No front teeth and the sickies!

I forgot to post last week that Wyatt lost his other front tooth at school. He told me he was eating a cheese-it and it just fell out.

So he is now toothless in the front and it's so darn adorable!




Then the sickies, Zack is sick with a terrible cold. Plus on top of being sick he is also getting 4 molar teeth in. It's been fun here...not! I feel bad for him, I can't imagine the pain he has. We are keeping him covered with Motrin and Tylenol and it does help.

Here he is this morning playing with Wyatt's glasses




And just in case you are missing the Diva

Wy's new room...again

So Wyatt is a pack rat, he has to keep everything because he says he can always use it for something. For the most part we do let him keep a lot of things, and well, over the past 6 months or so he has kept a lot. It was to the point where there was a path to get into his room. Not good.

So today I decided to change that. I cleaned his room and moved some of the furniture. After 3 hours, 4 bags of trash and 1 box full of donation items we have this






These are 2 Little clay animals Wyatt made in art class. The one on the left is a squirrel and the one on the right is an owl

Wyatt's Being Wacky

It's spirit week at Wy's school and today is wacky day

So thanks for the ideas everyone, we went with this:





And just in case you are wondering.....


It looks like the wedding is still on! Notice all the "o's" at the bottom? Those are kisses Wyatt says, as in XOXOXO--no hugs for his future wife, just kisses. Lots of them :)

Best Buds?

For the most part Wyatt and Lucy don't get along. It's true, they fight and argue over anything and everything. But ever since Christmas we have noticed they have been playing together more and more and getting along.

We think they both are starting to realize how much fun they can have when they do play together and get along. We still get the random tattletale from them, but it's actually been kind of peaceful here.

For anyone that has been to my house that is quite odd lol



And then there is this picture, taken this morning before school, notice the look on Wy's face, he is actually mad because I asked Lucy to hold Zack and not him. Grrr..... I don't think I will ever win lol



And finally I want to wish my newphew a HUGE Happy First Birthday!!! Little E has come a long long way from being born early and spending his first month in the NICU, to now where is as cute as can be and is a happy fun loving 1 year old!

Happy First Birthday Little E!!!

Exciting news!

Folks I have exciting news to share, Mark and I are going to be
in-laws! That's right, Wyatt is engaged! He came home yesterday from school and announced the wonderful new to us.

The lucky gal's name is Alicia and she is in 2nd grade. Yep, Wyatt went for an older woman. He met her through his club. At recess Wyatt runs a club, I don't really know much more than that, but she asked to join and I guess the rest is history! He is very excited and can't wait to have her come here to meet us.

Gosh, it seems like yesterday I was sending him off to kindergarten and now this.....

Last night he even wrote her a note. He was nice enough to let me take a picture of it for you all to see.






How cute is he right? First love, how sweet!

Sledding fun!

It has finally gotten a littler warmer here, well, if you call 30 warm, but hey it works for us, so we got the kids bundled up and took them sledding in the backyard. We have a great hill that not too steep and prefect for them.

First Wyatt took Zack around the front yard, this was Zack's first time being out in the snow.





Then When Wyatt was taking him around a third time he fell out of the sled and he was done with that.





Wyatt got him to sit back in the sled and for a photo


And we attempted a group photo. This was the best of the 6 I took


We headed to the backyard so the older two could go sledding down the hill





Zack was content sitting on the ground watching them





Everyone had a great time!

Spaghetti

Sorry for the lack of updates. Mark is off of work due to a back injury he got while at work. So he was off all last week and is off all this week and next week. So we have been enjoying time with the kids at home and it's been a great relaxed atmosphere.

Tonight for dinner was spaghetti, Zack had never had it so we just had to give it to him.

As expected it was a messy result. A bath followed and he is running around with Wyatt and Lucy blowing off some energy before bedtime.

15 Month Checkup

Zack had his 15 month checkup this morning, he did great and he was happy to see his favorite doctor.

He weighed in at 32 pounds and is 35 inches long now. So far off the charts they don't even make one she said lol

We decided to put him on 2% milk instead of whole since he eats anything and everything and because of his size. He is a big boy, just not in the fat way.

He got 4 shots and is now napping :)

Happy New Year!

So it's 2010 now! Happy New Year! We hope you have a great upcoming year!

2010 brought some new things to us here, Wyatt lost another tooth and Lucy got a new haircut! Oh and Zack is as cute as ever lol

So here are pictures!





Zack must have had a rough night lol, as he fell asleep for his nap like this




Lucy's new haircut, we cut off 5 inches

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas! We hope you and your family had a great day!

The kids woke up at their usual time on Christmas morning, they were so excited to see all the presents under and around the tree. Everyone loved what they got and it was a great day!

What the kids liked the most was the fact that I "caught" Santa in the act of putting gifts out.



I made the photo using a site called Capture the Magic. You upload your own photo, then they have about 30 different Santa poses you can choose. So we told the kids that I left my camera out and it was on a timer so it took a picture of Santa as he showed up. They loved this and told everyone about it!








Helping Zack out, he really had no idea what was going on
