Cousins come to play

Jande had her baby, little Ally Rochelle, on Dec 19th. She weighed 7lb 15oz, just like wyatt! The rest of the kids came to stay at moms for a night and boy did they all have a party. Jilayne's kids came down too. Wyatt doesn't get to play with Brayden very often, but they sure hit it off and really had fun together. They watched Kung Fu Panda 2 and wyatt had to sit by brayden the whole time!

Eppich Party

Wyatt got his first christmas gift from Grandpa Eppich and Grandma Anita. Surprisingly, he knew exactly what to do with it. He jumped the gun a little and opened before everyone else did. This child really doesn't understand "no." He got a coloring book, crayons, and a top-which he loves to try and spin himself! We went caroling this night too, but Brock stayed home with Wyatt because they both had not been feeling that great. Poor brock has been battling a head cold for about 1.5weeks. He is getting better, but it's weird because normally he is the one that skips the sicknesses.

Holiday Baking

We didn't do a lot of candy baking this year. Just a few pretzel sticks and oreo balls. I love these pictures of wyatt and brooklyn. We don't have very many of them together. Both their smiles crack me up!

S.A.N.T.A !!!

Since Wyatt didn't get to see Santa last year, I think we've made up for it this year! He has seen Santa 4x now. Back in La Grande at Walmart, at the Mesa craft show, the CBW chirstmas party and the BC ward christmas party. He has done great and liked him every time. By the 3rd time, he actually was kicking me and pushing to go see him. He was smiling and helped his cousin Paisley not be scared. They did great!

Afterward I was trying to get them to show me their bags and Wyatt just randomly went over and was trying to hug and kiss Pais. Normally she is all for this stuff, but he caught her off gaurd. So cute!

Um....yes, by the 3rd time seeing Santa, he knew there were treats in the bag. I caught him digging in!

Another funny thing about the CBW party. They had the mutual age kids on the stage singing Silent Night and all the sudden I see Wyatt running and jumping around on the stage in front of them all. Seriously, so embarrassing! He has a VERY hard time sitting still. So we kinda just let him run around that night and it back fired!!!

This was at the BC ward party. We had to decorate our own table, so mom took these fun santa hats. Wyatt and Chandler had fun seeing Santa together. These boys are BEST of friends. Their eyes literally light up when they see eachother. They are starting to get into things too. Brock caught them hiding behind a side table eating choc the other day. Wyatt opens the doors and then then sneak outside, and very recently they have started shutting the door behind them so we don't know they are gone! And poor brooklyn is stuck in the middle of all these boys, sometimes they aren't nice to her either :(

This and That

We are so grateful to my parent's for letting us stay with them for a whole month. It is hard coordinating everyone's schedules now that Sarah is home too, but we have a lot of fun together! Here are a few of the daily things we've been doing.

 Brock has some great talent and as our college days are close to being over, I can't wait to take advantage of his talent. As for now, he has been making these SUPER cute chunky shelfs and saling them on craigslits. He sold 2 in one day, and has 2 more to make for sales within the family. I was so sad to see them leave, they are so much cuter in real life. I posted this picture so we don't forget to make me one in the future! :)



Home for the Holidays

Brock was able to get done with finals early and we came home December 6th. He doesn't go back to school til January 9th, yep, a whole month off! We got to my mom's to find a tore up bathroom. This is the only bathroom with a tub, so Wyatt had to adjust to the shower. He screamed the first few times, and hated it. Now he loves them and screams when he comes out. Dad had started the bathroom Dec. 6th, and it is just about done today, Dec. 23rd. It has been EXTREMELY difficult keeping Wyatt away from all the commotion going on in there. Brock has been helping throughout the process, so that makes it even harder to keep Y away from his daddy. Y can open doors and is constantly going outside because he see the guys going in and out. Y also sneaks into the bathroom a lot and get very dirty. I have been doing lots of laundry! It has been great for Brock to help out. He helped out just a few days with Chad's house last Christmas and today I told him he will be very prepared for when we are redoing our house....oh but that will be a LONG while!

December in La Grande

We weren't in La Grande for much of December, but we did enjoy every day of it. The night before we left Steve and Alysha Lester brought over hot choc and we had some together. This is wyatt's first taste of it and he LOVED it! He drank all mine!
