When They Thought I Was Sleeping

When my parents think I'm going to sleep, I'm actually entertaining myself in other ways like taking the vents out, moving my pillows and blankets to the floor to sleep, and other things they still don't know about. One afternoon this is how they found me when I woke up from my nap. It kind of hurt when I tried to get up.
Since I had been moving to the floor to sleep at my old house, they didn't feel bad to give me a temporary bed to sleep on at the new house. Now that I don't have moving to the floor to entertain myself, I just take off my diaper and pajamas.

Panties

I was excited to play with my cousins Ashley, Trey and Hannah today. Ashley is 5 months older than me and is learning to use the potty. I don't go potty in the potty when I'm with my mom and dad, but I go potty in the potty when I'm with Ashley. I really like to "wipe" too. I'm good at it Aunt Katie said. Aunt Katie took off my diaper and I wouldn't let her put it back on. I insisted on "panties" so I got to run around in panties and went potty in the potty every time I sat on the potty. Mom's thinking maybe Ashley should come spend a few days at our house to see if then I'd go potty in the potty for her too!

I Moved

I really don't have a clue what's going on, but I now have a different house. Things first started changing when I woke up one morning and my kitchen was gone. Then when I went to bed that night my bear was gone. I was told that dad had taken them to the farm. Then I got really stressed out a couple of days ago my mom and dad were carrying a couch out of our house. I started crying and saying "No Move It!"

Yesterday morning they told me to say good bye to my house and that we were going to go get bear. All the way to daycare I reminded my dad, "Go get it."

When we finally arrived at the new house, I was looking for deer, since I'd heard my dad saying he sees deer on the farm. "Where are the deer?" I asked. I guess they're hiding from us, so for now there are "no deer."

P.S. I promise pictures of Wyatt and I will be coming soon. Did I tell you he smiled at me?

How to... (Part 2)

...help your mom feel like she can be a good mommy again.

Have your daddy come home.

See here for part one.

The Look

This is the look I give my Uncle Shawn, who I'm quite fond of, whenever he tries to take my picture. I think 'smile' is just a mere suggestion. My parents are really hoping I don't think that when I get my pictures taken today.

The winner is...

...my grandma. She picked the day my brother would be born and wins my first blog giveaway. Here is the picture I colored for her with a few additional doodles someone else added.

How To...

...make your mom feel like she's unfit to be a mother.
...make your mom not want to have any more kids.

1. Yell loudly near your sleeping sibling and in public places.
2. Put your siblings binky in your mouth frequently even though she tells you not to.
3. Make it difficult to have a clean binky around for easy use by touching them often after you've touched filthy things like park trash cans.
4. Fall out of your stroller and off of a chair and hit your head.
5. Cry that you want to be held when she's holding your sibling.
6. Learn how to spit so you can spit randomly on people and furniture and spit out food frequently. See following picture for an example.
7. Color with pen on upholstery.
8. Play with the water in the toilet and with the toilet bowl cleaner.
9. Escape out of the house when she's changing your sibling. This works especially well if they're screaming so she can't hear the door open.
10. Disobey (i.e., run away when she says to come, continue playing in the toilet when she says to stop, run in the street when she says to walk on the sidewalk, etc.).
11. Tell her "no" when she tells you to do something.
12. Don't share with nice people who come visit you.
13. Don't show any interest in potty training.
14. Cry when you don't get your way and when she makes you stop what you're having fun doing.
15. Undress your sibling and take off his diaper.

In other words, don't act like this:

Wyatt's Stats

Wyatt went to the doctor for a check up today. I went to daycare so I didn't get to go along. For some reason, my mom is nervous about going out as the only adult with Wyatt and I. I have heard my parents say several times that he is a lot different than me when I was a baby. His stats from today's appointment prove it. Here's the comparison...

Birth weight:
E - 7 pounds 6 ounces W - 8 pounds 2 ounces
Birth length:
E - 20 1/4 inches W - 21 inches
Length of time taken to eat:
E - 45-60 minutes W - 15 minutes maximum
Weight at 2 week check up:
E - 5 ounces over birth weight W - 18 ounces over birth weight!
Length at 2 week check up:
E - 22 inches W - 22 inches
(They measured three times and got three different measurements. This was the middle of the three.)

Can you explain to me how Wyatt can take so much less time to eat but gain weight so much faster?
