Wyatt Stephen

Yesterday, January 16th, 2012, Paige and Mike's baby boy was finally born! He was 10 lbs. 6 oz. and 23 inches long. What a big boy! Today, Ben, Jack and I went to the Buffalo Hospital to meet him for the first time. 

Even though he is so big for a newborn, he made Jack seem like a giant! I am so excited to see them grow up together like Paige and I did. 

Welcome to the world Wyatt :)

Goodnight

I had sweet potatoes for dinner. Daddy says I look like a chipmunk when I'm eating because I shove the chunks into my mouth faster than I can chew and swallow them. I can't help it, sweet potatoes are just so good!

When I was done eating I got to play in the bathtub with mommy! After 20 minutes, I still didn't want to get out. Mommy said the water was starting to get cold so I dried off and got my jammies on. We played a little and practiced standing before it was bedtime. 

Sweet dreams, sleep tight, don't let the bedbugs bite! - What a good night.

Back to School

Today was my second day of class. I am taking Into to Business at Anoka Ramsey Community College. The class is Monday, Wednesday, Friday 9:00 - 9:50 am.

take the rest of the night from there.... Put Jack to bed, homework, relax, etc....

I'm loving this busy feeling!

That's only Monday, Wednesday, Friday though. I'm glad I have Tuesdays and Thursdays with Jack, and the weekends with Ben.

Hello 2012

My Daily Horoscope:

This is the beginning of the first full weekend of 2012. How will you spend it, Aries? You may have complained that 2011 left you will very few opportunities to advance certain goals. You may be hoping to get ahead this year - but what will you do differently to get what you want? Instead of allowing the next few days to slip through your fingers, take the initiative and start moving toward your first goal - even if you just take a few small steps. You can get what you're dreaming of, but you have to start now, and you have to keep trying.

I am looking forward to what this year will bring - I have a feeling it will be a good one!

Jack's first Christmas

Iwish I would have gotten more pictures from this year's Christmas celebrations...
Here are a few:

Nystrom Christmas - December 17th






The cousins (except Cam)


Christmas Eve









The walker from grandma and grandpa





Christmas Day

Trick-or-Treat!

First we went met Grandma at work so Jack could show off his Halloween costume - a Panda!

Next we Trick-or-Treated at Adrianne's house.

Then we went inside to play with cousin Amelia.

I made Jack's costume with Grandma Shirley's guidance.

Amelia was the cutest Garden Gnome!

Our last stop was Trick-or-Treating at Kristi and Dawn's house.

What a great first Halloween for Jack.
