We are now in Florida! Wyatt and I got in Wednesday morning. It is so nice to be with Nick, and Wyatt is very happy to be with his daddy again. Nick was worried that Wyatt wouldn't remember him after a month, but he did. Before we came out we were able to spend some extra time with my family. It was a lot of fun, and I'm so grateful for my family and all they did to help me. We also went to the Dodge Circuit National Finals Rodeo last Saturday. My grandpa gets a bunch of tickets every year right in front and invited us to go. Wyatt loved it. He sat on our laps the whole time and just watched. On Sunday we went to Orem and stayed with Michele for a few days. It was a lot of fun to be able to spend some quality time with her. Even though she still had to work, we managed to party it up at night, Wyatt and all. Thanks Meesh, we had a blast!

Wyatt is loving this hot weather. He wants to be outside all of the time. Today we went to the pool for the first time, and he had a great time. After we had come home and I'd given Wyatt a bath, I was cleaning up a few things. He came into my bedroom with his blanket, laid on the floor, and closed his eyes. When I went to pick him up, he opened his eyes, got up and went into his room and stood by his crib. I guess that is his way of letting me know when he's ready for his nap. Wyatt has become very attached to his blanket. I didn't realize it until the other day I was in the car with him fussing, I tried giving him his sippy cup then his paci, but he didn't want anything. As soon as I handed him his blanket he shut right up and went to sleep. I can't believe how smart he is getting. It blows my mind how much he learns every day.


Enjoying the rodeo.
