Nursery fit for a girl

Although she'll be bunking with us for a bit...it's a nice to feeling to have her nursery mostly finished.  Still need to make the curtains and crib rail cover...but other than that I can assume that she'll be dreaming of butterflies...wow there's a lot!  And of course some of Wyatt's toys have made it in there while mommy works.


Here name will go over here...but you'll just have a to wait a few more days for that! :-)

What we've been up to...

We are at T- 9 days until we get to meet our sweet baby girl!  I figured that I'd better get some pics up to let you see a peek at what we've been up to since Wyatt's big 2nd birthday!:)

The school year ended and along with that, my time as Director at The Compass ended too.  It was a very bittersweet thing for me, as I have loved being a part of this ministry & the kids there.  But anticipating the arrival of our baby girl, we have a peace from the Lord that it was time for me to stay home with the kids.  What a blessing for me to have been able to take Wyatt along to The Compass, we are truly grateful that it worked out to do that.  But I am definitely looking forward to this next phase of my life as a stay-at-home mom!  It will definitely be a big change for me, not working and all, but we are so grateful that I am able to stay at home with our kids!

So...what have we been up to?  We took a camping trip to celebrate Memorial Day.  Super hot, but lots of fun!  I was definitely introduced to being the mother of a boy...I am pretty sure I have never seen Wyatt so dirty! 

Dirty boy!

We also took a trip to the zoo for Father's Day!  What a nice treat from mom and dad!



Love these guys!!!
Wyatt really enjoyed feeding the giraffe this year!
Wyatt also got to go to swim lessons this year!  It was a lot of fun for both of us!  It was really neat to see him progress and gain confidence!  He had a great time!  And now he LOVES jumping to us in the pool!




Wyatt has also decided that he must sleep with 4 animals now instead of two...so he usually carries them everywhere!  Cracks me up...here he is after waking up one morning...love the hair!


Wyatt has also been a big "help" as we get ready for the arrival of his baby sister...he seems excited now, so we'll see if that excitement hangs around once she gets here!  Here he is in the baby seat (I thought he'd get stuck!) and he also found a pacifier...silly boy!


And we celebrated the 4th!  Somehow I've survived this heat!:)


We've been having  such a great summer so far and I know it's going to get even better here in a week!  It has been so much fun to see Wyatt grow and change right in front of our eyes.  It seems like over night he went from putting a couple words together to being such a jabber box!  I love it!  Certainly makes our days very entertaining!  He also loves repeating everything!  I told him the other day that he has a "one track mind" and now he says it all the time!  He even used it in the right context the other day...haha.  Loving this kid and looking forward to loving our baby girl!
