Mommy's big boy!

Exciting news! Wyatt slept from 9 - 6:20 last night! Hurray! The two nights before that he did 8 hour stretches as well, which were the longest he had ever slept. I'm hoping we've turned the corner and this will become the norm! Aaron had to work this morning at 5:30, so he got up at 4:45. I expected Wyatt to wake up then (that's when he woke up the two previous nights), but he didn't. I woke up an hour later and went in to check on him because I thought surely something was wrong as my son does not sleep through the night! I put my hand on him, and he was breathing and he squirmed around a little but didn't wake up. So I went back to bed and he woke up about a half hour later. Looks like we are going to have to work on Mommy sleeping through the night as Wyatt seems to be just fine with sleeping for 9+ hours! (Don't worry, I am fully prepared for him to wake up three or four times tonight - it wouldn't surprise me one bit. :) )

Anyway, another reason why Wyatt is a big boy - we started giving him some rice cereal for the last two nights before bed. He really doesn't eat much of it, but it's good practice for him.

Today Wyatt and I went to church with Grandma and Grandpa Brummer. I was actually going to be on time this week, but when I was changing Wyatt's diaper right before we went out the door he wet his whole outfit. So, we arrived just before the music started. Better than the last time! :) After church we ran some errands and Wyatt was a good sport. Here's a picture of him sporting Mommy's good deal - Target has the $1 section at the front of the store, and I found this hat and mittens there. $2! It'll be a great back up set for this winter. I have a friend from high school who is going to knit Wyatt a winter hat - she has a website where you can check out all of the things that she knits. She is doing it to raise money so her family can adopt a baby. We are going to get the brown snowflake hat - so cute! But for those times when we forget his hat/he spits up on it, etc. we have this $1 back-up!


These mittens taste yummy!
