February.. A month of love and no bottles

Yes I do know it's January 30th but tuesday is February which also means Wyatt will be 11 months (on the 7th) CRAZY!?! yess I would say so! This also means our 1 year mark is fast approaching. We have shared tears and laughter and huge changes and through it all I tried to share as I could.. Mommy hood for the first year has been trying on my sanity and patience and put strain on relationships but it has also brought more smiles than I knew existed, more love than I thought was possible, and opened more possibilities than I thought were available. I haven't decided if I will continue the blog for another year or not.. Seeing as I have slacked this year with updates I guess I'll play it by ear.

Wyatt has been doing better at daycare! He had his first fire drill and pretty much slept through it lol which is an improvement seeing as he didn't sleep at all his first day there. This month brings a lot of changes we are "throwing out" (hiding in the cabinet) the bottle and all formula will be given in a sippy cup.. wish us luck haha. And eventually we will begin introducing whole milk and then after he is a year he gets all the good foods peanutbutter, eggs, honey, and strawberries yummmmyyy lol. He has also started walking with his dino-rider so that's exciting and before we know it he is going to not only be running things but running around lol. Speaking of the master calls but I will try to let ya'll know how this no bottle stunt goes haha.. next will be losing the paci :/ hahah

Daycare

Well it's unfortunately official Wyatt is now enrolled in daycare :( I don't know who hates it more me or him but it all around sucks not having him with me always :( but we are getting used to it he does better each day.. I love picking him up and to watch him light up and leap for me haha he is for sure the reason for my life I love him like crazy lol.. He also drives me a little crazy he is pulling himself up on absolutely everything including the side of the tub :/ NOT fun! But it is exciting for him pulling up on things that aren't as dangerous..He is also loving the stairs he books it to them to crawl up it's cute but lots of work and gasps lol. I still can't wrap my mind around how fast he has grown up.. he is about to be a year and becoming more of a toddler than a baby it's exciting and depressing at the same time because I know we'll never get this time back and it just keeps going away sooo quickly.. I finally put my battery in my camera so I have a few pictures that I will get around to uploading eventually as well but for now it's bed time :)

Goulash..a bit of everything







So I know I said I'd update more but things have been crazy busy and facebook is unfortunately just easier to get on :/ but with that being said I will try to fill it the last month for those of you who have stuck around :)

Christmas was great Wyatt loved playing with the paper while we wrapped presents but not so much after they had actual presents in them lol.. He did pretty well though got spoiled rotten haha and then took a good nap.. His top teeth have finally broken through I'm not sure if it's But things are going well in NY we found a daycare for him so that's good his uncle gage watched him today while I went for a job orientation and he did pretty good so I'm sure he will do fine in daycare but it still sucks having to leave him :( but I'm falling asleep as I type so I will try to get on here soon to keep the updates and adventures shared :)

New York!



We have officially moved to New York (not the city but outside of Albany!!) It's GORGEOUS here! The snow is amazing a little bit cold but so pretty and of course once I'm stuck in it and my toes are frozen I may have a different opinion but for now I LOVE it :) Wyatt is loving it too!! He is getting some good quality time with his Nana Deb and Papa Jerry :) and being spoiled rotten.. he also got to meet his Aunty Hannah for the first time too!!

He still hasn't gotten rid of the ear infections but is teething really bad so I'm hoping once the teeth come in his ears will clear up! He is scooting all over the place and pulling himself up whenever he gets a chance once he starts walking he will be hell on 2 feet lol. He is getting back on schedule the 2 day drive up here threw him off a bit and he's had some late nights but he gets used to things more each day :)

He went to get him first Christmas tree today :) it was neat you got to walk around and pick out a tree you like and then cut it down. We had fun!! It was a little cold walking through the snow but I kept him bundled up in his blanket so it didn't seem to bother him much he just kept looking around at the trees or looking at me to see what to think lol.

Fall is here!

I have been meaning to get on here and update for a while but every night after I put him to bed I'm too tired to think but finally I am updating.. I really feel like deleting facebook so I'd at least spend more time updating the blog plus I just hate fb.

Wyatt had his first halloween he was Batman (mommy's little superhero hahah) we went to visit my friends at UNC Charlotte for a costume birthday party and spent the weekend there. Wyatt had a good time and it was nice to have friends around again. We went to some cute little bakeries and of course I was in my glory loI dropped out of school but want to go back in January for the baking certificate but we'll see.. I use to be able to juggle school, work, and a life(friends, family, parties) but it's completely different when you have to take care of another person 24/7 it's really hard.. We came back Sunday (halloween day) and he wore his skeleton pjs and helped hand out candy that night.

He has been sick with ear infections this past month :( the pharmacy messed up his medicines so he never got better and now has strep throat and on his 4th week(10 days) of antibiotics so hopefully this will work and he will be all better.

He has been sitting up a lot better and is learning to get down without falling back or busting his head on the ground.. and his army crawl is turning into more of a crawl it's cute!! He is getting so big I can't believe it!!!! He will be a year in 4 months it's ridiculous although I am content with only having one kid I will miss the baby stage lol.

His dad and grandparents are coming next week for thanksgiving so that should be a lot of fun for him. I'm glad he isn't at the age to know a lot yet cause I'm still so uncomfortable about things and I really do hope he has a good relationship with them as well since they're his family too. It sucks being 12 hours away it's still so unreal sometimes cause I don't understand how the entire situation came to be.. Hopefully we will be closer soon though- it will be good for Wyatt to have both parents around and even though he will never have that "traditional" family I'm glad that his dad and I are friends so he will still always have both of us just at separate houses :).. I can't wait to see who he is going to be like. I know there are traits from both of us I'd want him to have and then ones I pray he doesn't have lol. He got hit with being stubborn from both sides though and is already stubborn as stubborn can be. People say a grandchild is a mothers revenge and well although I wasn't a bad kid in general when I acted up I went big lol so Wyatt will give me a run for my money I'm sure! And I know his daddy is no angel either lol. I am however in loveeeeee with his green eyes if he didn't get anything else from his dad those eyes would make up for it all hahah. I'm sure those eyes will get him out of a bunch of trouble with a sweet little smile I'm sure I'll melt lol.. I don't ever wanna be in the same room as him and his daddy when he wants something I can see it now "but mommm it's only a quad/dirtbike/mustang/etc" then they'll batt their green eyes and smile and I'll be sold! Imma have to sell my soul to the devil to be able to say no to those eyes haha.. Wyatt looks like his daddy more and more each day though. He has my cheeks and if he is sickly you can see it in his eyes and face like me when I'm sick but other than that all boy and all daddy lol.. Even people who don't know Wyatt's dad ask if he looks like his father haha but of course it's how it goes I do the work and daddy gets the credit for that sweet face of his haha.. I will probably be busy this next week to get things ready for thanksgiving and stuff but I will try to update about the visit and how Wyatt liked turkey :) as soon as I can.
