Growing some gills....

Wyatt loves the water! Every time we start a bath, get in a pool, or get near water he is excited! He kicks his feet and starts talking and is nothing but smiles. Here are a few pictures from our adventures in the water.








We are doing well! We are settling in Arizona. Wyatt is finally starting to feel more comfortable and I'm hoping that means he will start sleeping at night again. Yesterday he hit 5 months old. Where does the time go? He's getting really big. His eyes are starting to get darker--I'm a little sad about that. I really loved those baby blues! He's always smiling and has started to really find his voice. Today he just has been making noises to see what they sound like! I think he's going to be a lefty. He always reaches for things with his left hand, he jumps in his jumpers on his left foot, he always manages to get the left shoe off... Maybe he's taking after his Gpa Holt (a lefty).

Wyatt LOVES the johnny jumper and his little play center. He's not quite sitting up on his own yet, but he sure wants to! He's been very interested in things I drink, so I've let him start drinking from a cup. It's mostly messy, but he keeps wanting to try! For now, we are still nursing and that's it. I'm not quite ready to introduce foods yet, though he's ready and very intrigued by eating. It's just me that's not quite ready for my little boy to be big enough for that yet. Wyatt also loves playing with and talking to the dogs. Cory is always catching Wyatt's attention! He gets to play with his cousins most days and it's fun for all!

I'm doing pretty good. I have been staying incredibly busy. I've been very tired, so my list of accomplishments is pretty small. I think we've finally got my rooms settled down the hall. Now it's just a matter of getting everything put in a place and getting some pictures on the walls. I've seen a few friends, but have many more I want to connect with.
Eating at daddy's favorite restaurant... enjoying his favorite sandwich!

  1. oh...is that the Famous Sams BAR they got kicked out of with my 3 year old?!?! HAHA. NO, Wes did Love his sandwich that night...I never got to go.

    Glad you guys are having fun! I laughed when I read about Wyatt's shoes b/c my poor boys have NEVER had a shoe put on their foot. It gets too expensive to buy 2 of everything (Plus it's hot!) SO, they can have shoes when they walk--maybe. haha. Elliot always had cute little baby shoes. oh well.

    He's adorable! Keep up the good work. OH-proud of you for just nursing. That's all he needs. You're doing great. I did give in to food a little after 5 months with my boys in hopes of it making them sleep better. I don't think it did. :-)

    Okay, I'm writing a book. Guess I should have just sent an email!
