10 Months, Happy Thanksgiving!



Wyatt turned 10 months old yesterday and hit several big milestones this month. The biggest one in our minds is that he is finally sleeping through the night at least that was until he started teething :). Milestone #2 we finally have our first tooth. His bottom tooth on the left popped through a little over a week ago and I think the other one on the bottom is very close to coming through as well. Milestone #3 he can now go from a laying down position to sitting up. He first figured this one out in his crib because I checked on him one morning and couldn’t believe that he was sitting up! I think this has delayed his crawling on his hands and knees a little since now anytime he’s on his stomach he just pushes himself into a sitting position but he did actually take a few steps crawling on his hands and knees today so he’s definitely close but still army crawls super fast all over right now. He’s also just started really pulling up on things and gets so proud of himself when he does it. Milestone #4 Wyatt is now eating mostly real food and he loves it!! I can’t believe how much this kid can eat and he just shovels it in his mouth just like Gavin. His poor tummy did have to adjust to his new diet a little bit and on top add teething to that and we had a fun week of him blowing out his diaper almost every day between the hours of 2 and 5 am. So glad that is done as it wasn’t very fun doing laundry every morning and having to give him some early morning baths.  Some other fun things, he loves to play peekaboo and will cover his face in his blanket and then when you say Where's Wyatt he will throw it down and smile and he's started giving high-fives and will do so-big like in the picture above.

We had a great thanksgiving and have so much to be thankful for this year. We were able to spend Thanksgiving day with my family at my Grandpa’s house and it was great to see everyone. My aunt/uncle and cousins from Colorado got to meet Wyatt for the first time and Gavin had a blast playing with Avrie and playing football with the big boys after dinner. On Friday we headed up to Minneapolis to see Ryan’s family. We had a great time up there and Gavin had a blast getting to play with Addy and Will and we loved getting to see Evelynn again. She has gotten so big and is seriously the happiest baby you will ever meet. We never seem to get to spend enough time up there. Headed home early this morning and thankfully both boys did really well in the car since it is such a long ride.

Enjoy the pictures from the past month. The last few are of the boys taking their first bath together and they had so much fun. Wyatt took a bath for the first time in the big tub in the hotel over the weekend and loved it. He was splashing all over the place and diving on his stomach and scotching around so we decided to put them in the tub together tonight and it got a little wild but they had fun.
