7 Months!!!

Wyatt is 7 months old!!! Can't believe how fast the time is flying by, soon I will be planning his 1 year birthday. He is such a sweet and happy little boy! Each month he changes so much in his personality. It is almost like he wakes up a completely different baby but still him. He still loves his jumperoo and we are purchasing him a walker so hopefully he will enjoy that as well. He loves to roll all over the place, it is nice to see your little boy rolling around when he wouldn't lay on his stomach at all for the longest time. Now, he loves to be on his stomach and either watching TV or just hanging out. He even tries to drink his bottle while on his stomach but we don't let that happen. He loves to chew! He will chew on anything that is in front of him, even your nose! We haven't seen any teeth yet but his gums definitely look like there is something going on. Hopefully there will be a tooth or two breaking through soon. He is sitting up very well, he doesn't fall over unless he gets startled or playing with Tyson. We don't have a crawler yet, which I have been told is a good thing but I want to see him reaching those milestones. I think he will be crawling by 8 months. He is completely swing free!!! YAY! We stopped using it about the end of June for naps during the day and daycare has stopped as well. His teachers said he has been doing great and I am so happy since I was worried that he would depend on it for his daily naps. He is eating baby solid foods and loves anything with Bananas in it, Sweet Potatoes, Carrots, Green Beans and Mixed Veggies. Ryan started to give him Gerber Graduate Puffs this week and Wyatt isn't to sure about them but we are working on it. He drinks out of a sippy cup most times but loves to chew on the nipple more than anything. He drinks four 6oz bottles a day. He is sleeping from 7-7:30 p.m. to about 5:30a.m. He takes two naps a day on average but sometimes will take three short naps. They are never over an hour long. Other that that, he is doing great and we look forward to seeing what new things he does next month. Oh, he should be a little over 20lbs. We took him to the doctor two weeks ago and he was 19lbs. 14oz. I couldn't tell you how long he is, but he is long! He will not go back to the doctor until his 9 month check up, which should be in September right before our beach trip!!

My two loves!

These two below are my absolute happiness in life! I love watching these two together play and laugh back & forth. Wyatt is 100% a daddy's boy without a doubt. He lights up and gets so excited when daddy walks into the room. He loves to play with Ryan, he does love to play with mommy as well but he really likes to play rough with his daddy. Not, that Ryan plays really rough but alot rougher compared to just playing with toys on the floor with him..like I do. There are times when he wants to be snuggled and held and that is where he is a mommy's boy. I look forward to the years of watching these two together!

Yellow Ducky

I completely forgot that we had this yeallow duck tub that Wyatt recieved for Easter. He is definitely big enough for it now. Bath time has become more pleasant and fun these days. Wyatt disliked bath time and to be wet and naked. He gets upset most of the time when you change his diaper or clothes unless you are acting foolish while doing it, if it keeps him from crying then mommy and daddy will be fools!!

Our 4th of July Weekend!

This year was Wyatt's first 4th of July holiday and we did what we have been doing for the last three years....packed up the car and headed west to Oklahoma City. We visited my family and relaxed as much as we could. Wyatt got to meet his uncle Keith for the very first time. I was really happy that my grandmother finally got to hold and kiss on Wyatt. She was here for his arrival back in Decemeber but only saw him for a very short time and the next morning he was sent to the NICU. Of course, he was spoiled by my parents! Thank you mom and dad for everything and we can't wait to see you guys in a couple of months! We love you!!

Oklahoma City Zoo!!

We went to Oklahoma City over July 4th weekend to visit my parents along with my grandmother and brother Keith. My other brother Ken and his family drove as well from Georgia to visit all at the same time. On Friday we went to the zoo and it was one of the best zoo's I have ever been to. They had so many exhibits, an awesome "kids zoo zone" and any animal you can think of. We will for sure be visiting next summer when Wyatt can really enjoy and see the animals. I look forward to chasing him around the zoo and hear him tell me what animals we are looking at and make their "sounds"!!
