There has been somewhat of a development around here though...Wyatt is slowly adopting his own version of a schedule. (Every mother lives for "the schedule"). He's up around 6:30 every morning. Then he eats, poops and coos a little before falling back asleep by 8. He'll usually sleep for about an hour then wakes up to eat again. For the rest of the day it is a series of 45 minute cat naps, followed by several dirty diapers and lots of eating. He is usually in bed by 10pm and hasn't been waking again until 4:30am or so. Then he eats and goes back to sleep until the whole process starts over again. Long story short--we're finally getting more sleep and I still have a baby attached to my boob basically all day long.
I tried to weigh Wyatt myself (on the bathroom scale) the other day. As best as I can guesstimate, he's weighing in around 13 pounds now. So he's getting big! He's incredibly long...haven't taken the time to measure him though. As a result of his growing, I had the sad moment of putting away his newborn clothes that no longer fit him. I just sat there looking at these sweet little nightgowns and onesies that are so tiny, marveling at how far he's come from that bright red, must-have-legs-in-the-air baby. It's amazing how children really signal the passing of time. I'm sure I will have many more of these moments as he continues to grow up.
We managed to get a great video of the little man "talking" to us again. As soon as I figure out how to get it off of the video camera, I will be posting it. It's just precious.
Speaking of videos...we finally got our blu-ray DVD player. And the first video that we bought for it is "Planet Earth". It is truly amazing. I was a total skeptic...I kept wondering why in the world it mattered if we had a blu-ray or just a regular DVD player. Oh, it matters my friend! The picture is amazing! Not to mention that "Planet Earth" is spectacular in and of itself. Anyway, I would highly recommend the blu-ray.
On the agenda for the Keevers...Saturday we have our first class social event (for Josh's war college class). We're having a picnic on the base. After the big picnic, we'll be heading up to Birmingham to hang out with Nana and Caesar (my parents). We're also going up there so that I can find a dress for the Navy Birthday Ball, which is next weekend. On Sunday, we have church and then we'll be headed home for another regular week. So stay tuned...perhaps we'll have something fun to tell you about this weekend...Also on our horizon (fingers crossed) is a potential trip to Jacksonville, Florida to see the vast majority of our family...we're still hammering out the details of that one, though.
As always, some more pictures for your enjoyment...
