Wyatt's new love

Wyatt has a new love.  Slides!  We took him to the school playground the other day and he loved the slides.  He finally figured out how to climb up the slide in our back yard so he did that over and over the other day.
He smiles all the way down.
He could climb up and do it by himself, but that left leg always got stuck.  He didn't mind, he would just slide down that way and usually face plant on the grass. 
He had to clap for himself every time he went down the slide. 
Love that cute face!  He loves to be outside.  Whenever we get home from going somewhere he tries to make a break for it (since the kids think they need to unbuckle him).  He cries when I pick him up and take him inside. 
Today Jonah had a Halloween parade in front of his pre-school. I lost track of time so we had to rush out the door (that happens way too often lately).  I forgot to grab Wyatt's shoes in my mad rush.  I was trying to hold him, but I finally gave up and let him walk around in his socks.  I love kids in their over sized coats.  He couldn't even get his hands out of the sleeves. He didn't care, as long as he was unrestrained and walking around outside.
I have been excited for Wyatt to wear this Halloween costume.  Jonah wore it when he was Wyatt's age and he looked adorable.  I was a little worried Wyatt wouldn't want to keep it on so we tried it on for fun the other day.
He loved it.  He kept looking at himself in the mirror and laughing.  He loves dogs so it is the perfect costume for him.  He would look in the mirror and say, "da do" (that is his word for everything, but he says it most often for dog). 
He was mad when I took it off.  He brought it to me today and wanted me to put it on him again.  This is a good sign, hopefully he keeps it up for Halloween!
Here is a picture of Caitlyn and Jonah the year that Jonah was the dog.  Everyone thinks Wyatt looks just like Jonah. I think they look similar, but I still think he looks more like Caitlyn.  How did my kids grow up so fast?
