Wyatt's 3 Months



Wyatt has changed quite a bit over the last 3 months. He is still very active and loves our attention. He is developing a lot of new habits. We have tried to capture his habits with pictures to share with everyone. Whenever Wyatt eats, his hands have to be doing something. Lately he has decided he needs to help us hold the bottle. Wyatt loves to see the world and be involved. He enjoys just sitting and watching his surroundings. He really likes to watch the TV. We hope that’s not a sign of a bad habit he is developing. Wyatt has also discovered a lot about himself. He cannot stop sucking his hands or playing with his feet. It is cute seeing him try to suck his thumb and attempt to suck his toes (although he isn’t quite flexible enough for that yet). His favorite activity right now is looking at himself in the mirror. He could smile, laughs and stare at himself for hours.

Halloween 2013



Happy 1st Halloween Wyatt! 
 
Travis had a busy Halloween this year. He was not allowed to dress up for school, so he grew out his mustache and dressed up like a teacher. You can't get in trouble if you are a teacher dressed up like a teacher. He borrowed his dad's plaid jacket and a knitted tie.

A local family in Kaysville puts on a haunted house every Halloween and they donate the proceeds to a charity. This year half of the money they earned went to Mountain High School where Travis works. Travis, along with many students from Mountain, were part of the haunted house. Travis was dressed as a clown juggling knives, fire, and skulls while interacting with the crowd waiting in line to enter the haunted house. It was fun, but also quite exhausting.

There is a news clip from channel 2 Morning News that spotlighted the haunted house. At minute 7 it shows Travis "Ronney the Clown" juggling.

Emily dressed up for school where her class participated in a school wide parade and had a class Halloween party. It was a lot of fun for her and she loves the opportunity to celebrate the holidays like she was a kid again.

Emily and Wyatt spent the day with Emily's family. They went down to West Valley and enjoyed an evening at Grandma Lila's house. Grandma makes the best homemade chilli.
