Sunday with the DeWitt's

Happy Sunday to everyone! Our day has been filled with excitement and since it is nap time I thought I would write a little before Preston wakes up and it is time to play outside! Everyone knows how much Preston loves his dinosaurs, so this morning we made a dinosaur park out of tuperware. He thought it was really cool. The morning was filled with lots of rars from the little guy, as he calls them.

Rars get hungry after playing for awhile so we had to feed them cheerios! you know dinosaurs love Cheerios! Preston fed each one of them, so we had to have lots of Cheerios to share. He did snack a few bites, but he insisted that the rars ate the rest!

As much as Preston likes Dinosaurs, kitty kitty's rate the second highest. The cats like the fresh air, and Preston had to ruin their fun! Preston did save a few cheerios to share with baby! however Preston took a bits and only gave Chase half. He didn't have enough to share!Chase has learned to crawl, so it is hard to catch him looking at you for pictures. This was a point where there was a quick stop in between moving towards the door.

Nine Months Old Today!

What a little tough guy! I think it is so cute. He is wearing Preston's jeans and hat, and they fit!

Chase is usually not allowed to play with this toy since it is his big brother's, but he thought it was cool!

Can you tell that Chase was not happy with me in this picture! I think his little bottom was cold, but I thought it would be CUTE!

It is hard to believe that our little boy is nine months old today. This picture captures him perfectly. I ordered a print of this to go over his crib and I am SO excited to see it! I just loved it! Many people said that Gap should see this picture and that he might be there new baby model. I did send it in to them! Chase is now crawling. Preston is loving telling his brother no when he gets into things. Last night Preston actually tryed to pick him up, by the neck. Oh my, I'm in trouble. Preston is really coming along with his speech. He's saying several more words and when you sing songs he will tilt his head back and forth and try to sing with you. He doesn't know the words, but he sings anyways. SO CUTE! He knows what part comes next in some of the songs, so he always has a kiss waiting and a hug!

Preston is a BIG BOY

Hi Everyone! Mom just reminded me that I have not updated the blog in awhile! Things have been very busy in our house. It seems as though we are always running. Preston used the potty like a big boy last night. I think all the pee pee dancing and cheering Matt and I were doing cracked Preston up. We just wanted to let him know how happy we were that he was using his potty. Preston would dribble a drop and then jump up and clap and cheer. He sat back down and continued doing this for about twenty minutes. The proud Mommy that I am got the camera out although I have been told by Matt and Mom that I am SICK! Hey, I am just a proud mama! I will save everyone from posting those pictures, however I can't promise they won't be on this year's DVD!

Chase is sitting up and trying so hard to crawl. He can get from room to room by scooting around on his butt! I guess that is the Auntie Mel in him, SCOOTER! Chase will say Ah Oh all the time as well as Da Da. Preston and Chase have Ah Oh battles where one will say it and then the other will repeat and it just goes on and on. Preston is really taking a liking to Chase and if we turn and pretend not to pay attention Preston is heard talking to Chase. Chase just giggles. The boys seem to get cuter and cuter everyday. Can't wait to share more pictures as soon as I download them to the computer!

We have a busy weekend coming up, this weekend we are going to Grandma and Grandpa's for a visit. We are excited to see them as well as excited to see the other DeWitt's! I am sure that we will have a lot of fun pictures to post from our visit as well as lots to write about!
Stay Tuned!

Eight Months Old

Our wild man is eight months old. It is hard to believe that that much time has passed. This picture is typical Chase trying to eat the side of my face. He is so Strong. I don't ever remember Preston being this strong. I actually think Chase is stronger than Preston at this time. Chase is a kid who knows what he wants and will do whatever he can to get it. He throws him self backwards to be able to reach for things that he can't reach when he is sitting. I am actually scared of him crawling. Chase will be into everything. As soon as I get a chance to upload more eight month pics I will, there are several cute ones!

Chaser

I can't believe it, but Chase will be eight months on Saturday. It is hard to believe! He is having his pictures today, but I couldn't resist putting up my favorite picture of him so far!

This picture is just so Chase. Hair standing straight up in the air and a big old grin on his face. Most of the time Chase is just such a happy baby. Although he can get really cranky right before he falls asleep. Chase has four teeth already. I can't believe it! It is hard to believe that he will be one year old this summer. This time around it feels like things are flying by!

Mr. Potato Head lost his glasses?

Mr. Potato Head lost his glasses, does anyone know where they went?

Well when you find them will you let Preston know, he's been looking for them! Every time I look at this it cracks me up! He is too funny!

Chase loves his blanket. It was sent to him from Kristin and Chris, his Godparents! They are the BEST! The kids always get wonderful little surprise's in the mail from them. Preston received a Superman music card for his birthday in December from Kristin and Chris and every time I ask him if he wants to read he brings me the card. When he opens it and hears the music he laughs and closes it quickly. It actually gets to the point that I have to take it away for a little while! I know mean Mommy!

Last weekend we had a day where the temperature was almost 80 degrees. You better believe that we got the kids out and went for a long walk. Here are a few pictures from our fun afternoon.After we were done with our walk we decided to let Preston eat one of the ice cream bars that he picked out earlier that day.

Ok so it was a huge mess, but he was proud of himself for eating it like a big boy! Earlier that day Preston and I went to HyVee to get some groceries. I decided since it was a nice day to let him pick out ice cream for later. Preston picked out the Nestle Crunch bars. I tried to by something else but he really wanted the Crunch bars. Preston would not let go of the box he held onto it for dear life. While we were walking towards the cash register Preston decided to let everyone know how excited he was about getting crunch bars. He kissed and hugged all over the box. Those who saw thought it was really funny. My poor kid is so deprived, he was that excited over an ice cream bar!

DeWitt Family Fun

I always thought shaving cream was an interesting texture and I thought Preston would enjoy playing with it. I have also have heard that it is a good textile thing for kids to play with. We set up a little area in our kitchen to let Preston play. We did take his shirt off in order to control the clean up processes better. Preston really wasn't sure what to think, but it only took minutes for him to get into it. Preston started rubbing it and it just turned to foam. He laughed and giggled and would say WOW!

It didn't take long for Preston to smear shaving cream all over him.

Preston had SO much fun, especially since after we were done he then got to play in the bathtub for awhile!
