belly buttons and broccoli.....

Lately, Wyatt has enjoyed entertaining us with stories that neither of us quite understand.  It usually sounds something like "unt, unt, aaaaah".  We still haven't figured out the significance of these words, but it must be important because he sure says them a lot!

Recently we were on vacation with my family in South Haven and stopped at a restaurant where most of the menu consisted of fried food.  So we opted for getting Wyatt some broccoli to go along with some fish.  I have given Wyatt broccoli plenty of times, but being a first time mom, I usually hack it into the tiniest pieces so he won't choke!  But I thought I'd see what he did if I just gave him the whole "tree".  Needless to say, it was a hit... 

I love his shrieks of delight when he gets something completely new or in a different way...like the "tree" or this morning with a strip of toast with PB and banana.  He is just so amazed by new things...LOVE it!



Wyatt also loves to put EVERYTHING in his mouth...like his little owl, Ollie.

And another fun little story about Wyatt...about a month ago, I was in the kitchen cleaning or something and Wyatt was playing in the pack-n-play.  By "playing" I mean, throwing every single toy out of the pack-n-play and waiting for me to put them back in again.  Well, I realized that he had gotten super quiet, which never happens.  So I thought something was wrong...  The picture below will show you what I found...



Wyatt discovers his belly button!  And is now COMPLETELY obsessed with it!



This is how I often find him now...he really will do this anywhere...shows strangers...if all else fails, just show 'em the belly button...





Family Reunion Part II

I was able to acquire a few more pictures from the reunion so I thought I'd make a part II.  Wyatt got to play a lot with his 2nd cousin Bryce, Lila's younger brother.  I think in the first couple pics they must be discussing who gets to play with what ball...

In these next couple they seem to be discussing how to work this car or who's going to drive it!

And making his daddy proud, driving a pedal tractor...well, being pushed on the pedal tractor...at least it's not green!:)

Family reunion

 Recently we attended my family's reunion and I thought I'd share some pics that others snapped of our cutie.

Wyatt really enjoyed walking around with a variety of family.  He really also enjoyed throwing the balls he found.  Doesn't he just look so tough?!:)

 He really ejoyed getting in and out of this little car too.

And of course the "kissing cousins" shot:)  Wyatt got a big smooch from his 2nd cousin Lila.  Oh boy...

The many faces of Wyatt.....

I realize it has been FOREVER since I have put up a post. I have these aspirations of being some incredible blog writer, but alas...it's pry not gonna happen! Lent me vent, if I may...I get too impatient waiting for pictures to load and then when they do, they're all out of order...help!:)

Also, thrown into the mix of our lives, was moving! What a wonderful blessing that we've been able to sell our house, crash at mom and dad's for a bit, and buy a new home that God dropped into our laps. After planning to build, we are SOOOO thankful that God opened our eyes to this opportunity instead!

Well, enough of my ranting and onto something a bit more entertaining:) Since you're all here for the pictures anyways:) Wyatt is now almost 15 months! Where does the time go?!?! I decided to post an assortment of Wyatt's "faces" since he makes a lot of them! This little man never ceases to crack us up...he is so much fun! Here are just a few of the faces he makes at us...Oh...and you may be wondering.....Why is he in his highchair in ALL of these pictures??? Well.....that's the only time he slows down enough for me to capture these hilarious looks! Enjoy!

Now isn't he just so stinkin' cute?!

Love it!

What a crazy face!!!!!! Can't believe I actually caught this one...

This one he started making recently.....he would do it all the time! To total strangers! HA! Crack me up... We've noticed that now he is doing it when we pray...hmmm. Pretty sure I don't make that face when I pray!

I'll be posting some more soon...I promise...yes, promise! Wyatt does too many silly things that I just have to share them! I also need to share some amazing pictures with you too...My friend Julie, that I used to work with, has gotten into photography and she recently snapped some INCREDIBLE shots of Wyatt...but I'll just send you to her site so you can see them:) Hope you enjoy! She did a great job!
