The First Straw

Talk about a crazy week...it is flying by...a mirror of last week. Last Sunday, was Mother's Day and I can say that hearing my adorable son run into our bedroom with a smile on his face and saying "Hi, Mamma" was priceless to me. Ken really gives me Mother's Day everyday by getting up first to get Wyatt. A gift I get every day and I do not take it for granted. We went to a Mother's Day brunch at my brother-in-law's mother's house. We had a fabulous time! Then we came home for a short nap and then we were off to dinner at my parent's house. A day full of good food, family, laughter and fun.

Wyatt is changing everyday...he surprises me by what he can learn and how fast he can learn it and remember it. He is now using 2-words and just recently 3-words together at a time. Examples: Mama Choo-Choo, Cheese Pease (Please) Dada and I see Mama...etc. He will try to say anything we do so we now need to be careful because our lil' parrot is always listening. He has had a cold, but it is practically gone and it has made its way thru our house so we are all sleeping better. Our big news...Wyatt is now drinking out of a straw! (See photos below.) Many thanks to Grandma who gave it a try this week (12th) and he loves it! I have also been playing "chase" with him before putting him to bed and he loves it. I run with him following me and I hide and say boo when he rounds the corner...he squeals with laughter and says more. I think he may be the type that will like scary/horror movies and laugh at them. What would normal scare other little children makes him laugh hysterically.

Wyatt trying on his new sandles! He loves shoes.

He took to the straw right away this week. Loves how much drink you get out of it.

Wyatt has been very blessed lately with the generosity of his grandparents. Gigi and Papa brought him back a LOT of clothes from an adorable store in Florida...our summer blogs will be sporting the greatest outfits so stay tuned. Grandma and Pa also bought him his sandles (photos of him trying them on shown above) so they will be the perfect accessory to his new clothes. What a lucky little boy!

This week is Grandma's birthday! A very Happy Birthday to Wyatt's Grandma who we love and adore for ALL she does for us. Have a great week!
