Holidays + Daddy and son pizza fun!

My sweet boy! I always feel like it's necessary to include a random picture of him not doing anything my posts, haha.

Pardon the mess in these next few pictures, the men were making a pizza... I was super hungry and made a sandwich. Mmm.. artichoke hearts.

It snowed around Thanksgiving for a few days, so my sister decided they should make a snow man.
He started to fall apart so they had to fix him, lol.

And of course there was turkey, along with creamed corn, mashed potatoes, sweet potatoes, green bean casserole, cranberry sauce, rolls, pecan pie, and apple crumble pie... I ate... a lot.

Mid November

It's been pretty cold and rainy outside, so as you would imagine, we spend a good amount of time indoors. This is how Wyatt kills time.

Watching kitty videos, he's memorized some of them, it's actually pretty cute.

Moving toys, furniture, and clothes from room to room, because it's just what a little man does, haha. He pushed his little activity table from the living room to the computer room, and finally ended his trip in our bedroom. He had to stop because one of the legs fell off!

Chilling out while I fold laundry...yeah I just thought he was making a cute face and had to post it, lol.

Long time no see.

Hello blog, I missed you... well not really. I guess I don't have much to say now a days.

Wyatt's getting too big for his own good. He will actually look at the camera and smile now, it's not terribly exciting, but he would never do it before, so it's exciting to me!

He has been very into play-doh. I have to play too, I'm scared that if I don't watch him, he will smash green and red globs into the carpet, and it doesn't sound like it will be very fun to clean. Here are some of my masterpieces. Wyatt thinks they're awesome, haha.

Pretty awesome huh?

Going to try to get back in the habit of posting again. Even if it's just to complain about how I hate being so far away from family, or that my neighborhood is really smelly.

Happy Birthday Wyatt!!

He's 2! Can you believe it? I feel like it's such an important milestone, but I know they all will be! We will be heading to the Dallas Aquarium tomorrow morning, Wyatt loves fish and animals in general and I'll be sure to take lots of pictures. Then we're headed to Amazing Jakes for the night. For now, I have one of him asleep. He's going to look back when he's older and think that he has a weird crazy mom that takes pictures of him while he's asleep. I hope I stop before he's 10, that would be kind of weird, haha.

I guess I've spoiled Wyatt...

Wyatt is getting his way a lot, and I think I let him because I don't want to deal with the breakdowns or whatever. I'm going to fix him. I've been reading this article and trying to be better about not letting him always get his way. I'm probably totally lying, but I hope not.

Well, truth be told, Blake is the one that thinks Wyatt is terribly spoiled. I still think we have a pretty good give and take system going on, but I can see why he says that. A lot of times, he wants something I'm using and I'll let him play with it, whether it be my computer or phone, but usually I can ask him to give it back to me and he's totally fine with that (unless he's tired, and I know that's a bad excuse to let him get what he wants). I don't make it a habit to buy him stuff whenever I go to the store, but I will let him play with something to keep him preoccupied while we are there, and we put it back before we leave. I don't know. The only reason I'm doing this is because I don't want there to be any bad repercussions later on in life because I didn't teach him the "you can't always get what you want" lesson while he's young.

Oh, we bought Bat Bat a name tag yesterday, it's very costume-y and I love it! I think it's very cute on her. It's her first one ever, now Kitten's seems out of style, haha.

Fort Sam Houston

My little monkeys are asleep. Blogger is terrible for reducing the quality of pictures :( I actually uploaded all of these to flickr just to see the difference compression on this site makes.

I took these on three different cameras, one of which is my phone so they're all different look, haha. It's kind of weird, the ones taken on the iPhone look great on the phone, but not so much on the computer, well actually it's not that weird, but still... I wasn't able to take very many at the actual graduation because of Wyatt, and lighting issues. I guess it doesn't matter because Blake wasn't allowed to walk with everyone anyway, haha.

I thought this dummy was hilarious, it's nose is bleeding, missing bits of his teeth, bleeding everywhere....

This is at the graduation, there was a lady there with a DSLR using her on board flash. Her pics turned out black every time of course... I don't know why she would waste that kind of money on a camera and try to learn how to use it at a semi important event, lol. It was kind of funny because every time she took a picture, she would make a very puzzled face.

Random: July 4 fun makeup, lol.

Cute video, Blake and Wyatt reunion.

A beautiful ending...

This afternoon was kind of depressing. It was just really cloudy and rainy. I missed the sunset because I wasn't paying attention at all. While I was playing with Wyatt, I got a glance out the window and this is what I saw. I thought it was beautiful! The window wasn't clean, but I decided to take a picture anyway. Then I cleaned it off and took a picture on my iPhone, which I love by the way! The screen is remarkable, so crisp and clear, my goodness. Everything but the reception loss is amazing. I'll probably eventually get a case to fix reception issue. I just don't think getting something shipped from China is the best idea at the moment, and I'm not paying $30 for a case, haha.

This is the picture from my iPhone, several minutes after the first one. Not bad, a little noisy once zoomed in.

My very cool kid...

He's so funny, I keep telling him how cool he is with his glasses on, so he puts them on, but adjusts them so that they fall off his face. I love him so much and am so blessed to have such a sweet little guy.

I am having an issue though. He been waking up in the past few nights screaming and crying... everyone is telling me it's night terrors and all I can think is: great, I did this to myself by taking away his pacifier. It's not even screaming for a little bit and falling back asleep, he's so mad and scared that it goes for an hour or two, and I'm really hoping last night was the last night. It scares me and I don't know what I can do for him. His sleep schedule is in such a funk right now because he has trouble falling asleep, that I've been trying to let him just sleep whenever he's tired.

Ohh, I'm leaving him with Jacy tomorrow so I can go get some cavities filled. 30% cost share isn't cheap at all, I wish I could get on a better dental plan, but I think as Blake get promoted it gets even more expensive. I also need a root canal redone, which is going to be way expensive...truth is, I'm going to use the money on an iPhone instead. The phone I'm currently using never works, and I have a feeling I'd be in big trouble if my car broke down because I wouldn't have service. I don't know what's wrong with it, but AT&T doesn't even have the phone in their systems and told me get a new one and that's why I don't get service. I think I'll just wait until we move to get my tooth worked on, supposedly dental should be better and cheaper at Fort Lewis. I might eat my words when I get there though. The reviews for the endodontists that take my insurance in this area are terrible, and I'm not wasting $300 just to get my tooth redone. I can take the pain... I think. I feel like I'm venting, maybe it's because I don't have anyone at home to complain to, I don't think Wyatt would commiserate and I'm mad at the cats because they're dumb.

Anyway, to get back on topic, I hope Wyatt has a better night tonight, and a better day tomorrow. Here are pictures of my dumb cats. I'm mad at them because they pee and throw up everywhere... and I'm pretty sure it's because they don't like their new cat food. All I can say is tough luck because she needs it unless she wants to pee blood again.

Mom's Birthday.

Double post, oh well. I had two events happen on the same day. Dennis and Jacy got married on my mom's birthday, haha. Their pics are in the post below this one.

I'm terrible, so many food pics, mmmm. Should have taken them before we started eating, lol.
