Daycare

About a month ago I started working at a daycare. The daycare is offered Renaissance Academy which I graduated from about a year ago. I absolutely love it! I get to work with so many great kids ranging ages from 6 weeks to five years old. Of course I get to bring my little man. When we first started he was terrified of the other kids. He was constantly whining whenever they even came near him. He had to adjust to the fact that I had to help other babies with their needs too. But surprisingly he did really well with that fact. Now he gets very excited when we get there. Every morning the first thing he does is crawl as fast as he can over to the bin of cars. He chases after the kids laughing and they all just love him. He loves to cuddle with a five year old named Leigh during movie time. We are still working out his nap schedule but other than that he loves to be there! I am working about 30 hours a week. I am so blessed to have found a job that allows me to be a mother first and foremost. Watching him grow and play is the greatest thing ever. I can't wait for Christmas where he can play with his cousins! He isn't scared of them anymore!

The only downside is the germs that follow working there!
He gets a bath everyday when he gets home.

Family Night

This week for family night we went to Riverwoods to see Santa! We wanted to make sure that Santa had enough time to get Wyatt exactly what he wants for Christmas. He was such a soft spoken sweet Santa. He asked Wyatt if he wants a race car or a shotgun for Christmas. No, Wyatt was not afraid of him. He simply looked at him with his big eyes as if it were anyone else.

Poor thing

Trick or Treating at Great Grandmas



We had so much fun on our first Halloween with our little guy. He was sick so he didn't get to go trick or treating. So we just visited family and put him to bed early. Mitch and I ended the night watching a stupid horror movie on Netflix and eating Wyatts candy. Happy Halloween!

Update on our Family

No we did not set this up, he did it on his own

Wyatt is eight months old!

He is crawling and pulling himself up onto furniture.

He is getting into EVERYTHING and keeping us on our toes!

We have been having a blast taking him places and seeing his cute reaction to new things! His favorite thing to do is watch Yo Gabba Gabba and eat applesauce. He loves sitting on his great grandmas lap and telling her stories. Of course that is her favorite thing too.

Mitchell is still currently working for my dad building frames. He really enjoys his job and learns new things almost everyday. He loves coming home at the end of the day and playing with Wyatt. He takes him to the park and also loves to wrestle with him. I have been drawing almost everyday and trying to find new things to keep myself busy. I am trying to be a better cook and pick up sewing. Which of course requires a lot of wasted time on pinterest trying to find new recipies to try out. I am currently making Mitchells Halloween costume which we are all so excited about!

To sum up everything, here are some cute videos! 



love is love

Happy Birthday Grandpa!

August

Here are some photos of Wyatt (and one of Ethan) from the past month!

He eats solid food now and here is proof of how much he is loving it

Wyatt fake cries now. It is pretty cute.

He rolls around and can push himself backwards. For a chuncky kid he is very mobile.
This is him rolled up in my laundry while I am trying to fold

not sure what this is

just like daddy

happy all the time

We got to babysit Ethan last week. We went to riverwoods and played
in the street fountain thing. He was soaked. So we put one of Mitchells
shirts on him to play with sidewalk chalk. He is so cute. We love Ethan

Cutest Cry and Cutest Laugh

The Dark Knight Rises

Rating: 5 Banes out of 8

Don't watch it unless you saw the other two. I was bored to death during the first half because I had no idea what was going on. Mind you the first half was a full movie length long. The second half was epic with some wonderful twists. Anne Hathaway gave Halle Berry a run for her money as catwoman. However not many people will agree with me on that. If you have to choose stick with the Dark Knight.

Shooting Star

Last night Mitchell and I were taking Wyatt on a walk late at night to help him fall asleep. He has been very sick with a fever. I looked up in the sky and saw a shooting star! Of course I had to make a wish. So I stood there and thought for a second. Mitchell asked me what I wished for. I said, "nothing". It is so cheesy and roll your eyes worthy. But I have everything I want. I didn't need to make a wish.

Now that is pretty awesome.

I love my niece and nephews!




(from left to right) ETHAN, WYATT, JADON, DELIA, ELLIOTT

 
It is amazing the love you can feel for your siblings kids. Jadon is the oldest. He is five. He is starting kindergarten this year and loves catching bugs! Delia is three! She is so beautiful and is very sweet to her little brother. Ethan is also three! If you spend even five minutes with him you will fall inlove. He is so happy and loves to do whatever Jadon is doing. Elliott is about two months old. He has a unique cry. He is just a baby that sleeps right now but I am sure he is going to be just as wonderful as his big sister. Thank you to my siblings for letting us be a part of there lives. They mean a lot to us!

I want I want I want



Why do we love Wyatt?

Is it because he has had a personality the moment he turned one month old?
Or is it because he gets uncontrollable giggles before bed time?

Maybe it is because he is ALWAYS smiling and ALWAYS happy to see everybody?
Maybe it is because he grabs Daddy's beard on purpose and thinks is is so funny?

Or is it because he love splashing Mommy when he is in the bath tub?
Is it because he loves to play and everything is a fun game to him?

All we know for very certain is we are the LUCKIEST parents alive to be the parents of him!

On Monday Night....
