Count down to Noon?

Wyatt, my Mom, my niece Neriah and my sister Rachel went to a "Count Down To Noon!" Party at the Tree house Museum.

I made sure that we got there an hour early because last year we went on time and it was already packed with kids and we didn't get tickets to the magic show because it was sold out but this year we got tickets to the FIRST showing!  phew...

As we waited for the party to officially start we went to their art garden and made New Years hats.

 

 

After that we played with the toys and ran around until they announced that it was almost time to "drop the ball." As we all gathered around the party area they handed out treat bags that had streamers and blow horns. Which then of course my mom took it upon her self to teach Wyatt just how to use.

   

He played with that thing the whole time while we waited for the count down to began.

Then it started...

&

People began to yell...

10...

9...

8...

7...

6...

5...

4...

3...

2...

1!

They dropped bouncy balls, Streamers flu in the air and pop guns went off (which scared Wyatt.) as we shouted as loud as we could...

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

As soon as the New Year ended the New one began.

We picked up our things and headed off for the magic show.

 

The show was amazing! (well at least to the young kids... lol I knew how he did everything.)

   

The magician was funny, the kids laughed but Wyatt was a little confused about what was going on until he brought out his silly bunny then he loved it.

      

After the party we went out to eat came home took a loooooong nap and then hurried off to our friends house were the adults got to celebrate the New Year coming in by playing Xbox, eating a ton of food and drinking sparking cinder after the ball dropped.

Which Wyatt was asleep for. 

GOODBYE 2010 & HELLO 2011!

Sometimes there is more important things to do then dishes.

I have been putting doing these off for days.

The type of person that I am always puts FUN things before chores. Which pisses Cody off more than anything else since he’s the type of person who puts chores or in his case work before FUN.  With that being said I found any type of excuse to tell him so I can continue to put off them off.

Yesterday my excuse was…

I’ve worked the last 3 days in row.

Phh… I know I know  its not an excuse but still I got home at SIX that's difently not enough time to do them.

Right?

Now its not only the dishes that haven't been done. I have NOT cleaned the bathroom for a few days. uh… ok its pushing onto a week… but still

The laundry has been in this basket for a week and a half.

and its still in the basket as I write this…

HEY AT LEAST THEY ARE CLEAN!

and Wyatt’s room looks like this…

 

Okay so I might not be very good at being a housewife but I feel like I am an excellent mother and here’s ONE of my many reasons why…

EVERY Monday I take Wyatt to his Toddler Time/Music class at the Tree house.

This day was the first time that Wyatt followed EVERY DIRECTION with out me showing him how… I was so proud of him that I seriously had tears of joy in my eyes.

I felt like a dork wiping them away but I just couldn’t help it he literally was growing up in front of me.

I took a billion pictures and I tried to narrow them down to a few million so I’m sorry for the ridiculous amount of pictures… I just could help myself

This is Spencer and Mrs… umm… I just forgot her name at the piano at the start of the class. 

Here’s Wyatt touching his toes during the song “head shoulders knees and toes…”

Here’s he is counting his fingers…

Spenser was so impressed by Wyatt that he chose him to “be an example” of how to do the “running” song  

He even sat threw the WHOLE story!

and played Ring-Around-The-Roseys with out needing to hold my hand once.

When it was all over he came up to me so proud that he did everything all on his own with out needed me. I truly believe that it was because I have always let him know that regardless of what's going on I will ALWAYS be just a few steps away just enough to give him the space to grow and learn all on his own and that's exactly what he did today.

 

So with dishes piling up at home the laundry unfolded and the bathroom a little stinky I can sit here and say that those things don't matter as much as being there for my son and allowing him to accomplish things he didn't know that he could

as I watched in awe.
