Happy President's Day

I was wondering why there were so many kids in Target today and then I realized it was President's Day, and they don't have school. I used to love that holiday! We had a really nice Valentine's Day. Rod and I went out for dinner to Olive Garden while Grandpa Bob and Alice watched Wyatt for us. We have not been out alone in so long, it took a little bit to get used to not chasing after Wyatt and pulling stuff out of my purse to keep him busy! It was nice though, and we both agreed it has to happen more often!

February 10th was Rod's birthday and I actually cooked a whole thanksgiving meal.. Turkey, gravy, mashed potatoes, stuffing.... the whole bit!" It was really good, but a lot of work! I have never done all of that by myself. I am glad Rod liked it though. Turkey is my favorite meat, so I really loved it!

We really don't have a lot of other exciting news to report. Wyatt is talking so much. He is getting to be so independent too, and doesn't like to get dressed at all. He prefers
to stay in whatever he has on... so that is fun negotiating that! He is a good boy though, and even says " Thank you Mommy" and brings his dishes to the sink when he was done! I think he can give his daddy some lessons on the dishes part! :)

Hope you all enjoyed this holiday.

Sorry its been so long!

Long time, no post! I have just been busy doing stuff with Wyatt and all that goes along with that. Wyatt had Surgery on January 15th on his front teeth and mouth. We went to Childrens Hospital in St. Paul and he was asleep for about an hour and a half. It went great. Rod went back with him while they put him under.... I just couldn't watch that, but we both were there when he was done and he was a very unhappy camper! I think he was confused and groggy, but after a couple of hours in dad's arms, he was fine. The hardest part of the day was having to give back the purple PJ's they had him wear. He wanted to keep them. The Dr's and nurses at Childrens are just amazing.

Its been pretty cold , so we have been staying inside, going to and having playdates, and that's pretty much it! I have been going to the Fertiltiy Dr quite a bit to try for baby number 2, so that keeps me really busy. Hopefully in a few months we will have baby news.... Say a prayer!

Rod's birthday is coming up February 10th..... 35! Almost 40, that's what I keep telling him. In March we have Ella's birthday party. I can't believe she will be three.

Not much else to report. Hopefully I will keep this more up to date!
