Another Jump On It Video!!

Here is another video from Jump On It.  Wyatt had a hard time with the big trampolines on the wall.  He eventually found some smaller trampolines in another area that were smaller that he could jump off of.  He had a blast and kept asking Doug to chase/catch up with him as he jumped around on all of the trampolines.

Jump On It!!

We decided to go to Jump On It as a family activity for something to do one night while Wyatt has been on his Christmas break from school.  It was fun to go.  Doug and Wyatt jumped around and I watched and recorded.  They seemed to have a great time.  Doug was definitely a bit sore the next day though.

Christmas!!

 Wyatt and Doug reading a letter from Santa.

 When Wyatt got up Christmas morning he ran to this table where the cookies and milk were left for Santa and some carrots for the reindeer.  Notice the plates.  This is how he knew that Santa had come.  He was so excited to see that the cookies were gone.  He kept screaming "Santa Came".  So much fun.

Here are some photos of Christmas this year.  We were all definitely spoiled this year.  Doug and I got ourselves some mountain bikes so we can go riding with Wyatt.  We didn't put those under the tree though.  As soon as I got home with them Wyatt was so excited and insisted that we go for a bike ride.  So we used them a bit early while the weather was still good.  Doug and I got new shoes, Wyatt got lots of new pj's, remote control cars, art supplies, paper, play dough, Cars 2 Trouble game, Cars 2 Wii game, Mario & Sonic Winter Olympics wii game, Mater Tales wii game, some movies, a dump truck, etc.  Doug and I also got some new clothes, Doug got some videos and Wipe out 3 wii game which Wyatt loves.  He has played it constantly since Christmas.  We were very blessed this year.

Painting Wyatt's Bedroom!!

We took on the project of painting 2 walls in Wyatt's bedroom.  He has been telling us that he wanted to paint his room blue.  One wall is a dark blue.  These pictures are of Doug and Wyatt painting the other wall a dark green.  Wyatt got to choose the colors that he wanted.  His room turned out great.  It is definitely darker.  It made his room look taller as well.  We have some other walls in the house that we want to paint at some point but we wanted to start with Wyatt's room while he was on his Christmas break from school.

Blending Badge!!

Today Wyatt got his blending badge at school!!  He has been working on this for months.  He had to blend 2 letters together like a vowel and another letter.  It took him a little bit to catch on to blending.  I have been working on it at home with him and he has been practicing at school as well.  He did an awesome job practicing all of the blending letters on Monday or Tuesday so I e-mailed his teacher to test him.  His teacher tested him towards the end of class today.  He came home with his badge on.  He was so proud to show me when he got off the bus.  It was awesome that he got it done!!  I am so proud of him!!

Silly Kittens!!

 My silly cat sleeping.

 Wyatt's cat named Puff Ball sleeping funny under the Christmas tree.

Here are some cute and silly photos of the kittens.  They love sleeping under the Christmas tree.  They also sleep in funny positions if you can tell.  My cat is the one with more white and some orange.  I named him Jinx.  Wyatt's cat is the one that is mostly orange with white paws.  He named his cat Puff Ball.

New Pets!!

We adopted these 2 cute kittens over the weekend.  I was planning on going in to get 1 new kitten but we decided that we couldn't adopt one and leave the other behind.  These 2 are brothers which makes it fun.  They are 11 weeks old.  The one that is white with some orange and short haired is mine and his name is Jinx.  The other kitten which is mostly orange with white paws is actually Wyatt's.  As soon as we decided to bring 2 home he said that it was his.  Wyatt still hasn't given it a name yet.  He keeps calling them kitty and will correct us if we call them a cat.  Wyatt has been really great with the kittens as well.  He plays with them, pets them, brushes them, checks on them throughout the day, etc.  He has been so excited to have his own kitten.  When his hamster died in October he asked when he was going to get a new pet.  He has been wanting a puppy for the longest time.  He wasn't originally thrilled to get  a kitten but now he has been enjoying it.  He has been a big help with the kittens.  The kittens have been loving the Christmas tree as well.  We had to put all of the gifts away so they wouldn't get destroyed.  It has been interesting getting adjusted to having kittens around again but it has been fun too.  Doug's allergies haven't been too bad.  We will see how that all turns out.  He has been great about getting kittens especially 2 of them.
