Wyatt's 21 Months

*Funny how his ear is folded onto itself that picture above, huh? lol*

Just wanted to post a few things before I forget...

He's starting to talk!!! LOL FINALLY! He's been saying "mom-ma" but the other day, he said 'da-dee' as clear as day whenever Jeremy had called me... he knows I mostly talk to Jeremy on the cell phone.

He has started pointing to himself and saying "my" or something similar for 'mine'... he doesn't annunciate it quite right, but you can tell what he's saying... so, he's going through the 'mine' stage as of now! hehehe

He also tries to say 'stop' (along with the hand up to motion it) and 'go' (pointing in a direction).

I joke about him being in the 'no' phase but by shaking his head... not saying 'no'. He has started shaking his head for 'yes' more now though!

Yesterday (Sept. 15th), he started sighing!!! LOL He even does his shoulders with the sound! hehehe A little while back, every time I'd take a deep breath and he was near me, he'd do it. Now, he sighs... lol Of course, its so cute!

If I'm fussing, he'll try to soothe things over by giving me kisses or hugs and the sweetest look on his face :D

If he's trying to get my attention but hitting my leg (not hard, just to get my attention since he isn't really talking yet) and I don't look at him fast enough or get up fast enough, he'll kiss my knees; he knows I love his kisses and that he'll get a good response from me.

He fakes sleeping! He'll lay down & then he 'snores'. He hasn't realized that he needs to close his eyes along with that... but, its so cute (gee, I say that a lot, huh? hehe Oh well...)

I was doing animal sounds for him and he really likes the cow's 'Moooo' :D hehehe He kept doing it over and over... with is lips all pushed forward :D

He does this short laugh whenever anyone burps :D He thinks its funny when he farts. He pinches his nose if I say "poo-wee" i.e. like whenever he poops (he's been doing that for a while now).

Whenever the girls get home from school, he has to do his own homework. He gets some paper, a pencil or crayon and scribbles and then brings it to me for praise :D hehe Ursula actually still does this too; but her scribbles are more advanced... hehe

He still loves 'boy' stuff. Loves any vehicle... will take them out, roll them on the floor and make the automobile sounds. Loves bats and balls. Loves throwing & kicking balls. However, there are times he'll pick up a doll (like whenever Ursula's playing with them) and hug, kiss, or make the doll(s) walk. He likes stacking things up & then knocking them down.

Whenever he wants to eat, he'll point to his highchair for me to put him in it. And at mealtimes, he'll get his own bowl/plate of food and eat at the table with the girls :D He eats really well.

I had originally tried getting pictures of his 'haircut'. We didn't take anything off off of the top (what's with all the off's/of's? lol hey, it makes sense in my mind... lol). He wasn't exactly cooperating with the camera; esp. since my flash is out and both me & my subject has to be super still to take a decent picture... His hair actually needs to be redone... those sides of his hair seem to grow faster than anywhere else... I've snipped it myself (while he was nursing) with scissors 4 different times before Jeremy took the clippers to it!

Also, in some of these pictures, he's actually chewing on some food (granola bars)...

Additional Stuff

Some new pics of Wyatt first:

Wyatt Climbing

Add to My Profile More Videos

Well, as of the other day, Tuesday, Wyatt can climb up the bunkbeds... all the way to the top! Arrrggghhhh!!!! Is nothing safe anymore??? So yeah... now, I have to either close that door too or stay in the room with him. Jeremy mentioned that he could put up that dry erase board on that part of the bunkbed that he can climb.... that would thwart all climbing... which is fine too since my girls can get up other ways.... OOORRRR, he said he could take the top bunk down and put it in the other room... but, what will we do with the Soloflex? And the other stuff that's being stored in there? Of course, he did say that he'd build a storage shed; when that'll happen is anyone's guess. Would be great though.

Another thing Wyatt does that's cute... when he sits on the floor, he crosses his legs... Indian style. Sooooo cute! He did that this past weekend at Jared's house while he was trying to pet their crazy-ass cat (who happened to be pretty calm that night... surprisingly).

Wyatt also is totally into turning the TV off and on. Woohoo (sarcasm there).

He opens my dishwasher too... undoes the handle that clicks it closed... yep... then he goes for the sharpest object or something breakable. I have no idea what I can do to stop him... I guess I can put a chair in front of it but he'll either move it or climb up on it and mess with stuff the counter.

Yes, he climbs up on pretty much all chairs... and from there goes on to higher places... yay. Like the table.

He also brings me shoes (usually just one though) to put on him. He'll give me a shoe and then put his foot up so I can put it on him.

He takes his diapers off. And once, he actually pulled his pecker out and it was on top of the diaper while both sides were still fastened!!! LOL Crazy, huh? Speaking of peckers... the other day, someone posted a bulletin on MySpace about circumcisions... I'm soooo soooo soooo glad I didn't do that to my son!!! OMG! Makes you want to cry! Pure torture for those sweet, innocent newborns!

Of course, he's still nursing. An added benefit to me is my period hasn't returned yet :D woohoo!

New Feats

Wyatt's current love is to climb up onto a chair/sofa/ottoman and stand up, let go of his hands, stand there all proud of himself and then bounce/dance!!! Its so funny but of course, dangerous; so I take him down; which he doesn't like... When he sees me coming, he crouches down and holds on to the chair. In order to prevent him from standing on chairs, I have been overturning the kiddie ones... well, he's figured out how to stand them up! LOL While I was talking to my sister, Aimee, on the phone yesterday, he did it 3 times in a row! So, now I have to overturn the kiddie chairs and put them under the table! hehehe

He also loves sitting on things. Like, toys or people... if its on the floor, he'll sit on it. Or if its a box, he'll climb inside.

And here's a picture of him sitting in one of the kiddie chairs eating Cheerios :D
