It is amazing how quickly time is passing. I am blown away at what both of my children are learning and doing each and every day. (Perhaps that is why I'm exhausted all the time..?), time for rest later in life...now is not that time! Ruby is the strongest little girl I've ever seen. She began rolling over at 3.5 months, crawling at 6 months, shortly followed by sitting up within the first week or two of turning 6 months. Now at 7 months, she is pulling herself up onto things and holding on with one hand....WHAT?! It seems crazy, but she's just trying to keep up with Wyatt I suppose! Wyatt is in the process of transitioning into his toddler bed, another HUGE milestone that I wasn't quite ready for, but he was ready. He was aggressively climbing out of his crib ever since we got home from the Disney Cruise last week. He has a black eye and several bruises on his legs, I'll take some pics...He took some falls needless to say, in his blind rage climbing out of the crib. It was best for his safety to go ahead and make the move. I'm way behind on updating so I'm going to bombard my page with photos, and unfortunately they're not exactly in chronological order, I'm doing this as quickly as I can while I have a minute to myself so this will have to do for now!
Had a visit from all the cousins for Wyatt and Ruby's dedication at our church a few weekends ago. The kids had so much fun!
OH and by the way, Auburn is playing for the national title in a couple weeks?!
Ruby's first wagon ride.
Getting a close up look at the gingerbread man pillow on our hearth. She's so strong! 6.5 months in this pic.
Bon Voyage on the family reunion Disney Dream! 4 nights on the cruise, it was crazy and fun!
Nothing like a good veranda in your room to air everything out!!
More cruise pics...
3 generations
Unfortunately I think this is the best family photo we got...I think we need to do better.
Just hanging out on the top deck.
My little model, happy girl.
Definitely was cute seeing her bounce around on daddy all day, they are a fun little pair!
Love my niece, Isabelle. She had a blast!!
Wyatt and Curran's first pina coladas! I'm pretty sure Wyatt didn't take his mouth off the straw for about five minutes straight!
If only everybody could have stayed awake for pirate night! At least we got a cute pic!
Wyatt meets Jake!
Wyatt and daddy putting the toddler rail on and removing side of his crib this weekend.
Pics of the final result. We left a twin mattress on the floor in his room along with his toddler bed. I think he's going to adjust quickly. Please God! His first night went better than expected. It did take quite a while to get him to go to sleep, but once he did, he stayed in his bed until morning! He woke up a little early and tried to come out of his room but we are mean and keep his door locked. It's safer to not take chances on him roaming the house in the middle of the night. Naps this weekend haven't happened...because he just isn't used to his bed yet, so fingers crossed that today he will take a nap. I'll probably have to lock him in his room....
We are just so proud of him, It is hard to watch them grow up because you want them to stay small and sweet forever on one side of the coin, but on the other hand it is so rewarding to see my little boy accomplish such great things!! We rewarded him this morning with an early Christmas present since we are only two days away. He got a Buzz Lightyear plush toy to take in his bed with him. He seemed really excited and we are doing our best to positively reinforce his accomplishment sleeping in the toddler bed.
This pic was taken this morning, Dec. 23, 2013, She turned 7 months old yesterday. She's a little stud muffin.
