Whatever Works!

Its funny the things you do to get your kids to eat and sleep.

For the last little while, Wyatt has not been interested in food.
You've all prolly seen a Christmas story where the little brother
only eats dinner when showing his mom how the piggy eats.
Well, Wyatt has been pretending to be a dog lately.
He will crawl around on all fours and bark. Even lick our faces.
So the other night when he was being our dog instead of eating dinner,
I thought Id just try it!
I put his dinner on the floor with a bowl of water and said,
"here puppy, eat your dinner!"
amazingly enough......he ate it!!
now when he pretends to be a dog, he will eat off the floor!




Other funny news.
Wyatt has been sleeping under a laundry basket
for almost 3 weeks now.
even for nap time!
We have been having a hard time staying in bed to go to sleep.
So, I just put the basket over him when he was
going to sleep to make it more fun.
He loves it. He totally stays in bed under his
basket and goes to sleep ALL NIGHT.
He even gives us goodnight kisses through the little holes.
If he gets up to grab toys,
he will climb back into bed and put his basket over him.
The basket stays on all night!
It really is funny.
Now when we tuck him in for sleep, he always asks for it.




Miles is doing well too!
We have started feeding him baby food.
He will only open his mouth for bananas!! Nothing else!!
He is sitting up, and rolling over, and filling our house with his LOUD noises!
I Love It!!
My boys are sooooo much FUN!!!
