Oh, yes! Twilight fever has hit our home. I read the first book, just to see what all the fuss was about and immediately grabbed Elyzabeth and told her she had to read it. Needless to say we have read the books multiple times and even have one of the grandmas reading it. We had much fun going to the midnight DVD release party. Elyzabeth dressed for the occasion as you can see.
Wyatt, our youngest, had his 12 month checkup today. His pediatrician has a tradition of taking the kids photos with a cowboy hat to commemorate the occasion. He is very healthy and getting very tall. He is 31 inches tall, which is an inch taller than big brother Zachary at 1 year. It definitely makes us curious about who will be taller in the long run, Zach or Wyatt. This past year seems to be a whirl wind, and Wyatt has taken everything in stride. He is a very happy baby, who loves to gives hug. As a mom, I hope this characteristic never goes away. Walking came early for Wyatt at 10 months, and has been following Zachary ever since. Wyatt is very quiet accept when extremely frustrated, which doesn't happen very often and is quick to give a smile. His sweet spirit touches everyone and you can't help but kiss his cute cheeks!
Our St. Patrick's Day baby is One! We celebrated Wyatt's birthday on Sunday, March 15, 2009 with family. We couldn't decide on a theme for Wyatt so we did the St. Patrick theme, since this will probably be the only time he will let us get away with it. I decided to try my hand and cake decorating and went with a cupcake theme. Much thanks to my best friend, Nicki for helping me. Can not believe it took 6 hours to decorate everything, but I do make an awesome butter cream frosting.
We were also able to snap the elusive family photo. Not sure when the next one will be, it's hard getting everyone rounded up and cooperative for a family photo. I personally am dreading christmas cards this year. In lieu of gifts for Wyatt's birthday we asked for donations towards a backyard playscape and much thanks goes out to our families. You have made it happen. We are now in the process of getting it mapped out in the backyard and getting it prepared for our boys to have some fun out in the backyard.
