Gone Viral

Its been a year since we announced that I was pregnant with Carter, and if you haven't seen the video, then enjoy!  It was really fun to do.  Well, I guess the website Motherglow.com discovered it and showcased it for thier Thanksgiving post.  Motherglow.com is a website that shows different families aanouncing they are having a baby.  Kind of crazy to think I've gone a very tiny bit viral!



Just an update:  I was recently contacted by a Japanese TV production company, asking to use my video on a new show they were developing!  Little Wyatt is going to be a Japanese celebrity!  HA!

Want to send an energetic boy away and get an exhausted one in return?

Then send him and his dad to the Air Show at the Nellis Air Force Base!  Wyatt and Byron had a great time, but with all the planes to explore, the loud jets zooming by, and the long hours, you are sure to get one tired boy by the end of the day!  Hooray for me!  I wish there were Air Shows every weekend!  HA!

Just in case you had any doubt...

...Yeah, I know...He's pretty dang handsome!

A Nevada Day Tradition

We've started to create a neat little transition of going to Disneyland for Halloween.  Its a great weekend to go, since the kids are out of school for Nevada Day.  And thankfully, Californians don't celebrate Nevada Day, so the park is less crowded!  (However, I did just realize it is a little twisted to celebrate Nevada Day in a totally different state, probably not a good way to support our economy!  Oh well!)  This time we invited my parents, Connie and KB (or Grammy and Pappa, if your talking to Wyatt) to come with us.  Halloween is one of Mom's favorite times of year so I knew she'd enjoy it, and after all the health issues KB has dealt with this year, going with him was like going with a brand new dad!  He would go speed walking for 1 to 2 miles BEFORE we all headed to Disneyland, then spend the day walking through the park.  It was a lot of fun to run into old and new friends every so often since they were all celebrating Nevada Day too.  The weather was gorgeous.  There were new rides and things to see, like the World of Color (which even I hadn't gone to see yet) and fun things like sticking Mom on the Goofy's Sky School after leading her to believe it was a fun simple ride.  Hee hee!

HAllOweEn FuN!

This October went by in a blur.  I usually have a lot of fun Halloween crafts planned for Wyatt, but this time, before I knew it, Halloween weekend was here and I was having to schedule in pumpkin carving and cookie making, and a trip to Disneyland all in a very small pocket of time.  Thankfully though, we were still able to create some great memories and enjoy the Halloween festivities. 

We always make time for pumpkin carving.  Byron and I get really into it too, trying to make the best design.  Our tradition is that there has to be a pumpkin for each member of the family...even the dogs!  It was exciting and surreal to add another pumpkin for our new "little punkin,'" Carter!

It was a great night!

M.I.A.

I've been thinking about why I haven't been blogging my random thoughts lately and I have come to the conclusion that there are no random thoughts in my head.  I'm too exhausted to have any!  I think I am going brain dead!  :)
