Making Christmas Cookies



Wyatt had a lot of fun helping make Christmas cookies this year! He enjoyed pushing the cookie cutters into the dough, but I think his favorite part was dumping sprinkles on the cookies!

Wyatt's Winter Party




We had a small birthday party for Wyatt this year. We invited some family and friends to come help Wyatt celebrate turning two! I decided on a winter theme and had "snow" balls for the kids to play in, snowflakes hanging from the ceiling, and all the kids got to make an ornament for their Christmas tree. Wyatt had a blast and loved having hot chocolate and cookies with his favorite people!

Our Christmas Tree



We had fun cutting down our Christmas tree this year and the weather was beautiful. Wyatt loved romping through the tree farm in his boots and helping us pick out the perfect tree!

Wyatt Turns 2




Wyatt had a great birthday this year and really got into opening his gifts. He was more excited about the paper than what was inside but of course he loves all his new toys now! He even ate his birthday cupcake this year after blowing out his candle all by himself- such a big boy now!

Family Picture


We enjoyed our Thanksgiving at home this year and managed to get a pretty good family photo taken!

Multnomah Falls





During the last week of my Summer vacation we decided to take a few day trips to try and full fill our Summer to do list. We headed up the George to Multnomah Falls for a short hike. The Falls are always beautiful, even on rainy days. But that day was not rainy at all, it was gorgeous and warm! Wyatt took a ride in the Ergo, enjoyed looking at nature and having a snack during the hike. After our quick trip up the steep path we hiked back to the car and headed a little further into the George, to Hood River and had a great lunch at Full Sail Brewery! It was a great day and a beautiful drive!

Children"s Museum






Summer was coming to a close and one of the things I wanted to do with Wyatt was take him to the Children's Museum. I knew he would love it; but wanted to avoid the crowds because he can get a little wild when he gets excited :) He had a blast! He especially loved the water room and the transportation room; mainly the train table!
