Sometimes two is easier but sometimes...

Oliver keeps taking Wyatt's toys. He takes it away and then shoves it in Wyatt's mouth. Then he takes it away and puts it where Wyatt can't reach it. Then Wyatt cries. Oliver knocks Wyatt down 100 times a day...yes! 100! That's not an exaggeration! He pushes Wyatt's hands off the stuff he's trying to pull up on. He takes the pacifier away when Wyatt's sleeping and that, of course, wakes him up. Right now he's headbutting him...really softly but still...

I guess that makes it sound horrible but there are times that make up for the crazy. Oliver likes to snuggle Wyatt when he's getting ready to go to sleep. He tries to share his food. He helps wipe Wyatt's nose when it's runny and brings me a diaper when he needs to be changed. He likes to give him the paci (even after he takes it away) and "helps" feed him his cereal and his snacks. Sometimes he brings him a toy when he's fussy.

I know Oliver loves Wyatt and Wyatt loves Oliver. Sometimes they really act like brothers...take that either way you want.

Wyatt...

he's pulling up now. he did it in his crib for the first time on Sunday. He's also crawling and getting from his belly to sitting. I can't believe how fast he's growing up! Every day it's something new. He's still only got one tooth but he's working hard on that second one. He wants to do everything Oliver does so he's getting so strong! He also wants food - all the time...my food, Oliver's food, Bob's food...any food that gets within his sight is in danger. He'll try anything! He likes most everything, too, although he still doesn't like peas. He gets graham crackers and Gerber puffs and I gave him cruched up pieces of goldfish today. He doesn't seem to be allergic to anything either. He sleeps really well, starting out in his crib (which is in Oliver's room) but usually ending up in bed with me after about an hour or two. He also still wakes up at least once to eat.

So that's my baby...although I guess I won't be able to call him a baby for much longer
