Just Beachy

Today we took an impromptu trip to Rehoboth beach (oh the things we will do for pizza cravings). We were so glad we did too because Wyatt was really feeling the water this time. When he was younger he was pretty wary of the water but now he is a wave chaser! While we were walking on the boards he pointed to the ocean and kept shouting "water, water, water" so we decided to take him over to see what he would do. Wyatt had a ball! Here he is with Momma getting ready for the waves. The water was pretty cold but it was still really nice to feel on your feet. Wyatt would laugh whenever the waves would suck back some of the sand and he would sink down.

Mommy and Wyatt did some digging in the sand too. Mommy tried to make a sand crab but it didn't turn out too well.

Then it was right back into the water! Here is Wyatt and Momma just after a huge wave came up and got both of us soaking wet-we look like we are dancing.

Here is Wyatt and Momma waiting for that next big wave to make its way over to us. Wyatt was really good and held on to Mommy's hands really tight.

Bye Bye Beach

Hello OC rides!!! Next we drove over to Ocean City to do some rides and play some games. Wyatt loves to play the games and is becoming a skee ball pro- well kind of. He had a blast on the rides and even got to ride on his very first rollercoaster the Super Duper Looper. This was a ride even Daddy remembered riding when he was a little one. Wyatt did a great job and handled those hills like a pro!
He even tried to take his hands off and hold them in the air.

and outside of Pirates Cove. Wyatt was obsessed with those talking birds so it was hard to get him to look at the camera. Daddy said "Look there's Wade" (one of the kids from Wyatt's class) so that is why Wyatt is looking a little puzzled.

Looks like Grandpa has himself another firefighter!

It was a great day and a great way to spend some quality family time. We are so lucky to live so close to the beach and I know it was great for Wyatt to get to spend some time with sand in his air and ocean water in his underoos.

Easter Fun with Grandma and Pappy

Today there was supposed to be the Annual Egg Hunt in Middletown but it was really rainey so we didn't get to do an egg hunt but Wyatt did get lots of cool prizes. Then we met up with Grandma and Pappy and went to the toy store for some Easter fun. They had a fun 3-D scavenger hunt where you had to follow clues to find the stations with the stickers.

At the end there was a 3-D station where people could draw with 3-D chalk.

Afterward we all headed back to the house to dye some Easter eggs. Here is Wyatt with an egg:

Wyatt tried to be very careful with his eggs. Some of them cracked a little so he would bring them to Pappy who had the salt already to feast on some yummy eggs.

We are just getting started here:

Wyatt and Grandma pulling out a beautiful blue egg

And a yellow one too

Wyatt was very proud of his eggs

He did a great job and was pretty good with the spoon although he def thought it was a lot easier just sticking his hand in. Afterward his hands were all multicolored.

Wyatt taking his egg dyeing very seriously.

He looks so surprised it turned out so well

Afterward Wyatt took the box of Cheez-its and rested with Pappy.

Wyatt's finished eggs. We got the Sesame Street theme:

Hippity Hoppity- Meeting the Easter Bunny

After going to see a movie about monkeys and elephants Wyatt and William got a super surprise when their Mommys and Daddys decided to make an impromptu surprise visit to the Bunny himself. Wyatt and William were so excited to see the Bunny this year. They both did a great job seeing the Easter Bunny and sitting on his lap.

I was actually wondering what Wyatt enjoyed more the Easter Bunny or his fan.

The Easter Bunny had all sorts of cool things for the kids to play with. Wyatt and William loved their new prizes and sure showed their silly sides.

Taaaa Daaaaaaaa.....

And some more hip hops

First Dentist Appointment

Today was Wyatt's very first trip to the dentist. He wasn't worried at all becasue Wyatt knows he is a very good brusher. When we got to Dr. Broring's office Wyatt was so excited to see lots of toys!

He was a really patient patient while Daddy got his teeth cleaned. Wyatt did get a little curious though so we headed back to take a look. Dr. Broring let Wyatt help him by counting Daddy's teeth. Daddy had 14 teeth on the bottom and 14 teeth on the top- so they are all still there :)

Then it was Wyatt's turn. At first Mommy thought she would have to have Wyatt on her lap but he was really ready for his exam and he climbed right into the chair and laid back. Wyatt got really excited when Dr. Broring took him for a ride in the chair. He went way up. Then he showed Wyatt how to pour water into the cup for when he needed to rinse and taught him how to spit like a big boy.

Here is Wyatt all ready to get his teeth cleaned.

He did very good and held his mouth open very wide. They counted Wyatt's teeth too, Wyatt had 10 teeth on the bottom and 8 teeth on the top. His two year old molars aren't quite in yet so Dr. Broring warned Mommy and Daddy that Wyatt would be really cranky when those came in.

Wyatt had no cavities so he got to pick a special prize (a bounsey ball) and he got to pick a toothbrush. Wyatt was so proud of his tigger toothbrush. He kept talking about Tigger bouncing. Wyatt was very brave and did such a good job. Next appointment is in 6 months.

Blowin in the Wind

Today Mommy and Wyatt decided to visit Grandma and Pappy for the day. Wyatt was very excited to see Pappy and to get to walk around with him. Here is Pappy and Wyatt in Grandma and Pappy's front yard. Afterward we went to lunch at the Olive Garden and then we headed over to Middletown Park to take advantage of the nice windy day. Here is Wyatt flying his very first kite!

The day before Mommy and Daddy bought Wyatt a cool car kite...

I know this looks a little Ben Franklin in the lightening storm but the day was actually perfect to fly a kite. The sky was clear and boy was the wind blowing. Pappy put the kite together and right when we got out of the car it started to take off.

The kite flew very high in the sky

and it stayed up there for a really long time

Mommy took over the kite flying duties while Wyatt and Grandma went over to the playground to play.

Wyatt proving he is one strong

and determined little guy. Look Wy-wy you're almost as tall as Pappy

Wyatt decided to show his daredevil side and went down the slide backwards, no worries he made it to the bottom safe and sound.

And then he was ready to go back again. Wyatt got to try everything, he even got to slide down the firepole (with some help from Mommy and Pappy).

Wyatt saw a bigger kid using the monkey bars and he couldn't resist. He actually did a really great job getting across

Wyatt getting in the rhythm...he'll be doing it all by himself before you know it but for right now Bubs needed Mommy to help a little.

It was a great way to get outside and play. We all had a great time hanging out, playing on the playground, and flying the kite. I know Wyatt is looking forward to some more windy days!
