Happy 3rd Birthday Wyatt!!

We celebrated Wyatt's 3rd birthday at the end of January and it's hard to even begin to explain how much he has changed over the past year.  He is still our sweet blond haired blue eyed boy but he is also so full of spunk that we barely know what to do with him some days.  He has the ability to nearly drive us crazy most days as we struggle to find the balance between allowing him to be a full of life little boy and yet not an out of control terror.  A year ago this little one was so quiet, just barely starting to express himself.  Today you can't keep him quiet and instead of focusing on acquisition of words we focus on the volume with which those words are usually used.  Wyatt gives absolutely the best and sweetest hugs and I love the moments in the day when I am able to see his tender heart with his Daddy or Grammy or Siblings.  When he isn't all wound up he truly has the sweetest spirit, concerned with the things that concern others and getting great enjoyment from making others happy.  These days there are few things better, after a long morning of battling it out over whatever behavior it is that particular day, than laying down next to this sweet boy and watching him fall into a peaceful rest or snuggling with him early in the morning while watching his favorite show, Curious George.  Wyatt though you wear your Mommy and Daddy out some days we love you more than you'll ever know.  You melt our heart and make us laugh and we love every part you!!!!

A big thumbs up to Uncle Robert for putting gel in his hair.

Auntie Amy and her girls ended up being here over Wyatt's birthday which was a lot of fun.  We all went to Chuck E Cheese to celebrate.

Don't forget about Cooper.  He's right in the mix these days too.
Oh the expressions you get when you ask toddlers to smile.
This year it was a tractor birthday for Wyatt.
Yay for birthdays, and tractors, and cake, and Cheetos.
This is the way we say thank you.

Such a big boy!
