I got one small little smile from Paige today, packing her up in her carseat to head out for a walk. Poor kid had a rough day. For whatever reason, she just could not stay asleep - she was up from her last nap at 11am and only went down again at 9:45. She had a few cat naps throughout the afternoon, but woke up after 5 or 10 minutes each time. Sleep is such a fickle bitch.

What a goof. :)

So, I realize you can hardly see either kids' face in this picture, but that's not really important. What's important here is that Wyatt voluntarily approached Paige and stayed within arms reach of her for more than 2 seconds. It is a small victory, but I will take it.

8 weeks old today! I am starting to see the similarites between her and Wyatt now - when she was first born, I could see it, but as the weeks went on, I didn't anymore. Now, in some of the photos I can see why people think they look alike, but in real life, her features are a little more....delicate (not sure if that is the word I am looking for) than his. But I imagine once she is older, there will be no mistaking that they are siblings.

What a goof. This kid really likes his chocolate milk when Josh makes it. You see, when I make it, I add just enough syrup to colour it. And Josh adds enough syrup to make a spoon stand straight up on it's own. Needless to say, Wyatt always asks for daddy to make his chocolate milk.
We had a nice Sunday, a friend's son's 1st birthday at the firehall - which thrilled Wyatt to no end. We've been planning to have his 3rd birthday party there for a while anyway, but now I know for sure he'll love it. We didn't get to do much else though, it is just TOO hot outside. Which is like explaining rainbows and unicorns to a toddler, by the way.

We had some family pictures done today (finally). I bought Paige a fancy little headband, which I think is adorable. The first 30 minutes or so went fairly well, but then Wyatt lost patience and spent the rest of the time pouting. Josh's sister and 2 kids came along for some pictures too, and those two were even more uncooperative than Wyatt. All I wanted was ONE good one of our family, so hopefully we accomplished that.

She looks terribly impressed, I have a feeling I'll be seeing this look a lot in the teen years. :P
