The Way Home

One more picture from today that I missed... Wyatt insisted on having a snack on the way home from the museum. He took one bite of it and crashed. The funny part was that there was some chocolate on his granola bar, so by the time we got home his hands and carseat were covered in melted chocolate. I was to worried about getting it cleaned up before he rubbed it in his eyes to get a picture of it.

Children's Museum

We met Cousin Cole and Auntie Kimmer at the Seattle Children's Museum today. They were pretty funny to watch. This is how they walked around most of the time. The traveling exhibit was 'Sesame Street, Your Body.' The boys were so excited to sit on 'Sesame Street!'

The section on your digestion was a little odd...

First it showed you now you chew...


Then it showed the stomach working on the food..

The last part was really loud and Wyatt wouldn't do it. You pumped a lever and it actually showed poop going down a pipe and then after a LOUD fart you hear a toliet flush. It was funny to see everyones reaction. About half of the people thought it was hysterical the other half thought it was disgusting.














I think the drums were their favorite part.

Play Doh

Wyatt and made some play doh. I was surprised at how easy it was and it turned out really nice! Must be because I had the best helper.
Adding the food coloring
Trying it out...I have to say, this stuff is so much softer and easier to use than the real stuff. And Wyatt's preschool teacher gave me a tip...keep it in the fridge and it will last forever!

Goofball Part II

Our goofball!


Can anyone say CHEEKS!!!

Trains, Trains and More Trains

You know there is that list of things that you say you will never do as a parent, and lets all admit it that when you actually become a parent you can't find that list and you forget all about it anyways. One thing on my list was to never let toys take over my house. Well I surrender and realized that with two boys my living room is going to be GeoTrax Town for the next 5 to 10 years. And you know what, I don't mind one bit because Wyatt plays with it for hours every day. A couple days ago the entire family was in on building a new track.
Caden was so interested in watching all the trains going around.

And yep, even got his hands on a few.

I still am unsure who had more fun.


Sharing Day

Today was Wyatt's day to bring something to share with the class. After realizing he wanted to bring toys because he thought he was going to get to play all day with it at preschool, we finally read Wyatt his "Clifford's Show and Tell" book and convinced Wyatt to pick something besides a toy. He decided on his guitar and was SO excited.
The best part was it was my day to stay and help so I got to be there when he shared.

On the way to school Wyatt talked about what song he was going to sing for his class and what he was going to tell them. But we had a little stage fright when it was show time, so he just played a couple notes and answered Mrs. Pharris's questions.
While I was there I decided to get a couple pictures of Wyatt and his preschool friends. Here he is with all the girls on the tire swing! Sammy, the blond cutie, was my little buddy all day today. She even laid in my lap during both circle times. I think she would have come home with me if I would have asked.

While walking in from the playground, Wyatt announced to his class that he was going to be the caboose.

So brave!

Wyatt was so brave today! He got tubes in his ears and is already feeling much better.
The doctor said she was very glad we did tubes. When she got in there, there was quite a bit of fluid built up. So she was able to clean a lot of it out and thinks this will help end the never-ending ear infections. Here's Wyatt right after they gave him the "silly juice" (liquid sedation)
After about 10 minutes he was quite entertaining!


He thought he was SO funny. It was like watching a drunk 3 year old. :)


Everyone kept warning me that he would not be happy when he woke up, but he didn't cry or anything. And was even happier when he found out he got a Popsicle at 9 in the morning.

So exicted

Wyatt is always asking if he can play with Caden So when Caden was sitting and playing with his box Wyatt screamed like a girl and said, "Momma we can play together!" And they did for about 20 minutes.
Then he wanted to help feed him. I am not sure who had more fun with this.
Caden was squealing the entire time.



Open wide!

Never know where you will find him!

Wyatt seems to be into small places lately... He decided he needed to go for a ride in his mini wagon.
Then he and his garbage truck had to take a nap in the pantry. Guess that's a little more roomy than the cupboard.
Shuts the door and all...
(This is the same kid who cries hysterically if you forget to turn his nightlight on at bedtime!)
And what do you do with the empty tube when all the train tracks are out of it? You use it for your comfy conductors chair!



Collin and I both got pictures of this not realizing he had done it several times
***And in case you were wondering...yes Wyatt does live in his jammies. :)
He loves them and hey, it saves on laundry!!

Goofball

Looks like we have another goofball in the family... and the best part is, he saves it for when Daddy feeds him. :) But I think he gets encouraged a little. Here he is practicing his waving.
Last night he thought his high chair was quite tastey!

More waves

Tuckered out

I guess my long walks are tiring for everyone! I really love my BOB stroller, but have one complaint. Look how huge Wyatt looks. I have a feeling he is going to out grow it pretty soon.

Murphy Fun

P'pa, G'ma, Auntie M. and Ryan came for a visit on Sunday and Wyatt had so much fun sharing and showing off all his toys. He had to show everyone how good he is getting at writing his name
A little Wii~
You will notice Wyatt still falls for the 'special' contoller line :)


G'ma &P'pa with the three boys

This one cracked me up. Collin told everyone to make a sad face. I love how he caught some very good sad faces at the same time Caden gives us his best smile.

Getting three knuckleheads to smile and look the same way at the same time is not an easy task.
