Florida Continued

The rest of our trip to Florida was great. The sun came out and the last few days were gorgeous! We spent a lot of time at the pool swimming and hanging out. We also managed to squeeze in a few more trips on the golf cart tram to the beach. Wyatt enjoyed sitting up front with the driver checking everything out. We looked for birds, alligators, and turtles on all of our trips:) It was nice to get away for a week and Wyatt enjoyed spending lots of time with Nana.

I hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving!

Fun Times in Florida

Wyatt, Chase, Nana, and I are having a great time down in Naples. We arrived down here on Tuesday and Aunt Vicki was here with us until Thursday. Wyatt loved spending time with her and is still asking "Where is Aunt Vicki?" For the first three days it was cloudy and actually kind of chilly, but the sun came out yesterday and it was a gorgeous day. It is supposed to be sunny and in the low 80's the rest of our time down here:) It is so nice to soak up some sun! So far Wyatt's highlights of the trip are riding the golf cart tram to the beach and watching the bobcat work at the park. Boys have their priorities:)

Chase is still struggling some with his nighttime sleeping so we are really working on this. He does great the first part of the night going 5-6 hours before needing to eat but then sometimes has a really hard time going down after that. Also, I think he thinks that he is supposed to be up for the morning at 4:30 or 5:00...a little too early for me! Let's just keep our fingers crossed that he will figure things out soon!

I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend:)

Happy Halloween!

We had a busy but great Halloween weekend. On Friday Wyatt had his Halloween parade and party at school. I was able to go to both the parade and party this year and Nana and Evan joined us for the parade. Wyatt dressed up as a monkey but would not put on his hood...oh well, he's a two year old with his own agenda:) Then on Friday night we went to Maketewah Country Club for their Halloween party with Nana, Papa, and Evan. Wyatt spent most of the night out on the dance floor "dancing" (which really just consisted of jumping up and down and then crashing on the floor). We took it easy on Saturday until it was time for trick-or-treating. Wyatt rode his motorcycle around the cul-de-sac with his bag hanging from the handle bars. A great way to trick-or-treat! The rest of the night he spent playing basketball and playing with his buddy Elijah. It was a fun night and it was nice to have Papa join us at our house for it. To wrap up the weekend on Sunday we took Wyatt to Iron's Fruit Farm. We took a hayride and then walked a 12 acre corn maze. Wyatt really enjoyed the maze and we have decided to definitely go back next year! During this time Chase got to spend some time with Aunt Ellen, Grace, Hannah, and Grandpa...thanks Ellen for watching him!

Also, Chase is now 1 month old! On Friday we had his 1 month checkup and he passed with flying colors. He weighed 9 pounds 12 ounces (50th percentile) and was 21 inches long (25th percentile). We are now calling him our little peanut...as of now he's taking after me in the height department...that might not be a good thing though:)

We hope everyone had a wonderful Halloween weekend!
