Christmas morning

Our first Christmas in our new house!

 

Wyatt was excited to leave out cookies and milk for Santa and an apple for Rudolph.

Before bed, we had to read The Night Before Christmas. Hopefully Claire will be able to make it next year!

Claire is such an early bird...can't blame her as early as she goes to sleep. She got up at 6:30 and was up and back down before Wyatt even woke up so we didn't do Christmas until Claire woke up at 9:30 or so. Wyatt's gifts from Santa were out, but he could have cared less. Story of our lives.

Christmas at Nana's

 

Nana gave each family a bag filled with paper towels, toilet paper, dish soap, trash bags, and detergent. Wyatt knew exactly what the pods were and tried sneaking everyone's out of their bags. Needless to say our pods didn't last long at all!

Claire 11 months

Per your doctors appointment you weigh 20.8. You had a small respiratory infection so we are working on clearing that up and it seems your little cough is just about gone!

You wear 12-18 mo clothes, size 4 shoe, size 3 diaper. 

You have 4 teeth. 

You do the typical babbling, but your first word was mama since you say it with intent!

You are such a momma's girl. It wears on me most days, but for the most part I love having you cling to me!

You are a very, very picky eater. You take 4 bottles a day and LOVE Club mini crackers as well as go-gurt. I really wish you liked more foods, but I guess eventually you will come to realize how great food is. 

You have started to stand alone and are getting more brave every day. We will have a walker before we know it!

You are really starting to try and play with Wyatt and it is so cute!

You are a little diva at times, but that's just the girl in you. 

You take 2 naps a day. An hour one around 9/10 and then a two hour one at 1. Your bedtime is usually 6:30 and you sleep uninterrupted for 12 hours.

 

You are my little love and I cannot believe we are going to be celebrating your birthday next month!

Visiting Santa

It should come as no surprise that Claire hated Santa. She hardly lets Pop hold her. Definitely something we are hopefully going to get over soon. Wyatt enjoyed him though and asked for a football!

Claire 10 months

It seems impossible you are 10 months old (10.5 as I type this)! You are the sweetest little thing. 

At 10 months you...

-are in size 12 mo clothes, size 4 shoes, size 3 diaper

-have 4 teeth. Two bottom, two top (the ones next to your front teeth)

-don't care for table food. It stinks, but we are working through it

-have fits in which you do what have dubbed the baby seal. You lay

Christmas tree

Wyatt picked out the Christmas tree this year and he did such a good job! It was a little bigger than what I had anticipated, but it worked out beautifully. 

This is our Santa/handmade ornaments/Christmas card tree! I love it!

Wigs

Just for laughs!

Memphis

For my birthdays this year Haley and Erin joined me on a trip to see Justin Timberlake in Memphis. It was such a fun trip!! A girls overnight trip is now officially one of the must dos for us. 

Haley and I had a fun time letting Erin tease our hair. Go big or go home. 

The concert was such a blast! Dancing and singing for 3 hours is my type of fun!!

Slacker!! Got to get the posted in 2013 so here is thanksgiving in pictures!

Let me tell you about his best friend

Wyatt is a full blown daddy's boy. I mean, Ryan has to do everything with him. I pretty much get the evenings off because Ryan has to bathe and put him to bed. It's kinda nice! Haha! 

He wants nothing more than to spend his days with be daddy. It is the sweetest thing. I hope that Wyatt always wants to be his best friend!
