Cheese!

This is the face you get when the camera comes out and you say "Wyatt, say CHEESE!".  Makes me laugh every time :)

Easter

Finally...I found a little time to get our Easter pics uploaded and edited.  With the nicer weather moving in, Wyatt constantly wants to play outside and has decided he does not want to go to bed until the sun does.  This has been seriously cutting into my computer time :)  Anyways, here is the Easter recap....

All ready for his first Easter egg hunt  (Don't mind the vintage bucket...Mommy was a little forgetful that morning so we had to improvise with one we found at Pop's house.  It belonged to Mommy when she was little :)

Posing with his loot.  And by loot, I mean one egg and a sucker.  Luckily, he would have been happy with just the sucker :)

Coloring Easter eggs

Getting some help from Cousin Adam

The finished products.  Wyatt would say "wow" everytime we pulled an egg out of the coloring :)

Wyatt's Easter basket

Checking out his Easter basket goodies with Daddy

We spent Easter morning at my Grandparent's church with the whole Frye family, followed by a delicious meal cooked by Grandma.  Feeling very blessed this Easter!!

Baseball

Wyatt finally made it through an entire Indians game!  I don't think he sat down loinger than 5 minutes the whole game, but no major meltdowns still = success!  He got a baseball bat and learned a new word "swing".  It was only slightly embarrassing that he kept swinging the bat like it was a golf club :)  Guess we have some work to do this summer... 

Letters

The same child who has worried his mother for months over his lack of words, can suddenly identify and say (most of) his letters!  And I had no idea he could do this.  I have been so focused on getting him to say words, I have never worked on letters with him.  Which leads us to believe he learned this from an iphone app.  Not sure if that would be considered a parenting WIN or FAIL, but either way I will take it.  At least he is saying something :)
Disclaimer:  this video is not great.  he does not perform well when the camera is out, and is easily distracted.  but you get the idea...
 

HeartBreaker

Watch out girls!! ;-)

Little Monster

Before reading/looking at these pics, let me say a few things.  First, I realize Wyatt is wearing pajamas in alot of our recent pics.  Don't judge, it is winter and we haven't gotten out alot :)  Second, my house looks like a disaster in most all of these pics.  I think once you see them, there will not be a need for an explanation :)  Third, these pics were all taken within about a 1-hour period, maybe even less.  This kid can get into alot of trouble in no time at all!!  I think that about covers it.  Here is the little Wy monster...

He loves messing with the lazy susan in the kitchen.  Note the "child lock" that is working really well ;-)

And this is the kind of thing that happens shortly after...sprinkles (or whatever else he can get a hold of) all over the floor!

Climbing on the stove

Getting into the tv cabinet where the PS3 and Wii live

Pulling out the dvd's.  Note another child lock that is not exactly doing it's job ;-)

Playing with the computer.  Don't mind the missing keys...

18 months

So, this post has been in the works for way.too.long!!  I have been waiting for myself to upload and edit the few pics I have taken this year and finally got around to it...so here is the 18 month post (only 2 months late).

My baby boy is not quite a baby anymore! How did he get so big....and when will he start listening to me?! He had another good checkup with the doctor, besides the 2 shots of course. He continues to grow like crazy....

Height: 34 1/4 inches ( 90%)
Weight: 24 lbs 6 oz (30%)
He is wearing mostly 24 month clothes. It seems like I am constantly packing clothes away that he has outgrown, and it always makes me a little sad to see them packed away. 

Some things Wyatt is up to now:

- Taking one nap a day anywhere from 45 minutes-2 hours.  Likes to go to bed early, around 7 pm.  Not sure how a night owl like myself ended up with a child who hates to nap and loves to go to bed early!?

- Favorite food is any kind of fruit, especially grapes and blueberries and still loves chicken.  Will only eat veggies if they are dipped in ranch or hummus (he loves hummus too!)  Loves to dip all his foods!

-  Loves to play with any kind of ball, especially his new basketball hoop

-  Insists on watching his new DVD player anytime we are in the car, even if it is for 5 minutes :)

- Doing a little better with his words.  Picks up any phone, remote, baby monitor, etc, holds it up to his ear and says "hewwo".  So cute!  Other favorite words are "uh-oh", "dad", "hi", "eyes", "cheese","yah"

  - Climbing on everything!

-  Hates loud noises, they make him cry :(

-Loves to read books, dance, wear shoes and hats, play with our iphones, and get into everything!

Not sure what to think of his snow gear but he sure loved playing in the snow!  He cries when we come inside :(

Look at all those teeth (and the cute Colts hat)!!  4 on top, 4 on bottom, and some 2-year molars staring to poke through!

Loves tools and any chance to "help" Daddy and Mommy around the house!

Loves his paci and lovie dog, especially when he gets tired!  He looks so sweet here, I just love him!!
