to the ER.  But the last th...

Last Days of Summer Vacation

I'm back...it's been a crazy past few weeks but then what's new. We were dealing with tummy issues for the boys last week and after spending each cleaning up the messes all I could bring myself to do at night was lay on the couch! On top of that, I've been working out 3 days a week for an hour and a half at a time and that has been wearing me out. Oh, and I've started a new business selling Willow House so my free time has been limited. But I've been enjoying it and a happy mama makes for a happy family! Now we're enjoying our last day of summer vacation before Jack starts Pre-K tomorrow, which is the equivalent to what kindergarten was for me back in the day. Jack is excited to get back to school and see his friends and learn "big kid stuff," and I'm excited to get our routine started for the school year. Plus Daddy should be home on Thursday and that will help tremendously! I can't believe he's been gone almost two years. It wi...
