9 Months Already!

Wyatt is turning into such a little character! He is very much on the move these days and is so responsive to everything. He enjoys Gizmo and always has a smile when he sees him. He also gives a little shout out too. It sounds like he is trying to say cat but doesn't quite have the 'T' down yet. He crawls all over and pulls himself up on everything. I don't remember hearing that it would happen all at the same time. Here are a few favorites from the last month...


Peek-A-Boo with Gizmo...

Wyatt's baptism was on January 24th at Greenville Congregational Church where Ethan grew up attending. The best part about it was that Pastor Jones was the one that married us. Grandpa Duane carried Wyatt into the congregation after the baptism and he was certainly thinking that the clapping was for him and was quite the proud little guy. We celebrated Grandma Anita's birthday after with a fun lunch. All in all it was a great day!

Wyatt is super ticklish in the ribs. Baby laughter has to be one the best sounds on earth!

Funny face.... He likes to scrunch up his nose and always makes us laugh.

This is his newest trick - the wave. He has been quite full of it this month and non-stop moving! This is the little cart that Grandma Sherri got him for Christmas and he walks all over the house pushing it. He is a happy baby on the move!

Here are a few stats for 9 months:

• loves bananas, carrots, peas (haven't really found anything he doesn't like to eat but he does have some favorites)


• weighed 19 lbs. 2 oz. and was 27 3/4 inches tall at the last check up - height and weight are on the smaller side but the head is a little larger (77th percentile)


• HATES having his nose wiped - pure torture for the little guy


• has given his Daddy the shout out with 'DA' quite a few times but no Mommy yet


• loves being tossed, bounced, pushed around, or walking with his cart


• he sleeps great at night from about 8pm until 7am which is the best


• naps 2 or 3 times a day but is working on dropping the late afternoon one very soon


• enjoys bath time and kicks up a lot of water - can't wait to see what he does in the lake!


• all in all he is amazing and makes us so grateful to be his parents!
