Enjoying the park

Last week, I got Wyatt out to Duncan park in Savannah to enjoy the pretty nice weather. At Daycare, they have taken the kids outside, but I have not played with him in the swings. They have these great baby swings and Wyatt loved it! I called Derek and he swung by on his way home. We both enjoyed hanging out in the park!
A good view of the ponds and golf course that are part of this park complex. That is one thing that Savannah has is great park/recreational facilities. Our old house in town was by another park with a pool and softball diamond. There is also a youth sports complex on the edge of town for football and baseball - but we are a few years away from those!
We tried the slide but Wyatt is not ready for it yet. The static electricity made Wyatt's hair stand up! Time for another haircut!

Pictures from Grandma's camera

Derek's Mom Terri had several good pictures of Wyatt on her camera from his stays at her house. He stayed overnight for the first time at Grandma and Grandpa Holt's house this Friday night while Derek and I took in Royals game (it was FREEZING!)
Playing with Tupperware on the kitchen floor.

Riding the giant caterpillar rocker in the living room. WEEEE!


More cooking accouterments, they make great toys!

Mmm, carrots.

We had a big birthday party for Derek's Dad (sitting), brother-in-law Jon, and cousin Clayton (red shirt) a couple weekends ago. All of their birthdays are the same day and we celebreate them together (note the Angus cattle on the cake).

9 months old!

Wyatt's first nine months have flown by (a lot faster than his 9 months in-utero.) He can stay standing if you place him by something he can hold on to. He tries really hard to pull himself up in his crib and in the tub. Derek's Mom and Derek both have witnessed him pulling himself all the way up - but I haven't.
Wyatt makes this funny face to get us laughing at him. This picture is the best one I have of all 5 of Wyatt's teeth, 3 on top and 2 on bottom. You have to look really close! :)

Derek already lowered his mattress so that he can't fall out if he does pull himself up to standing. He thinks it is great fun and rattles the crib railing.


We love bath time!

Wyatt was playing in his crib last weekend (it was about nap time) and he fell asleep like this. He did not get his limberness from his Mom.


I came home one day early this week and saw this bunny hopping around the yard. It is not albino but a domestic bunny (like the kind you buy at Orscheln's) that one of the neighbors set loose. I guess she had too many and set several loose and one has migrated across Hwy 71 to our house. If you look closely behind the gate, you can see the eye-glow of Booker the cat. He now routinely goes outside for some mousing fun. I think he thought he was going to drag home a rabbit this day, but that bunny is about as big as Booker! Booker stalked it for a while, and then got hungry and came inside.

random pictures...

I have been busy with FFA contests and stuff these past two weeks and Derek has been watching a lot of college basketball. So, I haven't taken many pictures. Still waiting for the weather to warm up and dry up.
Wyatt and I took a little walk out to the mailbox and down the road a bit one day when is was warm (but WINDY!) I tried to get the view westward from our mailbox - very nice!

I bought some Mr. Bubble for bath time and I think Derek and I enjoy it more than Wyatt. We usually put it on his head and face.


More bubbles!
