The Weekend

It's been a while since I've posted anything. Busy as usual. Wyatt was sick last Thursday and Friday. I took him to the Dr. and he had bronchitis. He was never too bad, but is much better. However, as a result, he has been used to staying at the house and not wanting to leave! So Saturday morning Carson made him go to work with him. Wyatt fought him, hard! It was terrible and sad to watch. Wyatt was screaming and bawling and asking Tatum to help him!! He just didn't want to leave the house and didn't want to go to work. Lots of hits were given by him to Carson and he sobbed incessantly! It was horrible to watch. Carson called once they got down the road and Wyatt was fine. He did say that once Wyatt was in the car, he told Carson, "Carson... this is going to be a terrible day for me. I just want you to know!". But it didn't take but 20 minutes of Wyatt helping Daddy load his big truck with a full load of cattle for him to be happy. He kept telling Carson that he was loading too many in the trailer and that it wasn't going to hold them all. He was quite the help, Carson said! He came home so happy and told me, "Shelley.... my trailer looks good in poop! " Ha! I'm trying to work on him calling me Mommy, again. I don't like when he calls me Shelley. Oh well. He's been pretty good and plays hard with his sister!
We went to Sunday School and Church Sunday and Wyatt was great! We went out to eat and saw Mrs. Millican and Mrs. Archer (his teachers from school). He was soooo excited to see them. Especially after missing 2 days of school last week! Carson and I got Ashly Keim to come babysit yesterday afternoon and the kids had a ball! They LOVE her! She's the best! She really plays with them. They did not want her to leave! It's nice knowing you can leave and your kids are in good hands and happy to be there! Well, off to get Wyatt from the school bus. I have some pictures to download when I get to my other camera. Hopefully it won't take me too long!

Dress Up!


Here's Gus, Tatum, Sage & Wyatt! We went to Sahala's and the kids had a ball playing! Of course, they changed clothes several times and played hard! The girls were princesses and Wyatt was our typical naked cowboy! (Check out those belts!) Anyway, we're glad they're all friends and have eachother!!



The Playhouse

Tatum asked if she could scramble me some eggs, (again!). She loves to cook and told me she's the best cook in the world! We're going to bake cookies after her nap.
Wyatt and Tatum are playing SO well together lately. I am so grateful. They're best friends and I love that they have each other. They played outside yesterday, in the playhouse. I was spying on them and they were pretending to sell "things". Tatum purchased a shotgun from Wyatt for "50 dollars, Mom!" What a steal! Then one of them would run outside of the playhouse, around to the window and pretend to order something. One time I went to the window and Wyatt opened it. He told me, "Sorry Sir. But we're not open today!" As he slammed the window in my faced and laughed hysterically. Carson and I were actually able to watch the football game on Sunday while they played outside in the playhouse. After a while, Wyatt asked, "Sir? Would you like to come to the show?" So I went out there and they had their money and table set up and were putting on a show! It was priceless. They were trying to offer me their chairs and hula hoops to play with and I suppose this was part of their 'show'. Anyway, I believe things are looking up and are going to be o.k.
