Living at Mimi and Pawpaw's

During the entire moving transition we were so blessed to be able to live with my parents. I certainly enjoyed being back at home and was so thankful that my parents let us stay with them. It was nice having extra sets of hands and someone to watch the kids while we got our new house ready.

 

I think Wyatt loved living with Mimi and Pawpaw!! Here he is chillin' in the sunroom with Callie.

Mimi was super sad when we moved out. Ha! We were spending our first night in our new house the Friday of the week we spent slaving in it. That morning I was about to leave after breakfast and asked Wyatt if he was excited to be spending the night in his new house. "WWHHHHATTTT?" Mimi asked. I said yah, we are staying at the house tonight. She.was.devasted. She said she was going to miss her babies and she probably has!

 

We thank you again and again for letting us live with you!!M

Doomsday

Well, we survived the Mayan Apocalypse. I'm happy we did. I mean, my baby daddy was out of town when it was scheduled to happen and fireballs falling from the sky just wouldn't seem right without my love by my side.

Ryan left Thursday for a work hunting trip. Wyatt and I went to stay at my parents because 1. I wasn't cooking supper. 2. I hate staying alone. and 3. I wasn't cooking supper.

We had a good time at Mimi and Pawpaw's.

Wyatt was lucky enough to share a bed with me. I don't know why this seemed like a good idea at the time because it is evident that Wyatt is not a very good bed sharer. I can't blame him though. I get confused as to which way to lay in a bed sometime too. Let's just say I got lots of head butts and jabs throughout the night. I even felt the need to tell Ryan...

 It surely felt like the end of the world being 33 weeks pregnant and being woke up every couple of hours and hearing Scout sing in ear nonstop. Wyatt is lucky I love him so much. We hung out there until noon, came home, napped, and then got around to go help my brother finish up shopping. What is it with men and waiting until the very last second to shop?? Oh wait. That's right. I haven't finished yet either... Moving on...

Last night I had dinner with my girls! Two hours of uninterrupted girl talk was just what I needed! I headed back to mom's afterward and was welcomed with some yummy Rice Krispy Treats. I'm telling you I have such an awesome mom. Wyatt did much better the second night sharing a bed with me. By better, I mean Scout kept quite and Wyatt actually kept his head near the top of the bed and his feet toward the bottom. We woke up and I made everyone pecan pancakes before heading back to bed for a couple hours. We came home about noon again and waited for Daddy's arrival. He didn't make it home until 5 and we were pretty excited to see him! He had such a good time hunting with guys from work and they ended up killing a lot of ducks.

 

I'm happy he had a good time, but I'm more happy that he is home with us!

 

Another picture we sent daddy while he was gone.

Wyatt saying cheese!

 

Ryan's passed out next to me while I'm watching The Wizard of Oz. It's a little after 9, but I feel the bed calling our name. A solid night's sleep is sounding pretty spectacular.

 

Santa Claus is coming soon. Can you believe that?! Yah, me either...

Christmas Night at Mimi & Pawpaw's

Christmas evening was spent at my parent's.

Wyatt got his first taste of "real" ham. Wouldn't you know he took a chunk of a bite. He is going to be a foodie just like his momma!

You didn't think we forgot about our little boy Marley did you? Santa even came to visit him and brought him lots of new babies!

The cutest thing Wyatt got was his little overalls. AGH...LOVE!

His Razorback pillow pet from Mimi and Pawpaw. He was getting so sleepy since he hadn't slept hardly at all that day.

We've had such a long day...we are definitely tired looking.

Him loves his Mimi!

And Uncle Jason.

Here is all of mom's children!

After we opened presents, put the baby to bed, we ended up playing Battle of the Sexes. Me, mom, and Misty ended up losing to the guys because apparently the girl questions were a million times easier. Pssh. Whatever. I did learn that my husband pays a lot more attention to celebrity gossip than I thought. I'm not sure whether to be concerned or happy. What do you think?!

This was such a great first Christmas with Wyatt. Next year we will have to do a little bit of tweaking. Hopefully we can do Christmas Eve Eve at Poppa's, Christmas Eve at Nana's, and Christmas with Mimi and Pawpaw. Two houses on one day was just too much. Wyatt was a little too grumpy so he wasn't near as fun as he could have been with Mimi. I guess you just figure it out though.

I hope you all had a wonderful CHRISTmas and that God has blessed your family in every way possible!
