5 Sharp Lives: I think Wyatt is reading my blog

I think Wyatt is reading my blog

It is late. I am tired. I need to go to bed, but I just had to post the most amazing thing that happened in our house tonight just a few minutes ago.

Wyatt came to me, handed me my phone he has been playing games on and said he was going to bed. It is some kind of miracle. A tender mercy?! (Alicia wrote about those) Of course there is no guarantee that he will stay in bed at this point or how long it will take him to go to sleep, but I will take this as a huge stepping stone for the night.

Is it Mother's Day today?

Night all!

Oh, out of bed #1. Maybe I spoke too soon.

Hallelujah!!! The heavens opened and heard your cries. Or his.

Anyhow, girl...

That is a sweet tender mercy. (even if it only lasts 1 minute)

Bravo for recognizing it.

Sending sleeping vibes your way...

Look, stop stressing about stuff you CAN change. Does Dale stress about this stuff too. I say that only because I stress about the same shit and it does nothing. The bed issues. I used to freak out about the kids being in our bed, and Tracy kept telling me our kids are only little once. The terrible 2 issues, remember kids are going to do things forever. You and Dale are a team. You guys got this. Just keep your keys in your hands. LOL.
Hope you and your family have a great Mothers Day.

Stop stressing. Go running with Dale or let him kick your ass.

Dale

This is Dale. My Dale. The one I have spent pretty close to half of my life with. I love him. He loves God, he is strong, he provides for us, he treats me well, he makes me laugh. He's tall, dark, of course handsome, has got nice broad shoulders and a really cute butt. He is quiet and it takes quite awhile to get him to warm up, but once he does he is the best friend anyone could have. He is a great dad and his boys are his soft spot. I love spending my life with him. He makes everything ok when things are hard and he is my calm in the midst of a storm ... most of the time. I.LOVE.HIM!

Wyatt

This is our hilarious, sweet, cuddly, 5 year old boy, Wy Wy. He likes things his way and on his time. He is the best big brother around these parts. He is known to say "I love you, Mommy" out of the clear blue sky at home and in public. It's the best and usually gets quite a few "awe's" in public. He has got an amazing talent for sports already and has an arm that will surprise you. We love him to death and he brings us so much joy. He can also tell a story with the best of them and repeat almost any line from Sandlot, I know not all of them need to be repeated. He will start acting out scenes to movies at the oddest of times, but is always good for a laugh. (Click on the picture for Wyatt's birth story.)

Waylon

This is our 3 year old Waylonator or Wayners as his daddy calls him or Nayners as I like to call him now. He is the chubby little guy that has completely stolen our hearts. He loves to run naked around the house. He learns a ton from his brother. He can repeat anything you say to him, and understand most of it. He loves to dance, slide, play outside, wrestle, and bite his big brother. We don't have to worry about him sticking up for himself. He's got that covered. He sleeps like a champ and always has. His cuddle side is coming out, but he teases you 1st. He makes my heart swell. He finally calls me mommy now and momma on occasion. I might even get some "mom's" in there. He is so different from his brother it is amazing. Watching these two form such a tight brotherly bond brings us such joy. They truly love and enjoy each other. Nothing makes us happier! (Click on the picture for Waylon's birth story.)

Weston

This little guy is Weston. He was born on 1/25/11, 6lbs 15oz 21in. He is tall. He is already getting close to outgrowing the bassinet because of his length. He eats a ton and keeps me stressed out about my milk supply. He LOVES his brothers! You won't hear a peep out of him if one of them is holding him. They love him too! He's starting to smile and be more awake. There's nothing better than new smiles on a new face. He sleeps well at night and doesn't take too many naps during the day. He's starting to like baths. One thing you can always find him doing is squirming! He's been like this since the first time I felt him in my belly. We love what he brings to our family.
