Boys in a Box

Movie Star Wyatt. He loves to try on sunglasses but doesn't actually want to wear them when we are outside. Same with hats. Wyatt is communicating more and more. He has been using hand signals for milk, eat and more for a while, but now he is trying to talk. Reliably, he says 'yeti', 'out', 'shoes' and 'dad'. He listens and tries repeating words. He doesn't remember much yet but he is trying! Also, he has learned how to bring me things. He is very generous these days. I can even ask him to do things now like bring me his bottle, sit down, hug, go outside, stop playing in the potty, don't eat the dog food- all the basics. My favorite age with Noah was from about 15 mths to 3. That is when he could communicate, but he still minded and took naps. I am excited that Wyatt is about to be in that stage. Here are pictures of one of Noah and Greg's favorite games. Noah gets in the giant diaper box and Greg closes it up and carries him around the house, making Noah guess which room they are in. When the box becomes structurally unsound then Noah climbs in and Greg spins him on the floor like crazy and makes him walk across the room to me. It is hilarious. It takes Noah about a minute to recover and climb back in the box for more. Meanwhile Greg and I are getting naseous just watching him. Wyatt climbed in and decided it was not for him as soon as Greg closed one flap. He had fun putting his toys in the box with Noah. Both boys are growing like weeds. According to my growth chart Noah grew an inch in the last 2.5 months and Wyatt grew one and a half inches! I guess that is about it for now.
