I told myself a long time ago that I would not be one of those Mom's that got to her third kid and stopped taking pictures. I have turned into one. Wyatt is 9 months old and we don't have nearly as many pictures of him as we do the girls. SO, even though it was kind of chilly this weekend I decided to take the time and get some pictures of him.
After we got some good shots at the Round House on the trains we headed over to Bear river. He must have been done with the smiles or he didn't like the venue. We couldn't get him to smile anymore.
After a few shots he was done and started trying to get away. He lunged forward and hit his face on the rock. He busted his lip and burst into tears. Poor guy!
After we got him calmed down I decided to see if our neighbors would let us use their yard for a few shots. They agreed and we tried again to get a couple of smiles. He was done!

Wyatt,
We have loved every minute of your first nine months. Well...there were a few dicey moments the first week, but ever since has been a fun and exciting adventure. You are full of personality and love. You light up when you hear your sisters voices and get so excited when you see Zoe coming toward you. I get so many cute and slobbery kisses during the day I feel so loved and needed. Your smile is just so cute with your six tiny teeth, chubby cheeks and gorgeous sparkling blue eyes. I can only imagine the kind of mischief you will get away with in the next 18 years. You are my little buddy and I love having you with me. I am so grateful to my Heavenly Father for letting you stay with us. I love you more than I ever thought I could.
With all the love in my heart,
Mom
A bang trim was overdue but she's pretty dang cute anyway!
I don't like to wear slippers very often since my feet are always hot, but I couldn't resist these. I still can't figure out where this fascination with pirates came from, but I can't get enough! I never realized how fun Halloween decorations could be until I caught the pirate bug! Now all I need is money and we'd be decked out.
I hope he likes pirates too! I would love to have this cake for his birthday...
but since I'm not all that talented it won't happen! (photo and inspiration courtesy of Wilton)

This is while I was cleaning. But, it happens several times a day. I give up on a clean window!
How can I resist calling him Bubba?!

We only got to see Aunt Louise this weekend, but we hope Ladd had a great day too.
SCRUBBLE, SCRUBBLE
Glenn called us when they were all done and I took the kids over to Arctic Circle to meet them for ice cream. Mandi and her girls met us there too. It was PACKED with men and boys in white shirts and ties, but we managed to find a table and enjoy some ice cream.
The Grandkid train was rolling through the living room. Sadie was even equipped with a whistle!
Just so there's no confusion as to who is who...
