This weekend I was feeling a bit nostalgic, so I flipped through some old photos & albums from when Wyatt was born. Since we only have about 4 weeks till #2 is here, I am trying to brush up on as many memories as I can from when W was a tiny baby.
For those that know me well, you know about my infamous feeding/sleeping schedule that I kept diligently for 54 weeks. I knew it would pay off, now that #2 is on the way I have been looking back at it as I remember what Wyatt's feeding & sleeping schedule was like - all I can say is I only PRAY that we get so lucky again...
On page 2 of the spreadsheet is a chart of "milestones" - basically my notes of what Wyatt was up to over the weeks & months that passed. It stopped at about 15 months when he began walking (running), and I was wishing that I had kept up with it more. As my friend Abby is always telling me though, this blog is sort of like a digital baby book, so I have reminders on here as well.
Today as I was looking through the milestones, I didn't realize that one was happening right behind me! Wyatt, who is NEVER interested in coloring or crafting, had taken to drawing with some crayons he found in my desk & a piece of paper from the printer. I turned around to see this, which he said was a picture of himself swimming underwater: (for the untrained eye, this is a stick man with 2 eyes & a smile & some "crazy" hair, as Wyatt described it)

His first real drawing - There is nothing that melts my heart more than a good kid's drawing - especially of people & faces. Who know's if he'll ever repeat it, but it is up on the fridge with name & date to mark the occasion!

So glad someone else was as OCD as I was with keeping up with a schedule and even had the same format in an excel document. :)
