Hoppy Halloween

Hope everyone is having as much fun as we are. Heather came up for Halloween and we have been having non-stop fun. Here are the cute costumes.

Boy, was it cold outside though! We are not used to having such cold Halloweens in California!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN

Schedule

First off I wanted to post a photo of what happened last night. I like to post when the first snow comes so I can compare from past years.

Ryan's Schedule:

Eat, poop, sleep, repeat.

Wyatt's schedule:

eat, play, play, get dirty, go in the potty, play, eat, play, play, bug Daddy, play, eat, play, brush teeth, sleep.

Wyatt is a good big brother. He likes to have Ryan hold his hand.

the other night I was putting Ryan back to bed and Wyatt asked if he could say good night, so Brandon put him up in the crib. Wyatt thought this was hilarious!

We told Wy to pretend that he was sleeping.... pretty believable huh?

We are all here

Brandon was able to take off 28 days for Ryan's birth. It was a life saver. I don't know if everyone would have been dresses fed or even alive if he wasn't here to help me! We got a lot done while he was home. We potty trained Wyatt. He wears underwear everywhere and only has a diaper on at night time now. It was the most frustrating weekend of my life, glad that is over (until Ryan, Aawwww man!) Apparently you let your children wear whatever they want while potty training!


Ryan is like shape shifter baby. One day I thought he looked like me, the next I see a flash of my brother John, and now I question if we took the wrong baby home from the hospital. Hopefully once he loses his baby acne and gets a better hairline we will start seeing us in him again.

We had a good time with Dad, but from the photo below I think it is obvious that Brandon was getting ready to go back to work. Boredom gets to the best of us.

Wyatt has been really nice to Ryan. He asks to hold him and kiss him a lot. After we get him all set up to hold the baby, he holds him for about1.5 seconds and is done.But he is always up to give a kiss...even more so if he knows I have the camera.

Overall I think we are pretty happy and have a lot to smile about!

You make my life so easy

So this pan is really what started this whole blog post today. I was thinking about dinner while feeding Ryan (which I am doing a lot of these days) and then started thinking about how much I love this particular pan. My In-Laws got the set for me and I have used this pan for just about everything. It is the perfect size and NOTHING sticks to it. I love it!


When I finished feeding Ryan , I went back to bed and got into a warm bed. Brandon had changed the mattress protector to our heated one. I love this thing! When I have to wake up in the middle of the night I can just click the button and a little while later I am in a warm bed. I can't even explain how nice this has been for my middle of the night feedings! I fall asleep so much faster and now a days, sleep is huge!


I am really grateful for the DVR also! It saves me everyday. I don't even remember the days of having to sit down at a certain time to watch my favorite shows. I can watch them anytime. It helps me get a shower which is also huge right now!

The last (but not least) thing I can think of that I love is my hands free controls in the car. Changing the radio and making phone calls is so easy and much safer (now I know why it has been so LONG since my last accident).



I know these things are little and dumb, but they seriously make my life so much easier/ enjoyable. It's the little things that count right? Maybe I gave someone a good Christmas present idea. If anyone has something they love that I am missing out on, please share! I need all the help I can get!

Fat bottom girls

Wouldn't it be cool if I won this bike? I think so too...Baby photos to come.
